Reviewing Campgrounds from 2015 - Workamp Site and then South and East

13th Site-Town: Athol, ID Campground Name: Farragut State Park. FHU. This was an excellent place to stay and workamp. We had a very private site next to the Museum where we hosted. The only others who could park there was the other hosts. We loved this park and it is very popular. Many Canadians com here to camp. We had wonderful trails, Lake Pend Oreille, Yummy Ice Cream at Bayview and Athol and many wonderful places to sightsee nearby. Read my blog for all the activities. 14th Site-Town: Grangeville, ID Campground Name: Bear Den RV Resort. FHU. Cost $31.00/night. This was basically a gravel parking lot. Somewhat crowded, not too scenic. Not sure if we would stay here again. 15th Site-Town: Mountain Home, ID Campground Name: Mountain Home Air Force Base FamCamp. FHU. Cost $15.00/night. It was hot when we stayed. The place was not too scenic and very few amenities on base. The price was great. 15th Site-Town: Honeyville, UT Campground Name: Crystal Hot springs. FHU. Cost $40.00/night. This was a more scenic stop. The sites were grass, a nice break from the grave. They had a swimming pool here that we did not use. We would stay here again. Nice Stop. 16th Site-Town: Salina, UT Campground Name: Butch Cassidy Campground. FHU. Cost $40.00/night. We stayed here to explore Capitol Reef NP. The site was very small, only a half size picnic table. We loved the National Park, but I should have done better research for a place to stay. There is interesting history of outlaws and Mormons in this area. We would not choose this park again. 17th Site-Town: Moab, UT Campground Name: Spanish Trails RV Park. FHU Cost $42.50/night. Again this was close quarters, but not as tight as the previous place. There was a good laundry room we used and the location was convenient. We toured Arches and Canyonlands NP from here. We would stay again. We might even choose a resort here in Moab if the site was great - prices are high in Utah. 18th Site-Town: Cortez, CO Campground Names: Parking Lot. NO hookups. Free. We lost the serpentine belt on the RV and were very lucky to get pulled into this parking lot. It was on the south side of town and that was fortunate- we were able to get parts and a mobil RV Tech to help us with the belt. We were here overnight and thankful for we weren't further down the highway when this happened. 19th Site-Town: Grants, NM Campground Name: Lavaland RV Park. FHU. $25.00/night. This park seemed to be doing some construction, but it was OK. Have to watch out for stickers. We were pretty satisfied with the stay - again it was not too scenic. 20th Site-Town: Albuquerque, NM Campground Name: Enchanted Trails RV Park. FHU. $18.00/night Passport America. This place is nice enough to stay again, we did. Loved looking at the vintage campers and cars. The people are friendly and it was just a block from Camping World, where we needed to have our refrigerator checked. Also we have stayed at Kirtland Air Force Base FamCamp- but it is difficult to get into at times - so this is another great place to stay in Albuquerque. 21st Site-Town: Tucumacari, NM Campground Name: Cactus RV Park FHU. $25.00/night. Passport America. Again - pretty much a parking lot, but the price is good. There was a nice restaurant next door and good places to walk the dogs. 22nd Site-Town: Amarillo, TX Campground Name: Wonderland RV Park. FHU. $23.40/night. The city park is nice but you have to cross a busy street to get there. The site was not level and a lot of people seemed to stay here year-round. We would not stay here again. 23rd Site-Town: El Reno, OK Campground Name: El Reno Lake West. FHU $20.00/night. Yes we stay here most every time we come through. Good place to camp and see the family. We could also stay at the Casino for free, it is north of town - but it is a little further away. So we enjoy this place for the ease and somewhat scenic area.
