Devils Backbone Basecamp campground review
We recently visited Devils Backbone Basecamp and had the best time. The campground is in Roseland, Virginia and just a few miles away from Wintergreen and the Blue Ridge Mountains. The electric and water RV spots do fill up quickly and it’s very busy on the weekends. We made reservations for October in January, so…

We had a wonderful time at Massey’s Landing in Millsboro, Delaware. It is definitely a resort-style campground and that’s exactly what we were looking for during this trip. I spent more time than I’d like to admit in the swim-up bar and I loved that there was an adult section as well as a kid-only…

If I didn’t know any better, I would think that Yogi Bear’s Jellystone Park: Camp Luray was created by a kid who knew how to have fun. This campground is the ultimate place for children of all ages. From the giant waterpark to the zip line and putt putt course, there’s something for every kid…

Here’s an updated review for one of our favorite campgrounds, the Cape Hatteras KOA Resort in Rodanthe, NC. If you’re looking for the perfect beach campground, this is the spot.

Nothing will ever compare to our perfect trip to Douthat State Park in April. The weather was perfect, the people were perfect and the Lakeside Campground provided a picturesque backdrop for our vacation. We had a waterfront spot with the most unbelievable views and the sites were pretty spread out. Some were closer than others,…

We visited the Cape Charles KOA, formerly known as Sunset Beach, for the first time in August of 2019. We liked it so much that we became permanent residents in 2020. We have since gone back to the traveling lifestyle, but we truly enjoyed our time at this campground. The most attractive thing about it…

We often travel to the Outer Banks, but this was our first trip to the Hatteras KOA in Rodanthe and it was awesome! From the moment we checked in, we knew this was going to be a good experience. The lobby/camp store was one of the nicest facilities we’ve ever seen. It appeared to be…
Keep readingA campground made for kids
We only had a short visit to Misty Mountain Camp Resort but the kids enjoyed every last minute. When we first planned the stop near Charlottesville, I envisioned leisurely winery tours and stops at craft breweries, but with two small children that was not the case. We spent the majority of our time at the…

After we bought our camper we knew we wanted to go somewhere for Memorial Day weekend, but it was March, and everywhere we called was already booked! We had a friend with a place in Mathews County, Va., and remembered a small campground on a beach nearby. We called the New Point RV Resort and…

You are in the middle of nowhere, but keep going! I don’t know about you, but when I’m planning a trip, I devour research. I read every review available, whether it’s for a cruise, a 5-star hotel or a campground. I want to know everything there is to know about a place before I go.…

Mental note… when planning a camping trip to the beach, try to do it during the summer! My husband and I discovered the campground on Fort Monroe in Hampton a few years back. It’s called The Colonies and it’s just steps away from a small beach on the Chesapeake Bay. Each site is named after…
