Branches of Niagara Campground and Resort Review – Amazing camping, close to Niagara Falls {New York}

Oct 232015



Branches-of-Niagara-Campground-Resort-Review

I’m a bit behind in blogging about our adventures – this post highlights our travels around September 8-9, 2015. Follow us on Instagram to find out where we are currently!

After leaving Evangola State Park we headed to the Niagara Falls area! When trying to decide where to stay while visiting Niagara Falls, I kept coming across Branches of Niagara Campground and Resort. It was recommended by many reviewers and it had some of the best reviews I’ve ever seen for a campground! Located just 8.2 miles from Niagara Falls it’s one of the closest campgrounds you’ll find to the falls. After considering the great reviews and the proximity to the falls we decided to give it a try!

I knew the minute we drove onto the property that we were going to enjoy it here. The entire campground felt like a resort. . . .or like a very nice park. . .

Mature landscaping, native plants, a pond, lots of grass, manicured paths. . .it was gorgeous.

Spearfish KOA campsite review {South Dakota}

Aug 92015



Spearfish-South-Dakota-review

After a frustrating couple days with the broken fresh water tank, we were looking forward to getting to South Dakota and spending a few days at the Spearfish South Dakota KOA. I knew the minute we pulled into the Spearfish, South Dakota KOA campground that it was going to be a treat! As soon as I entered the lobby of the office we were greeted by Kim, one of the owners,  checked-in and taken to our spot.

We had a back-in spot near the end of a row. Lots of space to back-in, green grass, a fire pit and picnic table. We had plenty of room to park our truck – which can sometimes be a tricky thing with back-in spots. We were really pleased with the spacing of the spots – we felt like we had plenty of privacy and room between the other campers.

This campground is beautiful – it’s like camping in a backyard. Lots of green space, mature trees and beautiful grass. I talked with the groundskeeper and he has taken care of this RV park for 20+ years and you can tell he takes great pride in making the grounds look nice.

The pull-thru spots are nice and long and could easily accompany bigger rigs. The fire pits are made with stone pavers and the picnic tables in great shape.

Ravenwood RV Resort – near Silverwood Theme Park {Idaho}

Jul 82015



Ravenwood-RV-Resort

I recently shared about our awesome trip to Silverwood Theme Park – what fun we had!  If you’re planning a similar trip, and you’re looking for an RV park near Silverwood, I highly recommend Ravenwood RV Resort!

RV-Park-Near-Silverwood

Located just off Bunco road, a mile south of Silverwood Theme Park, this place was so conveniently located – saving us a long drive to/from an RV park in the Spokane or Coeur d’Alene area. (Silverwood also has an RV park, but it books out way in advance).

Blue Valley RV park review {Walla Walla, Washington}

Jun 302015



Blue-Valley-RV-Park

After spending a week in Washington state parks (Lake Wenatchee and Sun Lakes) we headed into the city of Walla Walla, Washington. We had researched local RV parks and decided to stay at Blue Valley RV Park.

Although I love the views, wildlife, nature and vastness of the state parks, I can’t tell you how happy we were to have laundry services, wifi, cell reception, cable and nearby city services for the first time in about a week.

The Blue Valley RV Park is located super close to downtown. This was a big selling point for us as we knew we wanted to spend lots of time downtown. Located just on the opposite site of Highway 12, you could easily walk from the RV park into downtown. There is also a FREE Valley Transit Trolley that does pick-ups/drop-offs on that side of the freeway – check out route 9 and you can pick that up to head into town. It’s literally a couple minutes in a car to be immersed in downtown – it’s so conveniently located!

Although located not far from freeway – I didn’t hear the freeway once. I’m not kidding this place was so quiet. I even commented to the staff how quiet it was for being so close to the city.

Blue-Valley-RV-Park-reviews

Within the RV park, the individual spots aren’t super spacious, but they have a LOT of pull-through options, which we prefer – it makes parking so easy! I didn’t feel like we were too close to other motorhomes – even really big ones. Each space has the long spot for the trailer or motorhome and a side parking spot for your tow vehicle. And you’ll also find a small lawn area and a picnic table at each spot – along with 50 AMP hook-ups, cable, water and sewer.
