The three-number Good Sam Campground Rating that accompanies each campground listing on GoodSam.com’s Find a Campground page provides an at-a-glance assessment of a campground’s amenities, cleanliness and environment.
How to read a Good Sam Campground Rating
All three ratings categories are measured on a scale of 1 to 10, with 10 being the best. Less than 1 percent of campgrounds receive the coveted 10 / 10★ / 10 rating, which indicates superior facilities that are well maintained, clean, well-appointed restrooms and a highly appealing appearance. Campgrounds are inspected annually by dedicated RVers like you.
Completeness of facilities
10 / 10★ / 10
The first campground rating evaluates the completeness and quality of facilities. In this category, we rate interior roads, sites, registration area, hookups, recreation, swimming, security, laundry, store and building maintenance.
Cleanliness and physical characteristics of restrooms and showers
10 / 10★ / 10
The second rating category concerns the cleanliness and physical characteristics of toilets, walls, showers, sinks/counters/mirrors and floor. If a campground achieves a full point in each of the above, it receives a star (★), indicating exceptionally clean restrooms.
Also rated are physical characteristics of restrooms, including interior construction, adequate supplies/odor free, adequate number of facilities, exterior appearance and location in relation to campground spaces, and interior appearance.
Visual Appeal and Environmental Quality
10 / 10★ / 10
This category addresses the campground’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.
