PFR *****+++
Campground *****
This park is in the center of Tucson, close to all kinds of shopping and a lot of attractions. It is a "parking lot" park, with only 23 sites & no real amenities, but perfect for what we want, and they love our dogs.
The sites are pretty level, black top, plenty wide and long, with dirt/rock that separate each site.
They have pot luck dinners on all the holidays that are really fun.
Bob & Trish came and stayed a month here with us, which was GREAT!
Mike had an accident on his bicycle on March 11, and broke his leg in 4 places, which delayed our departure by a month & 1/2.
Length of stay - A little over 3 months. Left 5/14
Site #8 This is the largest site in the park. We will be in the same site next year, 2/15 - 4/15.
$599/month peak months, $425/month non peak
No cable. Decent antenna channels though.
I keep this blog to keep track of campgrounds we have stayed in, for our own future reference. Prior to 7/15/22, at the top of each entry is PFR. That was my Pet Friendliness Rating, of one to five *. Five being best. Now I only rate the campsite. We used to travel with 10 small dogs, but sadly, we have lost many of our elderly dogs, and are now down to just 1. So, the multiple dog friendliness is no longer important to us. Prior to 11/1/19, we traveled with 6 - 12 dogs.

Fort Stockton RV Park, Fort Stockton, Texas
PFR *****
Campground ***
This is a fine campground. It is out in the middle of nowhere, in the desert of West TX. The sites are nice size, but not really level. We had to put blocks under the right rear wheels. The guy who checked us in, asked if we had pets, but did not ask how many. We put out 3 xpens, and put all the dogs out at the same time. No one saw them, so don't know for sure if they would have minded.
There is a small restaurant next to the office, the Roadrunner Cafe. The food was good, but a little pricey.
Length of stay - 1 night
$31/per night with Good Sams

Palmetto State Park, Gonzales, Texas
PFR *****
Campground ****
This was a nice state park, with nice wide spaces. There is only one site with full hook ups, which is the site we got, #2. The site was level, with a blacktop pad. There were a lot of trees, and since it is Winter, the ground was covered with leaves, so we got a LOT of leaves inside the coach. Any of the other sites would probably have been just as good as this one. The subject of dog did not ever come up, during reservation or check-in. So, we put out all of our pens, and let all of the dogs out at the same time.
Length of stay - 1 night
The full hook up site was $20/night. The other sites with electric and water were $18/night. Plus $3 per person entry fee per day.

Whispering Meadow RV Park, Westlake, Louisana
PFR ***
Campground ***
The sites at this campground are concrete and level, but the sites are pretty close together. There is no privacy.
The guy that checked us in, did not ask about pets, but we did not feel comfortable letting them all out at the same time. We didn't even make our usual yard, because there was a large area of sand, where they had filled in a tire trench.
Length of stay, 1 night
$35/per night
