Reviewer Guidelines
RV LIFE Campgrounds is a member-driven comprehensive review and information site specifically for those who love to camp. Reviews submitted by real campers enable the RVing community to plan wonderful trips and find accommodations that meet their every desire. We thank you for your contributions to the RVing community.
We accept reviews of first-hand experiences by real campers. In other words, if you submit a review you warrant that you have personal experience with the facility, are reporting only factual information and do not have a business interest in the park.
- Reviews should be factual and contain only content that pertains to the property being reviewed. References to nearby attractions are welcome but should not be the focus of your review.
- Reviews should be recent and may be submitted for park stays not older than one year and only one review may be submitted for a property (per stay) during a 60 day period.
- Respect the privacy of others First names only please. Reviews may not contain last names, (either yours or others).
- Commercial content is not allowed Reviews may not contain links, references to other campgrounds or websites, phone numbers, e-mail addresses or solicitations of any kind. Reviews posted for personal gain, such as services, gifts, money or to promote another entity or publication will be removed.
- Reviews should be well-formatted with care taken to check spelling, accuracy and readability. Remember, others want to learn from your review; please keep abbreviations, acronyms, slang and texting shortcuts to a minimum.
- Reviews should contain detailed information about your stay and specifics about the Park that would be useful for others considering a visit.
- Example reviews with useful information:
- Our site was clean and spacious. The park was very quiet and our kids enjoyed the shaded play area. The park staff was very helpful.
- Our site was shorter than noted on the park map and we barely fit. The manager was unwilling to move us to a longer site. Park is located near a fire station and sirens went off several times during the night.
- Example reviews with very little information (these may be sent back to the reviewer for revision):
- Great weather, we had fun!
- Avoid this park like the plague! I had a terrible time.
- Example reviews with useful information:
- New Park Listings: Special care is needed when submitting a review for a new listing. We count on you for accurate information. Please double-check the complete park name and spelling, phone number and URL for that park.
- Be Nice. This site is used by families. Profanity, punctuation marks designed to "trick" our obscenity filter, sexually explicit remarks, insults, extreme anger, extraneous and/or offensive comments about race, gender, sexual orientation, religion, and national origin are not acceptable.
