    We absolutely love and appreciate your Campground Site Tours! We find them very informative and helpful. In fact we ironically will be staying at campsite 58 in Crooked River State Park Campground in a couple of weeks. We appreciate them so much that this is the first comment I have ever made for any video! You are doing a great job! Thanks!!!

      Mickey, what a great compliment. We really need to hear this from time to time. Larry sometimes asks if we should stop the site to site but I say we need to do them because no one else does.
      This was our first with our new rig and our channel was much newer. Glad you could handle us in our earlier days. We hope our campground tours have gotten better 🤣.
      Thanks again for this special feedback 🤗

      Diane Cicotta Diane, hi. Larry does these exactly for this. We look for pictures or videos to help us pick a site but can’t find any. We have spent the rest of out time in Florida but we will be traveling elsewhere soon. Maybe more Georgia parks. Thank you for the compliment. Alice

    Crooked River is one of our favorite GA State Campgrounds. The bath house on the third loop is one of the best designs, and cleanest I've ever used, especially in a state campground. I'm enjoying your detailed campsite reviews.

      Dale, we hope to visit more Georgia state parks soon. This was the only one. And our first in our new to us fifth wheel.
      Thanks for the added info. It will help others who read the comments.

      @@DownsizingMakesCents You need to try Skidaway Island in Savannah, nice, wooded, convenient to Savannah sightseeing too. Don't come during summer, hot humid, and buggy. Late fall, early spring are the most comfortable. Stay safe.

    Awesome video! Thank you for showing every campsite and more. I wish there were more videos this thorough. We are staying at Crooked River in late February and the sites were almost full when we booked so I am happy to see our site #26 is very nice. I didn't see a really bad site in the entire park. Beautiful park! Next visit we hope to get site 12 because we have a Grand Design 2500 RL so we can view the river from our back window and slide.

      Dianne, I’m glad the video gave you peace of mind.
      We wish all campgrounds had videos like this- that’s why we started doing them.
      Unfortunately, this is the only Georgia one we have done. But we hope to camp more in Georgia this year.
      Enjoy your stay and your Grand Design,

    I watched Bluwave Odyssey tonight and decided to check you out and subscribe. I'm a wannabe and have been tweaking my campervan, taking camping trips, (usually to state parks, of up to 10 days) optimizing my gear and dreaming of my epic trip but can't shake free yet, with family obligations. I've wanted to do this for 50 years. I bought my van and started camping in July 2016. I'm excited to watch you go full time! Thanks for the inspiration.

      Hey. I’m glad Georgia left their campgrounds open. Florida closed their state park campgrounds very early. We love hearing that our tours are helpful. We hope to do more soon. We still need to do two before the lockdown. Wekiva Springs State Park and Salt Springs. Stay safe. Alice

      We were disappointed as well since we are based out of Florida. We have been wanting to start our UA-cam channel on different hiking opportunities at state and national parks and Florida closed everything. Hope you can get those two parks done as soon as they allow! You stay safe as well ~Candace

      Trailhead Tribe Candace. It will open soon. I hope. We actually have the footage from before the lockdown. We just need to edit. I would love to see hiking in Florida State Parks. Good luck. Stay safe. Alice

      Metro On The Move Hi. Unfortunately, we visited this park when we were just weekenders. If it were now that we are full timers, we would have been able to explore more. I wish I had the information you are looking for. Our later yours have much more insight. Sorry. Thanks for joining us. Take care. Alice

    Do you remember if dogs were allowed on the boardwalks that are on the trails? I've been pretty disappointed to go to a state park in Florida only to find that half the trails don't allow dogs because they contain boardwalks.

    • @DownsizingMakesCents
      @DownsizingMakesCents  5 років тому

      Good question. I don't remember any signs saying no dogs but I think that was one of the parks that at some of the trails were shut down because the boardwalks were run down and rickety.I usually add that if it says no dogs allowed- like in our Curry Hammock video.Alice and Larry
