But no more: Only 5 percent of you consider that very... Read More

What’s the fairest checkout time at an RV park?

March 2, 2018March 8, 2018 Chuck Woodbury

Most RV parks ask you leave by 11 a.m, a few even 10 a.m. Occasionally you’ll come across an RV park that lets you stay until noon, maybe even 1 or 2 p.m. It’s easy to understand a before-noon checkout time at a hotel, where the room needs to be cleaned and the beds made. But at an RV park?... Read More

February 2, 2018February 2, 2018 Chuck Woodbury

RVers these days seem to want it all — a nice place to stay with plenty of space from neighbors.
