As an RVillage gold member, we were offered 3 free nights at this new resort. We had visited the area before and knew it is remote, but wanted to see what they had to offer.

The resort is very new and most of the amenities were not available, so I won’t review them.

We checked in and were allowed to select our site from those available. There will be multiple loops, with sites along the outside of the loop being about 1.5 the lot size of those in the middle (in field). The sites are all on grass and back in, with the in field sites being back to back, with the exception of 10 pull through sites that have cement pads. All sites are 50/30 amp full hookups.

We selected an end site, further from the road. The resort was mostly empty, so we had lots of room, but I probably would have selected a site along the outside of the loop if it was busier. It was difficult to envision the park with lots of RV’s, but it felt like some of the sites might be a little tight when all are occupied.

We had to move around a bit to get level, but managed to not need blocks under our tires. Everyone was very friendly and they are working hard to get everything up and running, but still have a ways to go.

I didn’t see any wifi, but they advertise it, and we had decent signals on both AT&T and Verizon.

They already have installed lots of pickle ball and shuffleboard courts. The pool will have a spa and the clubhouse looks huge. They have a mail building, so I expect they are planning for annual residents.

Overall, it seems nice, but I was a little disappointed that they opted for grass pads and that they weren’t necessarily level. I also feel that the majority of the sites are a little small, but it was difficult to judge because there weren’t any RV’s in them.

There is a gas station in Webster that has meats and grocery basics and a farmers market once a week with fresh produce. The nearest grocery is in Bushnell, about 10 minutes away.

I can’t imagine I would come back, but I would stay here if I was in the area.

Site. 28

This is an interesting little park situated on the edge of Lunenburg. If you have a bigger rig, I definitely recommend coming in by 332, that bypasses the town. The streets in town are quite narrow with many being one way and the occasional stop sign at a very steep angle. Big rigs are in the upper loop, which will be the first that you see. If you drive past and up to the visitor center to check in, you will have to loop around a park, which might not be easy for some rigs.

The upper loop is for the larger rigs, with many of the sites having sewer. We had an E/W site, 30 amp, that we backed in to. Our friends site was just past the check in booth, with their living space, literally, the interior road of the campground. They put up a couple barriers beside their RV to avoid any possible problems.

Our site was pretty tight, especially when we had neighbors, even when they were small. We had a picnic table, but it was debatable whether it was ours or the neighbors, and we lost the use of it a couple of days. It was weird, but we had more living space inside and they needed the table, so we didn't worry about it. We had trees behind us, but there weren't many in the rest of the upper campground. The restrooms were controlled by passcode and my husband said they were clean, but we didn't use them.

The upper campground was empty most of our stay, but filled up when a caravan came in, taking all of the sewer sites. It was quite the transformation! Fortunately they were friendly and not late night partiers. The upper campground road is a single loop and one of the caravaners got assigned a site that was actually part of the road, to the right just inside the entrance, blocking the loop. We were planning on driving through what was now his site to access the dump station when we left, but had to back up to the dump station since the loop was blocked.

The sites are gravel, with grass around the sites in the middle of the loop. Access for big rigs wasn't bad, but was easier when we arrived and the campground was mostly empty.

The park is walking distance to town, but be aware that town is down some very steep hills. Walking back up was fairly strenuous for a flat lander like me. We drove into town, but it gets very crowded on weekends and parking was extremely difficult to find. If you don't mind the hills, I highly recommend walking.

Based on our experience in the upper loop, I wouldn't call this campground a destination, the town is the destination. But, the location is great and there is a lot to do, so if I ever wanted to visit Lunenburg again, I would definitely stay here again.

This campground is located just outside of Annapolis Royal right on the Bay of Fundy with beautiful views. We splurged on a premium waterfront site and we're not disappointed. We received two sites, side by side, to accommodate our large fifth wheel. The site aren't deep, so we angled in and managed to fit. The utilities were a little strange, we had an RV next to us using the sewer hookup next to our electric and water, so we had to run the hose under the RV and the sewer hookup was right next to our front steps. Fortunately we thought about it when we were backing in and managed to have the sewer to the side of our steps and almost under the RV.

We were traveling with friends in a class A and they pulled in so that their view would be out their front window, also giving us a shared living space. Since we had two sites each, there is an extra set of utilities that are located between us, but they really weren't in the way.

The best part of this campground is the view, it really is beautiful. While there were sites between us and the Bay, we were higher up and had no problems with the view.

The sites are grass and ours were really level. The campground roads are gravel. We had no trees in our area, but the non waterfront sites had some around. There is a heated pool, which we didn't use. We didn't use the bathhouse either.

There is no cell service here, at all, but they do have wifi and it was usable. The have a laundry open 24 hours, washing machines use dollar coins x2 and dryers use quarters. There is a small store in the office, open until 9pm. The recreation hall is open until 10 pm and swimming pool is open until 8 pm. The showers use quarters, .50 for 6 minutes of hot water. I didn't use any of these, so I can't speak to the conditions, but the pool looked nice and the grounds were very well taken care of.

Just down the road is a seafood store that sells great, fresh seafood at reasonable prices. Their lobster cream roll is delicious, as are their scallops. We would definitely stay here again if in the area.

This was a one night stay for us. The women in the office was very nice and gave excellent directions to our site. We had a pull through, but when we got there the site was pretty unlevel and we would need blocks. Didn’t seem worth the effort for one night. We phoned the office and said we could take any site that was open, since no one else was coming in that day. We moved two sites over and that one worked.

The park is prettier that I expected, with big oaks and lots of Spanish moss (a little unnerving in a bigger RV). The pond is nice and some ducks and a rather large goose of some sort seemed to be super friendly.

We didn’t have a fire pit, but we did have a picnic table, not all sites had one.

There is some road noise, which is to be expected. Exiting was easy.

I could see staying here again for an overnight stay.

This is a new campground and a relatively new State Park. Our check in went smoothly, even though the staff is still getting used to the system and our site had been reserved the day before, but the person never checked in/out. Caused a little confusion, but they figured it out and we made our way to our site. The drive to the campground is a bit long, but is mostly paved, only the very last bit is hard packed dirt. The campground road is not paved, but the sites are all gravel with a patio area to the side that has a picnic table, fire pit and charcoal grill.

We had no trouble backing into our site and more than enough room for our 39’ fifth wheel and truck. Our site was level and we had no problems with the hookups. Not all sites are as spacious, but in general the sites are roomy. There is ample space between sites, you don’t feel crowded at all, but the lack of trees makes for little to no privacy or shade. There are a couple of pull throughs on the inside of the loop that would feel more private, the one our friend was in on the outside of the loop had the living area facing the road.

We didn’t use the bath house, but our friend did and said they were spotless, which I would expect considering how new everything is.

The park itself is large with a lot of hiking opportunities, equestrian trails and a lake for kayaking or fishing. We really appreciated how quiet it was at night and I’ve heard the star gazing is nice, but we had cloudy weather our two nights there.

My only real complaint was the dust, we were near the main road and people don’t seem to obey the speed limit, even some people driving in the campground loop went a little too fast. We didn’t have much trouble since our RV blocked the dust from the main road and our living space was removed from the campground road, but our RV was quite dusty when we left. I’ve been told that paving the road and campground loop are in the plans, but I also know that Florida state parks are still recovering from hurricane damage, so it might be a while for them to get the money. The dust certainly wouldn’t keep me from returning, the good far outweighs the dust!

While we were there the campground host drove around offering firewood and ice, which was nice, we didn’t have to drive up to the gate for our wood.

Our AT&T phones would work outside, but not very well in the RV. We used our Verizon Mifi, with a booster, and that worked just fine.

We really enjoyed our stay and are looking forward to returning.

With the size of our rig, we never thought we would stay in a National Park, but we managed to get a site here. We drove down from Yellowstone to check out our options, and were told by a ranger that we should have no problem after Labor Day. We arrived two days after Labor Day and managed to get a spot, but we certainly didn’t have as many choices as we had hoped for. For whatever reason, the crowds didn’t dwindle and the campground was full the Saturday after Labor Day.

The sites aren’t ideal, our loop was mostly pull throughs right alongside the road, but we managed to fit. Most bigger rigs sit very close to the road, which can be a little nerve racking, but it worked out fine. The living space, for most of the sites, is highly wooded and quite large. We really liked our site and joked about how far a walk it was to the fire pit. This is bear country, and each site has a large bear proof box to keep food, garbage and grills safe.

You check in at the gate, which went fairly smoothly even with three campers in front of us. They assign you a spot, and were very accommodating of us, giving us two options to chose from. The sites are gravel and ours was mostly level. The were no hookups at all in our loop, only the second time we have tried this, but we liked it so much here we extended our stay from 3 to 6 nights. There are electric only sites, but they weren’t even recommended to us, I assume because of our size. They were also pricey, I think they are $58/night and $36/night with a senior pass.

We have a solar system, but the trees interfered and we had to supplement with the generator, a lot. We did get some afternoon sun, which helped, but very little direct sun. Generator hours are 8am to 8pm, which seemed to work out. The trees also prevented any hope of satellite and we had no AT&T or Verizon signal. Our AT&T hotspot with a booster would occasionally get a strong enough signal to update mail, but was unreliable so we just turned it off. There is WiFi in the village, which usually worked well. We were really roughing it! (-:

The bathrooms in our loop were older, but clean. The showers are located with the laundry in the Colter Bay Village. Not overly convenient, we drove when we needed to go to the village. The laundry area is big and at $2 to wash and dry, not the highest price I’ve seen. There are two sets of loops, with the second one being for the bigger rigs, at there is a dump station at the entrance to the second set of loops. There are two dump stations on the way out. The grocery in the village is well stocked for a campground grocery, even if the prices are a bit high. The cafe was closed for the season, but the restaurant was open and the food was good.

Overall, we liked the campground and would consider staying here again.

This is a small campground with a beautiful view. We had our choice of a pull thru or a back in, we chose the back in. It was E/W, 30 amp, and easy for our big rig to get into.

They have a brand new pool and clean, if basic, bathrooms and showers. There are tress around, but little to no privacy. Smaller rigs get pretty nice waterfront sites. Don't expect a Resort, but this is a nice, basic campground.

They are friendly and checkin was easy, they let us have our pick of pull thru or back in. We were here for 1 night, so we didn't get to enjoy the area.

We would stay here again, if in the area.

This was a one night stop for us and we planned on not disconnecting out toad (would be our first time). The check in was easy and the people friendly. We were led to our site and when he left we looked and we weren’t even close to level. So, we unhooked the car and repositioned the RV and were very surprised how level it was considering what the site looked like.

Once we were setup our cookies were delivered. We decided to use the car and explore the area a bit, since it was unhooked. The Whistle Stop Cafe from the movie Fried Green Tomatoes was a short drive away and worth a look if you’ve seen the movie.

We also walked around the park a bit. Our site was under trees and very narrow, we had to move our picnic table almost into the site next to us to get out of the RV. There are sites down the hill, the 100’s, that appear more level and roomier and these have chimineas. Our site didn’t have any fire pit and honestly didn’t really have room for one. But, it was OK for one night.

We ordered pizza, chicken fingers and poppers from the office and had them delivered. Not amazing food, but I didn’t have to cook. They will also deliver items from the store, if you don’t want to go in and shop due to Covid.

There were quite a few long term trailers and some were a little worse for the wear. But we didn’t have a problem with anyone.

If we needed to stay here again I would request a spot in the 100 section. It’s also easier to leave from there, we had a turn on our way out that was a little tight.

My first impression of this park wasn’t all that great, but we ended up in a very comfortable spot, with quite a bit of grass and enough room for our 38’ fifth wheel and large truck.

We stayed here to surprise some friends coming to the area, they selected the park. The staff was great and put us in sites next to each other.

Checking in was easy and they led us to our spot and offered to help us back in. We had lots of room to maneuver and had no problem getting into our site.

I believe all sites are full hookup, but we had a flicker in the electric and our friends breaker in their RV popped, but other than that we had no problems with any of the hookups. The WiFi worked much of the time, better than most RV Park WiFi’s. We had satellite, trees caused a few problems, but we did get it to work. Our antenna received more tha 40 channels with a very clear picture Our AT&T phones had a great signal, so internet was never a problem.

The downside of this park is there are many sites that are crammed in tight and there are quite a few lined up right next to railroad tracks. We were fortunate and had a roomy site not on the tracks, but the trains were noticeable, and frequent, during the day and night.

Even with that, we enjoyed the park. They have live music every night, some artists are better than others, and they have a dinner special every night. We enjoyed the tacos and ham steak, it was nice to not cook and eat while enjoying the music.

There is no shuttle and Uber to the city ranged from $20-$25, not bad with two couples sharing it. It’s a pretty straight shot into the city from here, it doesn’t feel all that far. I would definitely stay here again if in the area.

Price reflects weekly rates. Check in was easy, owners are RVer’s, which I alaways find to be a positive. Roads are gravel and big rig friendly, sites are level, grass, with lots of grass around. We didn’t have any trees in our area, but there are some around the seasonal sites. We had 30amp, full hookups, but our friends had problems with their electric hookup. The system in their RV didn’t like the power fluctuations and wouldn’t allow them to run much. The owners sent an electrician, who fixed the initial problem and gave them $20, but there was a bigger issue that had to do with sharing power with with multiple sites. That was by design and didn’t get resolved. We didn’t have that issue.

There is a race track adjacent to the park, but it rained while we were there and they didn’t race.

Our AT&T unlimited plus plan had good coverage.

There is a lot of space between sites and lots of green space around. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and would stay again.
