The three-number rating that accompanies each campground listing in the directory gives readers an at-a-glance assessment of the campground’s amenities, cleanliness and environment.
Each of the following are rated on a scale from 1 to 10, with 10 being the best:
Facilities: Evaluates the level of development of RV sites, hookups, recreation, swimming, security, laundry, services, interior roads, registration area and Internet access.
Restrooms and showers: Rates the cleanliness and physical characteristics of toilets, walls, showers, sinks/counters/mirrors and floor. If a park achieves a full point in each of the above, it receives a star (*) that indicates exceptionally clean restrooms. Also rated are restrooms’ interior construction, odor, supplies, number of facilities, interior appearance, exterior appearance and location as it relates to park spaces.
Visual appearance: Appraises the park’s setting and site layout, function and identification of signage, overall exterior building maintenance, noise, trash disposal, litter and debris around the grounds and sites, and appearance of grounds, sites and entrance area.
