While we were at RV Driving School and RVers Boot Camp, we stayed at Rainbow’s End in Livingston Texas. Rainbow’s End is not your average RV campground. You can stay for a night or a week, and if you are an Escapee’s RV Club Member the cost is discounted. But people also stay for a …
From Places to Stay
Poverty Point Reservoir State Park
Yesterday I wrote about Poverty Point State Historic Site. Today I am going to tell you about the place we stayed – close to the State Historic Site, but not connected to it – Poverty Point Reservoir State Park. Poverty Point Reservoir State Park is on the southern side of a human-made reservoir. The unusual …
Paul B. Johnson State Park Mississippi
One of the things that Tom and I are really enjoying about our travels is the opportunity to explore small, out of the way places. For the most part, we try to stay in State Parks whenever possible. This allows us to experience an area thought to be of special beauty by the people in …
Anniston KOA
While we were in Anniston Alabama we stayed at the Anniston KOA (Kampgrounds of America) for four nights. As I mentioned before, many KOAs have minimal amenities and are located close to the interstate, which makes them good stops for people who need to move on down the road. The Anniston KOA was one of …
Bowling Green KOA
During our short stay in Bowling Green, Kentucky, the RV has been parked at the Bowling Green KOA (Kampgrounds of America). KOAs are not the most scenic places to stay, but they are generally quiet, close to the interstate, and easy to get into and out of. We have a member’s card and get a …
Lenawee County Fairgrounds
While we were in Adrian, we stayed at the Lenawee County Fairgrounds (the county name is pronounced lon’-a-way). I wouldn’t normally consider the Fairgrounds as a place to stay when RVing, but most Fairgrounds have spots for RVs at a relatively inexpensive price. Fairgrounds aren’t the most scenic places to stay, but it has been …
Waterloo State Recreation Area
Before we came to Adrian to work with Habitat, we stayed for five days at Waterloo State Recreation Area near Chelsea, Michigan. This is a beautiful area with dozens of small lakes – a fisher’s paradise! Waterloo State Recreation Area is spread out over 20,000 acres. We camped at Portage Lake Modern Campground, which means …
East Harbor State Park
While we have been up at Lakeside, we have been staying in East Harbor State Park. East Harbor State Park is a beautiful place that is surrounded by Lake Erie on three sides. It has lots of hiking trails, several playgrounds, a disc golf course, a nice campstore, two restaurants, a harbor, a mile-long beach …
Alum Creek State Park
While we were in Delaware (both times) we stayed at Alum Creek State Park. Ohio has many wonderful State Parks and they are generally cheaper, with larger campsites, than any of the private campgrounds. Alum Creek is no exception. Although there are 280 campsites, not counting the group camp areas, the sites are deep and …
Wolfies Campground
While we are here in Zanesville we have been staying at Wolfies Campground. There weren’t a lot of options in the area and we wanted something with full hook-ups after a week at Alum Creek with electric only. Wolfies Campground is a small but fully equipped private campground on TOP of a hill on the …
