Sorta counts, right? Found a T@G close by when camped overnight at the KOA in Huntington, WV.
Fox Fire? Pretty nice, but expensive...and they put me in a bad spot just because it was small enough to fit.
Looking at my notes, we put in there for $35 for the night, which is reasonable around here. Basic pull through spot, we didn't even unhitch. Indeed, a nice campground, but right next to the highway without having easy access to the highway. Place was also packed, lots of folks pulled in to get out of the flooding in the Charleston area that weekend.
$35 not too bad. I paid $40 (plus tax) two years ago for a basic spot, grassy and wet. Was also crowded the night I stopped. Only two vacant spots. Was glad to find a place late in the afternoon, and would gladly pay the same again under the same circumstances.
Our Michigan pics are from near Sleeping Bear Dunes. It is beautiful up here right now! Campground is Indigo Bluffs. A bit crowded but the campsite is level and private (ish).

Since we are on the subject of KOA, here is the setup we had at another KOA stopover, this time at the Louisville South KOA in Sheperdsville, KY. I know @jkjenn had a terrible experience at the Louisville North KOA, and she is not the only one, so I decided on this one. There are other campgrounds in the area, but I was not so sure about the ones at the flea markets, and we really just needed a solid overnight stop, so this was a good choice. Simple setup, we didn't even unhitch.
The new campground at Monument Valley would have a great view, if they had not put up cabins in front of it. Also, there is no indication on the website, but the form you sign when you check in indicates no pets. Rocky might or might not have honored that rule. They do allow pets throughout most of the park, though.
It looks like the upload significantly decreased that image quality, but I snagged the shot below at RMNP. I have a better shot of the Milky Way from Kodachrome basin, but there was too much light from people's flashlights and campfires coming into the shot.
Jenn is a hard act to follow (the photo with Rocky is precious, BTW), but I have been wanting to try to post images on this board and this is my trial. I apologize in advance if the image is too big (I sent it as a small file using my Iphone).
This image is from Big Meadows Campground at Shenandoah NP in late July 2016. Nice campround. Sites have varying levels of shade and privacy. Site #51 was moderate for both. No hooks, but dump station and nice coin-operated showers. We walked over to the Lodge for a nice Sunday brunch. There are great view from the Lodge, but we were above the clouds that morning.
Sam, Yes, This pic is from 2015 and the first set up of the Paha Que teardrop dome. This year was a rainy week, but the dome gave us a large dry room. We were the 'Beta' testers of the dome. Paha Que folks first saw our set up at the 2013 'Rolling Home' rally with our 'Coleman' dome and approached us about emulating it.
Cyclonic, We have been to this lake almost every year for 30 years for our family camping week. A Virginia location for you to explore ! ! !
We just competed a 12 day trip around the Gaspasie in Quebec. Covered 2,061 miles in 12 days and saw some spectacular scenery. The first picture is from a campground in Perce, QC. The second is in Parc Forillon and the last two are in Mont-Louis, QC. The last two pictures are the same campsite, I couldn't decide which way to look.
@lapowers57 -- what a beautiful place. And that harp!
Life happened this year (we moved from AZ to TX) and we haven't had our T@b out at all yet. I should NOT have come and looked at all of these pictures. Jkjen - Rocky is adorable with the monuments, and you got a great picture of the Milky Way! Ethelouise - your picture is cute, with your awning covers on your windows - makes me want to get my polka dot ones out just to touch them even if I can't take my T@b out.
We will get going soon though. Happy Camping All.

New owners, this our third trip with the T@B. Ocean Cove Campground, north of Jenner, Ca. Weather was great overcast but temps in the high 70's low in the high 50's. 5 days on the ocean. Great hiking trails in the area. Light breeze.

Very nice! Ocean Cove seems like a hidden gem - can I ask how crowded it was? Did you have any problems getting a good spot?
I saw your camper there. I live just up the hill from there. Have you tried Stillwater Regional Park just up the road a mile? It's pretty nice and Stillwater Cove is a nice little beach.

We just returned from a way too short 3-nighter. The first two nights were at the campground at Clear Creek in San Benito county. Not very picturesque but we had the whole thing to ourselves the first night then one trailer showed up late the second night. We use this free campground as our staging point to enter the permit-required collecting areas in search of a material called plasma agate - a beautiful serpentine based dark green agate.
After catching our limit on the first full day we decided to pull out early and drive down into the central valley to attend a gem and mineral show in Hanford. On the way we made reservations to spend our last night at the High Sierra RV park in Oakhurst. Nice spot - kind of a laid back place with good people and a wonderful swimming hole for people and dogs (not shown in the photos). A little bit expensive due to the holiday weekend - $45 after our AAA discount - but the way we figured it we would have had to pay $20 to dump in our home area so it was a pretty good deal overall.
Nathan - That's the first shot I can recall without you poised in the chair - or was that a mannequin? ;-)
@PXLated
I know, must be not as lazy this time around. Note, also, you will be happy to see the use of blocks. Didn't unhitch, so this was a rare time I used them.
