Pace Bend Park (Travis County Park) - Spicewood, Texas

 PFR ***

Campground **

 

We stayed in this park to attend Nick's wedding.  

 

This is a small County park that has only 20 sites.  The sites are a comfortable distance apart, but not huge.  The parking pads are concrete, with small rock & grass on the side yard.  We had enough room for 5 xpens.

 

The bad think about this site is that the front is a little low, so the front end of the coach was high up off the ground.  Then the parking pad was several inches above the ground level.  So, it was quite a climb to get up the steps, even with our portable step on it's highest setting.

This is a very nice campground, with nice wide sites, and even some covered sites.  The grass between sites is very lush and green.  But, they do not allow pet fencing.  We didn't see a pet limit listed in the rules, and they didn't ask how many we had.

This campground was fine for one night, but wouldn't want to spend much time here.  The sites were very close together, with very little space for even one xpen.  The concrete parking pad of our site was broken up pretty much all over.

This is a fine campground for a overnight stay.  We could have put out several xpens, but for just one night, we just put out one.

Shady Grove Campground - Cumming, Georgia

Campground ****

This is a nice County park on Lake Lanier.  It is a nice park, and most, or all sites have some sort of access to the lake.  Most of the sites, ours included, have a small gravel patio area right next to the concrete parking pad. There is a large gravel picnic area with a table and fire pit, on a lower level.  Access to that area is either steps or a slanted sidewalk.  Ours had the slanted sidewalk and was quite steep.  The sites are quite large.  The campground is well maintained.

This is a good site for us, about equal to site 74. The sewer side is actually better on this site, than 74, so would be better for a stay of more than just a few days.

 

Site #70

 

Newberry / I-26 / Sumter NF KOA - Kinards, South Carolina

 PFR *****

Campground **

This is a very small park.  It is clean, and the management is super nice.  But, the sites are short, and barely had room for our car, parked sideways.  Also, it was difficult to get close enough to the propane tank to get propane.  Their hose was not long enough, so we had to turn around and approach it from the wrong direction.

The parking pad is gravel, with a fair amount of grass between sites.  The roads are rough gravel.

Campground *****

This is a brand new park, only open a few years.  It is very "upscale".  We were at this park for the BRD rally.  Our sites were level, long, pull-thru sites, with a good amount of grassy area between sites.  There are a lot of outdoor activities, and the on-site restaurant has really great food!!

They have a 3 pet limit, which is our current number.  The rules stated no pet fencing allowed.  But, after seeing several people using them, we put 2 pens out, and they never told us to take them down.

Site # C-31
