Any other sites for park reviews?
Are there any other sites that people use besides http://www.campgroundreviews.com/ ?
I know a lot of people will look there but there seems to be others so which others do you use?

I use rvparkreviews most of the time, but you might want to look over Campground Reviews and RV Park Reviews.

For me, when I am looking for an RV park I start with the city and see what they have. Once I find a park that might look good, I then go to google earth and look at the parks. while the pictures may be old, it still give me and idea of what to expect. so far on this trip, things have worked out good. Being that we also travel with our lab, I also look to see what areas are close by so they can have some room to run.

I just did the google earth thing for a park yesterday. We just bought a new trailer and with it came a year of free camping to a chain of campgrounds. Looked at the one closest along with some internet reviews. Google earth nailed it for me that it was a place I did NOT want to camp. No parking pads for the RV's and no shade means no thanks for me.

We rely almost exclusively on RVParkReviews; the very large number of reviews (more than 180,000) makes it the most comprehensive non-commercial site I know of.
One feature which, I think, makes RVParkReviews into a more powerful tool is to use it in Campground Search mode rather than simply looking up a particular city. Use the Search Nearby tab and you will find CG's at increasing distances from the city whose name you choose. Often there are CG's in neighboring towns that your might overlook if you only went to the listings for the specific cities whose names you know.

I have used TripAdvisor and found reviews for campgrounds and RV parks. They also have an app.

Sure wish rv park reviews had an app for the iPhone. Excellent site for getting a feel for a campground.

They don't have an app, but they do have a bookmark that you can put on your home screen. It takes you to a mobile-friendly page and from that you can also get to the main site.
It's important to note that even though this like says it is for iPhone, it works just fine on my Android phone, it is just a bookmark which is why it works for either: RV Park Reviews

Down load the Allstays app. This app is linked to RV park reviews.

I'd just like to say that I hope you all are taking the time to POST your reviews on the different sites. That's what makes them valuable...INPUT!!!
