    Thank you so much for using maps and telling and showing us where these campgrounds are. Surprisingly, a lot of channels show tempting sites and don’t even tell the viewers the city or state. You guys are the best!!!

      @@karenebarker9244 Thank you, Karene. And congratulations.
      Most of our site by site campground tours like this one are in Florida.
      We decided to make these because we were frustrated trying to choose a site - or campground- that was right for us
      When picking a site when returning to a campground, we often go back to our own videos 😁
      Glad we could help and that you found us 🤗

    I love smaller campgrounds. They can be hit and miss but overall I just like the feel better with them. Plus not as many people. Looks like very nice sites. Nice looking bathhouse and upgraded power pedestals to. The ebike looks nice. Might have to look into that one day. I do like hitting trails. Would be fun. Neat video.
