Thunder Bay
KOA advertised that they have cable sites, and they do, however only
36 sites out of their 155 sites actually had cable on this date. The
site that the two RV Gypsies were on did NOT have cable, and they only
got 3 channels on their TV, plus one French station. The Wi-Fi would
not connect at the site of the two RV Gypsies, so they had to go to
the office to use the internet. Trains blowing their horns could be
heard during the night.
This KOA won the 2011 Campground of the Year award, but the two RV
Gypsies definitely wonder why as per the comments in the above paragraph.
Karen hates spelling campground with a K because in her opinion when
businesses spell their names wrong, it contributes to children not knowing
how to spell correctly - at least in Karen's opinion. Anyway,
this KOA is nicely decorated and kept, but the two RV Gypsies would
not give it any awards (because the most important thing
to the two RV Gypsies are: full hook-ups with 50 amp service, cable
TV with lots of channels, secured Wi-Fi at the sites, roads in the campground
must be easy for big rigs to maneuver and be wide enough for two RVs
to pass each other (which is seldom the case), and trees trimmed so
they don't scratch the RV as it drives in and out of the park. The two
RV Gypsies don't use pools, laundromats, playgrounds, campground showers
or restrooms, games rooms etc. - although most people probably do use
those things and that is probably why they got an award. (The two RV
Gypsies aren't campers, they just parking their RV in campgrounds and
use their toad to tour the area). Oh well - this is just the opinion
of the two RV Gypsies. |
