Perhaps you just need a spot to stay for one or two nights and the amenities don’t matter to you. But perhaps you’re staying somewhere for one to two weeks (or longer) and the amenities are at least a bonus, if not important.
When looking at the list in the poll below, which top two of these do you most prefer at a campground or RV park? Is it that they have great Wi-Fi and a dog park? Or is it that the park is clean and has lots of space between sites?
Remember, you can vote for two items, so please pick your top two amenities before clicking “vote.” If you answer “other,” please leave a comment and tell us what that ‘”other” would be. We want to know! Thanks.
Good reliable power.
Besides having lots of room between spaces, I like lots of brush growing between for a bit of privacy. No huge rocks at the entrance of the site or rocks and dumpsters along the road where you can’t turn your car to back in the trailer, although that’s not an amenity. Quiet and dogs on leash.
And a nice view.
A swimming pool is nice sometimes but we prefer to have a laundry since we are full time. We have a combo washer and dryer in our RV and use it but it is faster to use one in the park also.
Pull through with no large rocks or trees at the entrance or exit of the site
pull through sites
Full hookups
For “other” I really would like a clean and good condition picnic table. Part of the outdoor camping experience is outdoor cooking, eating, game playing, and more. It doesn’t matter if you’re traveling in a tent or a Class A… You need a picnic table.
Our preferences, large, level sites with good utilities and quiet
Nice laundry facility is important for us.
Nice landscaping/trees
We are headed to Asheville NC for one night , I see the picture of Asheville KOA , has anyone been to either one of these RV parks? We are 45 feet with tow car.
The Asheville East KOA is a nice place if you have a site on the lake, but all sites are narrow. I would not recommend the sites that aren’t on the lake. Also, the dump is badly designed and requires turning your rig around to use it. We were there several weeks ago. I’d stay there again, preferably during the week.
Thank you. We looked at bear creek as well. But we had a tow car issue yesterday and had it towed to a Lincoln dealership in Little Rock. Something flew up and busted the transmission. So we are going to bypass Asheville.
We wish for natural tree shade, lake or river view, privacy and distance from next site(s). Power and water and a dump station. Think USPS, USFS, USCOE Mn SPks – perfect! Security too!
I would love enforced quiet and dog regulations. I am completely exasperated by rude and inconsiderate dog owners.
100% agree! Not all people are dog people and want to hear, be greeted by, or smell your dog.
Yes!
I have a dog. He does stay on leash at all times, he does not bark, and I pick up the poop. However, not many can seem to manage that. What’s worse are those with a retractable leash so they can ignore what the dog is doing and try to get to mine–even when I tell them to stop it.
Reliable power is my #1 desire .. meaning correct & consistent voltage.
Quiet with a view and more space between sites. Sometimes you just don’t want to look at scrubby bushes and trees!
I always look for a water view, if possible.
Me too. Anytime I can gaze out at water, the other stuff just doesn’t matter.
Level site, or one I can at least get to level.
Trees
No trees (Starlink) 😎
