  • Morganton Point Campground

    Morganton Point Campground

    We used Morganton Point Campground as a home base when we visited northern Georgia. Our destinations on this trip included Tallulah Gorge State Park, Helen, and Amicalola Falls State Park. We really liked this campground for several reasons: location right off a lake (Blue Ridge Lake), spacious with a fair amount of privacy, proximity to…

  • Johnson’s Shut-Ins State Park Campground

    Johnson’s Shut-Ins State Park Campground

    The Johnson’s Shut-Ins State Park campground is one of our favorites! We like the multiple-loop design with the campground trail meandering through each one. The campsites are generally tucked into the trees, creating a sense of privacy and a more rustic feel. Most sites located on the outside of the loops back up to trees.…

  • Peninsula State Park Campgrounds

    Peninsula State Park Campgrounds

    We really enjoy camping in Peninsula State Park because there are so many activities available within the park and because of its central location in Door County. In the park you can hike, bike, paddle, swim, and more. There is even a golf course and an outdoor theater inside the park. To read more about…

  • Hawn State Park Campground

    Hawn State Park Campground

    Hawn State Park campground is one of our favorite campgrounds near the St. Louis area. One of my favorite things about camping at Hawn is that you can walk out of your tent or camper and onto the trail. Depending where your site is located within the campground, it may require a short walk down…

  • Norris Campground

    Norris Campground

    We tent camped here one night and May and it was cold and rainy! The lows were in the 30’s. However, it was great to be inside the park! Norris Campground is centrally located in the park, which was also a plus. This campground was in bear country, so food or anything scented could not…

  • Cottonwood Campground

    Cottonwood Campground

    Cottonwood Campground is located in the south unit of Theodore Roosevelt National Park. If it looks like we’re camping on the edge of a parking lot, it’s because we are. Cottonwood Campground was great, but we did have an issue fitting into our spot. Based on the listed dimensions, we should have fit, but our…

  • Colter Bay RV Park

    Colter Bay RV Park

    We ended our big two-week trip out West with a three-night stay in Colter Bay RV Park. Up until this point in our trip, we had been mostly dry camping, so it was nice to have full hookups. The location was great! We were within walking distance of the Colter Lakeshore Trail, a general store,…

    Apgar campground is located in Southwestern Glacier National Park. We camped in Apgar for the entire duration of our stay in Glacier (four nights) and we loved it!
