Don't let the pretty picture fool you, like the view did us. We camped at the EZ RV Park outside Oliver, B.C. from late May until late July 2015 and I am SO happy to be outta there. OK, it wasn't ALL bad. Here are some of the Pros: … [Read more...]

Campground Showers: One Experience I’d Prefer Not to Repeat

December 7, 2013 by Rosalind Gardner 6 Comments

The KOA agent at the desk apologized repeatedly for the delay, which she said was caused by a trainee mixing up our reservation with that of another Gardner. I smiled pleasantly and said "no problem", while thinking "Quit blaming the trainee … [Read more...]
