This lesser known (and less crowded) state park is just south of the more popular Caballo Lake and Elephant Butte state parks. Although I haven’t been to the other two I think they are booked more so harder to get reservations. Just from looking at pictures, it seems like Percha Dam has more trees and... Continue Reading →
Alamagordo White Sands KOA, Alamagordo, New Mexico
This KOA Journey is just a few miles from our newest National park, White Sands. Their website states they are also a base camp for exploring New Mexico Museum of Space History and Three Rivers Petroglyph Site, among other attractions. The only other sightseeing I did was Pistachio Land, a gift and souvenir shop and... Continue Reading →
Enchanted Trails RV Park, Albuquerque, NM
This RV park was recommended to me by neighbors where I live. I've stayed at the Casino Resort RV Park about 10 miles west three times but I knew I would want to be as close to home as possible my last day of driving. To be fair, I didn't really get to explore all... Continue Reading →
Kingman KOA Journey, Kingman, AZ
I believe this is a popular and well-run KOA in the historical and tourist area of Route 66 and Kingman. However, given a choice, I probably wouldn't stay here again. The facilities were well-kept and the front office has personable employees and a well stocked store but I wasn't happy with the site set ups.... Continue Reading →
Lost Hills RV Park, Lost Hills, CA
If you are traveling south or north through California and don't want the bone-jarring, frequent accidents, and construction stops of I-99, and elect to take I-5, I would recommend this RV Park as a quick overnight stopping place. I would not recommend it for any type of vacation or longer stay although there are a... Continue Reading →
Needles KOA Journey, Needles, CA
Last time I was in Needles, I stayed for a week at another RV Park by the river but this time, I was just going to stay for a quick overnight and needed a pull-thru so I booked here. It's not by the river but there is a quick view of a piece of the... Continue Reading →
Tucumcari KOA Journey, Tucumcari, NM
Tucumcari has some fun places to check out when you are passing through, including iconic Route 66 motels and museums. Last time I was here, I stayed at a picturesque historic RV Park called Cactus RV Park that, unfortunately, ended up going the way of many of the original Route 66 businesses and was sold...

Burkburnett/Wichita Falls KOA Journey, Burkburnett, TX
This KOA journey was convenient and on the way to Lawton, Oklahoma from Wichita Falls, Texas. The road and sites were gravel but there were grassy patches with picnic tables at every site, making it less dreary than some travelers RV Parks. There appeared to be a handful of full timers around the perimeters but... Continue Reading →
Lubbock KOA, Lubbock, TX
I was just traveling through and needed a convenient place with a pull-thru for the night. It appeared that I was the only over-nighter with the majority of spaces taken with long-term workers. However, it seemed clean and quiet and there weren't any piles of stuff laying outside or a junky look at all. Most... Continue Reading →
Edgewood RV Community — Midwest City, OK
This lovely long term RV park is off the radar, which is why I didn't know about it the first two years I summered in OKC while visiting my son. In my third year here, I decided to go outside the box with my search because I wasn't happy with the other parks I'd found... Continue Reading →
