I have noticed that when a zip code is added, the mileage always seems to be off. My last campground, Port of San Luis is about 150 miles away but the distance in the review only reads 85 miles.

Is this measuring air miles?

It's supposed to be the distance between the zip codes but considering how lousy the ReviewPost PHP software that we use is, I'm not sure. Sorry it's not accurate.
