My post probably triggered this I assume, since I brought it up. My Rv has a power protection system that does not permit using too-High of voltage (damaging to many appliances). I got over 136v on at least 8 sites. We got permission to try several sites and my wife literally walked behind our Rv holding the 50amp cable as I would slowly drive from site to site trying them out.

Ended up leaving and he first (was the only one available) Yogi spot we tried was spot-on. So I know my electrical protection in our 2013 RV wasn't going flakey on us.

I also saw and talked to the KOA campground maintenance guy when i was struggling to find good power. He was driving around in a golf cart replacing the breakers in various camp sites. He had no concerns about the high voltage--said it's fine. Not for me thanks.

My Progressive EMS showed the voltage to be acceptable last December when we were there

Two more questions

1. How is the WiFi at the 3 parks?

2. How is show parking at Opryland?

There's a huge parking lot at the mall at the Grand Ole Opry. Before we had a Toad, we had Class C & B coaches. There's plenty of room for RV's at the outside edge of the parking lot. We normally go about an hour before the early show. ( if there are 2 shows ). If you are going to the second show, it can get a little crowded, since there are 2 complete audiences parked in the parking lot.

Some people take their Class A's.

Some of the nearby RV parks will arrange a shuttle to the Opry.

Officially Opryland doesn't exist anymore. It was a theme park that closed years ago. Now it's just Grand Ole Opry house and a huge mall. The mall also has a BassPro shop. Nearby is the General Lee paddle wheel boat on the Cumberland River. This is also enjoyable.

The Gaylord Opryland Hotel has a pretty amazing lobby and inside gardens. The lobby changes seasonally. They charge for parking near the hotel. You can park for free at the mall and walk over.

Been with yogi for almost 2 days now. My 15 YO daughter hasn't complained about the wifi yet..... They gave us 3 or 4 different wifi access codes. Looks like if you overload the bandwidth on the wifi it'll lock you out.
