jenni.gannaway | Lovely backpackers with group and family rooms. R480 for the family room, R160 if you want to share. Just across the road from a farm stall with curios. Perfect spot to stop over or spend a few days. Will have a camp area in future. |

Soula | We enjoyed our stay there. The camp has been overtaken by a Womens Cooperative. We paid 1000 KSH. They still use pitlatrines but built a small showerhouse with black tanks on the roof, so the water was perfect. They fill the tanks by hand! We had 3G with Safaricard. One of the women showed us the huts they built, really very nice and she was so proud that they even have electricitiy in the huts. Right next to Acacia soon opens a new Lodge, they are not very happy about that. |

Schumacherjack | This is a fantastic, quiet, mystical and underused campground. Hardly anybody knows it exists and although this is fine for some of us who have been coming here for more than 35 years, the word must get out so that it continues to welcome guests. The sites are rustic but very accessible. The favourite sites are # 1 thru # 14 as these are right on Lake Huron, the Mississagi Strait. They are unserviced with the exception of 15 amp service for # 8, 9 and 10. There a few sites that have their own 15 amp service and water hookups but no sewer hookups or dumping station on site. This is an "off the grid" campground with very limited cell service, but that's it beauty. The campground is run on a seasonal basis by "Maddie" and her family and friends. Dogs allowed on leash. Boat launching is available. Water is potable. Shower and washroom on site.. Flat, clean sites will accommodate any style of camping from tents to 40 ft motorhomes. The prices are $30 per night and $40 for electrical. This place is quiet, clean and guaranteed to make you want to return time after time, Fishing is really good and I've caught Lake Trout right from the shore. The Lighthouse is fully operational guiding boaters 24 / 7 all year long. There is a common room in the Fog Horn building that makes the rare rainy day very enjoyable. I've been here twice already this year and may go a third time if I can swing it. Enjoy! |

lebusblanc.de | Very simple familiy owned homestay (there is a blue sign on the main road). Max. 2-3 cars fit in, we could stay in our van. As everywhere in this region the toilet is in the backyard, also shower super simple (but nice experience). People speak a little english. They also offer you food if you want to. |

MC3H | Very nice place in the middle of vineyard. We paid 15000 pesos for one campervan with 5 people in it. Toilet, hot shower, electricity and water. We also did laundry for 5000 pesos per charge. Had great time there with very nice people. We came back just to do the solar tour with our children. |

lil_dotz07 | A little hard to find. Google will probably try to send you down the wrong way. It's a left turn just before the archway/ entrance to the park. Sort of confusing when we were trying to figure out who to pay, but we talked to a few different people and figured it out. We stayed two nights. 30 pesos/person/night. Toilets not very clean, no seats, but at least had running water. The shower had good pressure and honestly was pretty refreshing in the July heat... Just try to ignore the bugs. Restaurants and bars close by, not the cheapest food but tasty. Pretty cheap beers. Good spot to check out the ruins. |

atenea | We were exiting Colombia and entering Ecuador. There are now separate queues for Venezuelan and other foreigners, so although there was a lot of people waiting for us it was fast and smooth. They just ask for your passport and stamp it. Looks like you can go to the DIAN to hand in your permit (and this is all you have to do there, nothing more) before or after Migrations, but I think it's better to do the latter first. |

atenea | We were entering Ecuador. Past Migrations, turning left, there is a small parking lot, but it was full we ended up leaving the car across the street where the "no parking" signs are :) Migrations was easy and fast since looks like Ecuador is also splitting queues for Venezuelans and other foreigners. Exit Migrations and turn right to find Customs. Looks like the right stand for importing your vehicle is number 2. They'll ask for the vehicle registration, driver's license, passport of the owner, and a photo of the vehicle plate *taken with a phone they'll give you right there* so no point in taking your own photo before. No copies needed, they'll take a picture of everything. No payments. They told us that insurance is not mandatory in Ecuador and we didn't see any insurance company around. Nosotros ingresamos a Ecuador. Pasando Migraciones, a la izquierda, hay un pequeño espacio para estacionar, pero estaba lleno y terminamos dejando el carro enfrente donde están los carteles de prohibido estacionar :) Migraciones fue sencillo y rápido ya que al parecer Ecuador también está separando las filas para venezolanos y otros extranjeros. Salí de Migraciones y doblá a la derecha para hacer Aduana. Parece que la ventanilla indicada para importar vehículos es la 2. Van a pedirte el registro del carro, licencia y pasaporte del conductor y foto de la placa delantera *tomada con un teléfono que te darán ellos mismos* así que no tiene sentido llevar una foto de antemano. No se necesitan fotocopias de nada, ellos toman foto de todo. Los trámites son gratuitos. En Aduana nos dijeron que en Ecuador no es obligatorio el seguro del carro, y no vimos empresas aseguradoras por el lugar. |

en la carretera | As said, quiet and safe place for the night. Very friendly guards told us we could stay for the night when we arrived at 20:00 - they even gave us a small Quechua lesson 😉 As the parking lot is quite big, our little cat could run around for 2hours, nice after a day in the van. The only problem was : why when you sleep in a touristic place in Peru, people are always very kind BUT have to come and awake you at 6:00 am ? 😭😭😭 The guards came at this time to make us register. The other night, in an other place, they came at the same time to tell us the next turn was arriving. Why so early guys ? |

krueger | This is a free Forest Service campground with vault toilets, running water, and a dumpster. The running water comes from the nearby reservoir and should generally be considered non-potable. However, I drank plenty of it and suffered no ill effects. The entire campground is flat and is easily maneuverable by RVs. However, the winding Hugh Glass Road (and easier South Cabin Road) which leads to the campsite may be challenging to drive for larger vehicles. You will pass over one or more cattle guards. Extreme caution should be exercised when driving on the grass on this campground. Tent campers leave behind metal stakes which will quickly destroy your tires. Before driving on the grass here, get out of your car and check your path for tent stakes. This was once a pay-for campground, but after the opening of the campground at Shadehill State Recreation Area, it was made free. Campers are limited to 14 days. After 14 days, you must leave with all of your property for 24 hours, and then you may return. This campground has several beaches and a boat ramp within walking distance. The boat ramp is not good for wading and swimming because how it is designed. Watch for cactus on the broken and overgrown stairway nearest the campground. This campground usually has more activity than nearby North Lemmon Lake WMA, but it is still considered a safe place to bring children. No glass containers or dumping allowed. Dumpster for campers only. The campground park follows the sign on the left. If you take sign on the left, you will head to the picnic area instead. There is another vault toilet in the picnic area, so if you camp far from the vault toilet in the picnic are you may wish to go the picnic area vault toilet instead, as it may be closer. Although the whole campground is well sheltered by tree plantings, treacherous winds sometimes strike here. If you are in need of an emergency tornado shelter, several are publicly available in nearby Lemmon, SD. Call the Perkins County Sheriff Department non-emergency number at 605-374-5651 to ask for their locations. Cell service is superb here. Groceries are available at the nearby Summerville store or further north at the Lemmon IGA truck stop/gas/station/grocery along the highway. Free maps of the National Forest lands, including the Grand River National Grassland, are available at the National Grasslands Visitor Center in Wall, SD. Because much of the land surrounding this campground is Forest Service land, it is accessible for free dispersed camping. The maps show exactly which roads one may camp off of. For wildflower enthusiasts,plant checklists and detailed driving instructions to nearby habitats can be found here: https://www.fs.usda.gov/Internet/FSE_DOCUMENTS/stelprdb5391406.pdf On the website, see the yellow circle. This is where the campground is. Although it says "State" lakeside use area, this is Forest Service land and not part of the fee area to the north at the Shadehill State Recreation Area. |
