Rating: (6.5) We were caught short on a holiday weekend and needed a place to stay ~ everywhere we called was booked up solid. Finally we called Country Haven and they had 2 sites left so we quickly booked one after asking key questions like are the level and do you have 50 amp. Well the sites that were left were 30 but we knew we could get away with that since it hadn't been too hot. Then we read the reviews ~ Go there first before you book. (Click here for reviews) They say dogs can stay but when you get there they tell you don't let them bark at all.  Really???  All dogs bark don't they?  I was scared after we read them but we didn't have any problems... except the sites were not level (at all) and the voltage was really really bad.

Artillery Ridge Campground Resort ~ Gettysburg, Pa

Description:  OK ~ I am not a hard person to please... When I call for reservations I ask for a few things ~ that is if I am traveling with friends or meet up with someone I know we'd like to park together and we would like to be able to receive Satellite TV if you don't have cable in the park.  This is what I asked for when we made our reservations at Artillery Ridge RV park.  The lady who was at the front desk started out defensive since she knew we wanted 2 sites together and wanted to get satellite... she blamed it on the help there and when I said it wouldn't work for us since the sites were very unlevel too she said she had some sites in the back we could be happy with... well we weren't.  Yes we could get satellite but the sites were so unlevel our coach wouldn't level out... right across the street were sites that had gravel and were somewhat level.  Now there were sites up front that were nicer but she told us they were not available however no one ever went in them... We were in the back right near all the horses in water soaked sites...  after asking not to be near the horses since my husband has allergies to Horse fly stings.  We still had fun and enjoyed our time in Gettysburg but if I ever come back we will NOT be staying in this park.  I am sure some people have stayed here and liked it but the woman's nasty attitude did me in.  There were others who worked there that were a lot more friendly. You may like it... On a positive note they are really close to the battlefields and town.

Eisenhower's home & farm are also here.  Plus many other related sites ~ click here to find out more.  While you are here definitely go to the 235 year old Dobbin House & Tavern for their famous Onion Soup.  You will not be disappointed

Cherry Hill RV Park ~ College Park, Maryland (DC)

Description:  This is a very good and well managed RV campground.  The staff in the front office are very friendly & helpful.  The park is maintained beautifully and in fact, probably one of the best we have ever stayed in.  The campground has just about everything you can think of including a restaurant on site that you will get a 20% coupon for when you check in.  If you purchase a Cherry Hill cup at the Grill you get free refills for your entire stay.  It is also very kid-friendly! It was the perfect location to visit Washington DC. The bus picks you up and takes you to a Metro depot for a short ride into DC.  Every day they have a 1 hour training session for newcomers on how to see the sights at the least cost. It was great!  Access to the DC metro is great and easy once you get use to it.  Tours from the campground are convenient. The pools (one heated) are some of the nicest we have seen. The cafe offers a wide variety of items. Gift shop and RV supply stores are well supplied.  You do hear highway noise and sites are smaller, but we expected this being so close to DC. They offer 10% discount for Good Sam, AAA and a few other clubs.

Favorite Sites: We stayed on site 208 and we had plenty of room. We had a patio premium site with brick patio/picnic table/ patio furniture/grill.

Phone/TV/Internet:  Everything worked great here ~ Verizon and AT&T phones were good, Direct TV top satellite came in great and they had cable TV.

Hiking/Walking/Biking:  Nice hiking trail through the woods not to mention you'll be walking like crazy in DC.

Things to See & Do:  You're near DC ~ there is a ton of things to see & do!!!

Description:  Here is another case where we needed a place to stay and this was the only park we could be sure would fit BIG rigs and 50 Amp electric.  Pretty much the only park near Fredericksburg which we wanted to visit.  Fredericksburg has a lot to see & do.  The biggest problem with this park is there are very few sites that don't trees and you can not get satellite but they do have cable TV ~ also the pool was in very sad shape and a beautiful color of GREEN!  I do think they were trying to take care of the problem though.

Kitty Hawk RV Park ~ Kitty Hawk, North Carolina

Description: This campground is just an average campground with sites that are to close together and not entirely big rig friendly however with that being said it is right next to the water and just a stones throw from the Wright Brothers National Monument. The host is really friendly and if you mention that you have a big rig she will put you on a site that is not to terribly bad.

Amenities: Full service sites are available with 30 / 50 amp service, sewer, water and cable TV. Wireless Internet access is available through OBXwan

click here to go to their Web Site:

Date of Stay: We stayed here April 13th, 2012 for 4 nights

Weather During Stay: The weather was perfect this time of the year. However it is always pretty windy on the outer banks so awnings are not a good thing to put out unless you want a new one.

Plus there are 4 Lighthouses ~ There is a free 40 minute ferry to Ocracoke to see Ocracoke Lighthouse and drive around the quaint little island.
