Cajun Palms RV Resort, Breaux Bridge, LA

This is a resort in every sense of the word.  Reminds me of Club Med. There are wonderful amenities for the kids--pool with fun fountains, video arcade, miniature golf, playground-- but I get the distinct impression it's the grownups who want to come and play.   Adult entertainment includes a swim up bar, adults only jacuzzi,...

Johnson Bayou RV Park

I wanted to explore the real Louisiana but after a night in Johnson Bayou, I decided from now on, I'll stick to the main highways and the expensive resorts.  All along Gulf Beach Highway (#82), there are rv park after rv park but they are not rv resorts.  The manager of the one I checked...

Stella Mare RV Resort, Galveston, TX

Grooming on the Outside

Some people may think it's crazy what I do, but if you manage properly, it's not bad. I have a very tiny motor home -- 22 ft inside/24 ft outside length. I travel with 6 pets, albeit 2 are very, very small (arachnids). I got the smallest motorhome because I wanted to be able to...

Lake Tawakoni, Thousand Trails, TX

If you have a Thousand Trails membership, this is an ideal spot for a weekend or a month.  If you don’t, you are probably wondering what all the fuss is.  In the Thousand Trails system, the word “resort” is used loosely.  These campgrounds are a great value if you are a passport member because it...
