When creating Parkcamper, we asked numerous campers at campgrounds
across America what they would like to know about a campground
before making reservations or planning their trip. We were not
surprised to hear "noise" as the number one answer,
even ahead of how the campground looks. The truth is, most campgrounds
in national forests or national parks look nice because that is
the nature of national parks and national forests. These lands
were set aside from development for a reason.
As visitors to national parks and national forests know, not
all campgrounds are created equal. Some seem to be mere afterthoughts,
tucked away in hidden nooks. Others have entrance stations which
require you to stop and pay before entering the campground, causing
traffic jams, noise pollution and dirty air. Below you will find
two mp3 files of two campgrounds Parkcamper.com staff have visited
in the last year. We feel that audio says quite a bit about a
campground, and we think you'll agree after hearing the clips.

While not all differences between campgrounds are so extreme,
they can and do occur. We plan to reveal these specific campgrounds
in a week or so.
As you can hear, there's much more to our great national
park and national forest campgrounds than a few photos on the
web. This is why you won't hear cheesy music or pointless narration
in our realistic videos. What you see is what you get, just like
you'd be standing in the campground. It is this realistic experience
which fostered the drive to create Parkcamper.com, and to help
those visiting our parks and forests save time and money. We hope
you found this page useful.
