Check-Ins

$30 per night, not very good for the price, but hotels aren’t cheap in Afghanistan. Includes breakfasts, kind of secure parking for bike. Squat toilet.
Nice guys that speak some English
Uncomfortable bed

We found this place on our way to Cahuita National Park. Extremely clean place and in the middle of the forest. We were very well received. We slept in the Campervan, on a super quiet and silent night. The site has a swimming pool that can be used, regardless of whether you stay in the Campervan or in the rooms. We paid 20k colones for two people.

Great little free USFS campground. Clean vault toilet, but no TP. Train does come by, but not an issue. No one else here. Trails to explore! No Verizon service. We were fine in our transit van on the road in.

Huge camping 🏕, , friendly, reasonably priced, organised, lots of trees 🌳, Wendy , good restaurant and good accommodation.

Great base camp for exploring Alexandra Falls and Louise Falls. We spent 2 nights here in our 20ft travel trailer :) You can swim in this lake! We saw some locals drive to the other side of the lake where it looks like they have set up a diving board and jump into the waters. Bugs were too bad while we were there.

Not a restaurant anymore, but a really neat place to stay overnight. There are different rooms in a greener than green garden, on walking distance of the center of Coroico. Great, fresh, homemade breakfast. The host is super friendly, warm and helpful. Room is kind of basic, but comes with a warm shower. There is a parking space, for one big car, not suitable for big rigs (but you can park on the side of the road). 35 US dollars per night/2 persons via Airbnb. Be prepared for many mosquitos and big spiders. Mosquito net available.

24' RV no problem down or back up. Absolutely stunning place and watching the tidal range is amazing. However and it's a big however...we had visitors come and put the frighteners on. Came down and parked right beside us (no need it's a big enough area) rooted their horn repeatedly. turned their truck around to shine the lights on our windows. Yelling they were going to rob us. We stayed quiet and inside and didnt respond at all and after about an hour they drove to the top of the track and blocked us in for ages. They finally got bored and left and we stuck it out. Really stressful and frightening and such a shame because this truly is a magical spot.

There is no dump station at this rest area.

Basic but clean hotel with safe parking lot. Hot shower, wifi, free breakfast. Some rooms have AC and fridge (135 Reais, or 28 USD).
21km away from the park with Yucumã Falls. Bakery and supermarket (with eatery) nearby.

Is for sale and actually closed. No restaurant actually and no rooms.

tucan smiles is not here and actually for sale. here you find some space to park a small camper.

The campsite is visible from the road. We saw 2 cars in the 12h we stayed there so it‘s not a lot going on here. There are some very flat spots to set up camp. Some wind may be common as its at the exit of the valley. Nearby is a river to take water and shower.

Wheel alignment for big trucks. They don’t worry about your truck not being in the system.
We came here with an Iveco Daily 4x4

Amazing tour with Yordy and his family. The tour is private and so welcoming. Highly recommended, we wouldn’t hesitate to repeat with them.

Very nice place to stay one night, when we are there 3 other RV was too. Quiet even if it is close to the highway. The Superior lake view its amazing. Safe, clean and legit.

It was so noisy with men driving around in extremely loud vehicles and blasting their music. All night long. Can’t tell you how many times men have ruined a good nights sleep. A parking lot cleaner operated around 1 am. Spent a second night at Cracker Barrel which was so much better.

Lots of spots but busy. Can def hear highway noise from first set of sites but not bad and quiet after dark.

I saw two sloths, a couple of monkeys and a big ass iguana. One of the beer selling guys pointed a sloth out to me as I was looking up the whole time, then one of the park's caretakers showed me around for about half an hour to another sloth and some monkeys while I was sipping my cold beer that I bought from the first guy. Good fun! There should be around 7 sloths and 12 monkeys in total.

Great quiet camping spot. Easy access. 4wd needed for the camping on the sand. Mario was a great host and brought me tacos and fire wood. Sadly, lots of trash and flies.

Bessey National forest and grassland campground
May 16-17, 2023
This campground is near Halsey, NE. There are a few pull through sites. Not many choises for big rigs. We found a tight fit for our 33ft 5th wheel trailer. Tree limbs are low in many sites. Lots of sites with 15 amp service. Some sites had drinking water. The ranger station was at the entrance to the camp, also lots of greenhouse and agro plots. $10 for for non-electric - $20 for electric per night, Half price with America the beautiful pass. Large group site by reservation only - popular with offroaders. Trains nearby, it gets noisey at times. We had coyotes, later turkeys, right outside our trailer about 100 ft away.

Stayed here for 2 nights. Really close to Arches National Park, nice views, quiet despite being a little close to the highway and felt safe. The place is popular but it is so large that everyone has their own private space. Accessible with 2WD

Very nice parking lot by the beach, with amazing sunsets and friendly people staying over (at least while we stayed). There was a nice, chilled atmosphere. There are 6 parking spaces designated for overnight, but many more campers were overnighting in the others. The rangers passed when we were arriving and they did not say anything. There are toilets and a cold shower (indoor and outdoor). There are also bins.

Glad to use their dump a couple times. Also topped up propane.

Big enough laundromat. Good location. Big enough parking lot. A quarter gets you 4 minutes on the washer.

When we entered Turkmenistan from Iran they drew a route for us on a map, which we had to follow until exiting. Unfortunately we didn’t double check that map and they put the KonyaUrench/Nukus border on the map, which we didn’t drive to as the road is supposedly very bad. So we had some discussions here, because they wanted us to drive back to the other border, which we refused. After going back and forth they finally let us go through this border. Only looked in the van shortly and payed $5 dollar exit fee.

The Uzbek side took a bit longer and they checked the van a bit more intensive. No questions about drones, but what kind of medicine we‘re bringing. $3 sanitation fee.

Cute little unattended campground with five sites. Pay via cash in box. It was full the two nights we were there. I think site 4 or 5 is best, though site 3 has its own path down to the river. rangers came by multiple times a day to check things. $5 per vehicle camping

Seems like they are checking north bound traffic. They waved us through without a hassle.

Still exists, seems the overflow can’t be booked online - you have to be here and ask the camp host if the set is space ( usually there is - it’s big ! ).

Now $11 per adult, $7 for seniors. Convenient to visitor centre for hot showers and Telstra reception.

Secluded with several great tent camping sites. a few fireplaces and some good firewood from felled trees. Far enough from the highway that it's not noisy. Plus the creek below drowns out any sound it would make.

24 hrs overnight parking lot! Cell signal excellent. In Showlow, the Maverick gas station has no room for RVs.
