- Denver Downs (Anderson, SC) https://denverdownsfarm.com/– We absolutely loved this place! Ron, Laura and Catherine were so kind and helpful. It is beautiful and right off the main highway. Making it super easy to access if you need a safe and beautiful place to camp for a night or two. If you happen to come during the Fall Festival you will have the time of your life and your children will too! We camped in the field right behind the back gates to the festival with the cornfield at our back. There are no hookups but they generously let us fill up our fresh water tank when we arrived.
- Roosevelt State Park (Morton, MS) – https://www.mdwfp.com/parks-destinations/state-parks/roosevelt/ – Oh what a beauty this place is. We were right on the lake and had a fairly large campsite. Your rig may seem close to the ones next to you but you have a huge backyard to play in. The firepits are overly large which is great and there are full hookups, even better! There are concrete pads for parking (but not for eating) and it is fairly easy to get into – albeit all back in sites by the water. We arrived very late and we were still able to find our campsite without any issues.
- Alamogordo/White Sands KOA (Alomogordo, NM) – https://koa.com/campgrounds/alamogordo/ – We arrived after dark and they were kind enough to leave our check in information taped to the front window of the office. The campsite is very clean and well cared for. However when we woke up that morning we were not thrilled with our site. We were in E5 which backs up to a chain link fence and gives you views of a storage facility and a back road – that in the night stays fairly loud. The sites closer in were better because you did not have that view. However not beautiful the back view was the front view made up for it. You are in a valley of sorts so your view is looking up at the mountains and the sunset coming over. Gorgeous. If you were to visit here I would recommend a site with a concrete pad, grill and swing. They are the best sites and have better views.
- Las Cruces Journey KOA (Las Cruces, NM) – https://koa.com/campgrounds/las-cruces/ – Sunsets OH MY! Gravel lot but that does not even matter, with these views I would have my camper next to a swamp. There are options for full hookups and there are picnic tables and even a little gazebo for everyone to enjoy. The sites are fairly larger than normal and if you get a view back in site you will have the best views. The sites on the inside that are pull-throughs do not give you access to the best view of the sunset and sunrise. You are near Mesilla which I highly recommend visiting while you are here. It is a historic town and you don’t want to miss the little shops or eating at La Posta!
- Tucson/Lazydays Resort KOA (Tucson, AZ) – https://koa.com/campgrounds/tucson-lazydays/ – WOW!!! What a beauty this place is. There is not much of a view but the amenities are where it is at! All concrete pads for parking and with tables, full hookups, pool, fitness center, 2 laundry facilities, restaurant, bike paths, outdoor community fire pits and more! The entire place is concrete so riding bikes around is easy for the children and the playground is a nice one. We stayed right next to the pool which was great with small children. The tent sites are immaculate and offer an outdoor covered patio with a lockable locker. There are covered sites, two story seating area sites, dog park sites, outdoor fireplace sites. Definitely worth checking out.
- Grand Canyon/Williams Journey KOA (Williams, AZ) – https://koa.com/campgrounds/grand-canyon/map/ – A remote KOA. The sites are very large. We have a pull-through site in the middle of the campground. Full-hookups but no concrete pad only gravel and dirt. There is a firepit with a girl attached and the playground although small is still fun for the children. There is a nighttime traffic you can hear from the road, not too loud but it bothered my daughter some. You are in between both Grand Canyon and Sedona but know that it will still be about an hour drive to both. The drive is beautiful. The laundry facilities are great and there is a game room for everyone when the Coronavirus is not an issue. The store sells firewood, postcards and a few other items you might need. This is the only place we have stayed where the internet and phone service is not great. It rarely works and when it does you are kicked off a lot. So if you have to work here this would not be your best campsite, but if you want to escape this is the one for you!
- Wahweap Campground (Lake Powerll, AZ) https://www.lakepowell.com/rv-camping/wahweap-rv-campground/ – What a beautiful place this is. We are in Loop A which I highly recommend.
