The
Two RV Gypsies: Full-Time RVers at Branch Brook Campground 435 Watertown Road Thomaston, Connecticut October 7, 2013 |
This was the second time that the two RV Gypsies parked their RV at Branch Brook Campground. This campground had Wi-Fi and it was secured, but it did not come in at all sites. The two RV Gypsies did get the Wi-Fi this time, and it was fairly decent. There were limited sites with 50 amp full-hookups and cable. 50 amp sites are metered and it cost the two RV Gypsies an additional $30 for the electricity at this campground. Cable sites required a box that the office will provide at cost extra.The entrance / exit to the campground is like a Y - All areas of the Y are narrow with only enough width for one RV at a time, but that's okay because the two top arms of the Y are one-way. The only part that is a 2-way area is the bottom part of the Y, so RVs must be careful at the point. The turn from the road into the campground was a sharp turn that is a bit difficult. |
