Tom Sawyer’s RV Park – West Memphis AR

Located on the Mississippi River, this quiet park had all the amenities we needed.  We were “home” for Christmas.  Russ was born in Memphis and most of his family still reside here in the Memphis Area.  We have not spent a Christmas here in a very long time and it was time for a change.  Bobbi loves being around family during the holidays and this was a perfect location.  Tom Sawyer’s was able to accommodate us for two weeks.  We arrived Christmas Eve Eve and left right after the New Year.  If you are needing a place to stay off the beaten path, away from the highway and a picturesque view, this is the place to stay.   This resort was absolutely an amazing place to be.  We really enjoyed our stay here.  It is close enough to Memphis and far enough away from the hustle an bustle of things.  HIGHLY RECOMMEND

About 12 miles outside of Nashville, TN; this RV Park is quite a gem.  This being our first stay outside of Florida we were very excited to be in a new town with a different view.  While we stayed here we had a purpose in mind, we were in town for WordCamp US at the Music City Center in Downtown.  We also need to be close to an airport since Russ needed to fly to Charlotte for a week of on sight work.  Grand Ole RV was a perfect location for both these events.  It was so great we extended our stay for another week making it a total of 3 weeks of stay.

Travel Review – Wekiva Falls RV Resort – Sorrento, FL

Let me first start that we have been tent camping throughout our adult lives, since we have a son that was in Scouts for many years, tent camping was a regular event around our home.  We liked it sometimes… living in Florida made this is less liked during Late Spring to Early Fall months.  However, it was a great time had by all.

When we first decided to change our life style and go full-time, I was a little on the skeptic side.  Thinking this lifestyle would be like living in a tent, just a bit more glamorous, I was wrong.  When deciding on a place to stay I was looking for something with a Ritz-Carlton stay with a Super 8 budget.  We purchased our new motorhome in July and moved in October.  In between that time, I was able to scout out new places to stay with the requirements that we needed to make sure we sustain the living lifestyle we have grown accustomed to.

For the Travel Reviews we are going to use several criteria areas – WIFI reliability, Lot Size, Site Condition, Amenities, Staff and Cost.

We stayed at Wekiva Fall RV Resort for 31 days.  We visited several RV resorts in our area and we chose this as our first home to get settled in and transition.
