Check-Ins

Quiet, clean camp sites. As described. Just a babbling brook, birdsong and the breeze sighing through the pines to disturb your tranquility. At least mid-week when you'll likely have the place to yourself.

What a wonderful campsite!!! Gorgeous spots on the Zambezi, super peaceful, nice ablutions. We loved the host, Jakku (?) what a nice man, very welcoming. He has 2 sweet dogs, one of which a puppy who was adorable, who often came for hugs. Multiple spots on the river, and many off the river, but there were only 1-2 other couples while we are there. Too bad that there was music coming from the neighbors, for most of the day and evening into the night (we used earplugs at night).

Nice pool!!

Potawatomi Campground. You have to reserve a campsite at least 2 days in advance and thats the same website for any Illinois state parks. Pretty quite! Had showers! $25 plus fees. Has electrical hook ups as well.

Head to the "carrefour Sogafrique", then walk a little further than the Hotel Masuku, opposite side. Here you can apply for your visa in 1 day (1 month, FCFA50.000). Very friendly people. If you don't have your own vehicle, they can recommend you a taxi driver to pick you up on the other side of the border, in Kabala, and take you to Okoyo, Boundji or Oyo.

lugar super tranquilo para pernoitar, tem ponto de água e luz para MH. Nos sentimos super seguros, sem contar que dificilmente estará sozinho por lá. Sempre encontrará um colega de estrada.

Not bad. Super nice neighbor so you really should be discrete. I parked on a side street maybe 3 or 4 blocks from this spot. Just ride around a bit and look for the side streets that aren’t directly in front of peoples houses and have trailers and boats. No issues.

Sand beach, good view of the lake, some spots right on water

Best bathrooms we've ever come across! We were charged 20S pp, but the views and privacy were so worth it. Lots of outlets and about 20MBPS internet.

Big spot that can fit large trailers. There are two fire pits, a big one and a small one. Right on the lake and there is also an outhouse. The site is a little muddy because people usually ride ATVs around here.

Clean campground for all types of camping. Hot showers, laundry, WiFi, store & kid/family friendly facilities. The price is a bit steep but we really wanted a legit shower at this point!

This place wasn’t horrible, I had weak AT&T and weak Verizon however I was bothered and stared at ALOT here. Someone even called the cops even though I was minding my own business. Normally I would’ve left but I was out of money so stayed for two weeks and there were a lot of people that drove down the road and just left. No one really stayed the night except some backpackers. There’s a better place down the road at Teton reservoir with better AT&T service however there are a lot more people that camp and stay.

The campground is ok but the view of the mountain is wow !!
Paid 20$ for first come first served time of the year low season

Stayed one night near the main soaking pool. Water was cooler than a year ago and perfect for soaking. Great sunset and stars. Note: when there's a big water pump set up be ready for big trucks coming by in the morning, I think the water is used for irrigation. No other campers until one other car came very late at night.

Not a bad spot to stay the night. Got here right before dark, so there were only a few spots left. There were a few sketchy looking campers with dogs barking for quite a while, but they didn't bother me. Not very private. Would stay here again if it was the only option.

Beautiful place! We saw dolphins here, hope you to!

Very beautiful place! Nice to snorkel and see the sunset. probably crowded in the summer, but worth the try

Marking this place since it has two bars verizon. Pretty fast. Ok for working. But this is a small parking on side of road. Not ok for camping

Just checking in to change category from „Established Campground“ to „Informal Campsite“. This is a gas station and no campground.

Hot showers and flush toilets with paper are available at the comfort station, as well as electrical outlets for a hair dryer. Dumping is free if you stay the night, $5 otherwise. There is a water hose at the dump drain that usually works. You can pay for day use and swim in the pond or hiking, or purchase a provincial day pass for your vehicle that is good at all the provincial parks. Cell service is spotty in this area.

There are ramps on/off the trans Canada highway with an underpass for easy access in both directions.

Clean showers, good clean laundromat with friendly helpful staff. Showers are $7.50 ea.

I spent a few hours here uploading photos with my laptop. Lots of tables with outlets. They have computer terminals you can use but they may limit the time to 30 minutes.
Clean bathrooms and shaded parking.

Public WIFI provided by the concession stand. Lots of tables, some shaded in the late afternoon. This spot is above the beach and provides an amazing view. Restrooms are available during the day here and at the parking lot to the south.

The golf course security from next door will probably ask you to leave, but it's not their private property along the gravel road. It's a decent spot in a pinch if you find yourself having to stay in the area.

We stayed for a quiet night. See no reason why it is marked close. A small road from the gravel road leads you to a place with fire rings. We didnt used them as it was very dry.

Open for use. No need to sign in at admin office. No charge. No potable water.

Pretty much between Prins Albert and the foot of the Swartberg Pass. 6 Campsites and some chalets. Good ablution facilities, with lots of hot water and super clean.

Sites are basic, however they have a small covered lapa (that I can imagine is a godsend in summer) and have single light and electricity point.

Lots of baboons in the valley, however none come down to the campsite. Super quiet at night and great skies above. Really enjoyed the one night we stayed.

We stayed at Campsite #8 and the Camp Manager - Computer - introduced us to Solo our hippo and our very own Fish Eagle. The ablutions are basic but clean and there is plenty of hot water and enough pressure to wash your hair! The campsite has a bin.

We drove around the area and into the hippo pools along the road - we saw plenty of antelope and plenty of hyena and elephants and we followed a pride of seven lions hunting some poor wee warthogs! There were also 4 different types of vultures and a number of ‘fuglies’ (marabou stork) close to a mostly gone elephant carcass. There are Meyers Parrots screeching about and many water birds.

Khwai is a magical place - we spent 4 days next to the river and never tired of the view or the bee-eaters zooming about or the elephants crossing the river right opposite us. There seems to be more stars in Botswana and maybe the best best sunsets are sent to Khwai. We spent a very pleasant afternoon in a mokoro with Tendra - it’s just sooo very relaxing floating about between the water lilies listening to the frogs and the Fish Eagles. It’s absolutely the Okavango without the park fees ! Weeks later as we continue to travel in Botswana Khwai remains in our hearts.

It’s impossible to access the small lake in your vehicle….period. You HAVE to walk in from the parking lot and it is locked up tight after 6 pm. We arrived after 6 so just spent the night outside the gates right along the irrigation canal. You can see on the iOverlander map where the road ends, crosses the bridge then runs up the other side of the canal. We actually parked where the bridge crosses over and not where it’ pinned. It was a very hot evening so we swam in the clear water of the canal just like all the locals were doing. We had a super quiet night as it’s at the end of the road so zero traffic until 7:45 am when a huge tour bus showed up.
It IS possible to camp in the parking lot of Media Luna overnight for 150 pesos and have access to water, and a port a pottie but only if you get there before closing time then you are locked in for the night.
It is a beautiful place for a swim especially if you walk through the park right to the small deep lake. Most of the locals just swim in the shallower rivers closer to the restaurants. The showers and bathrooms are now free even though the signs are still up listing prices.
I hope this clears up the parking issue for others as we made several attempts to drive to this pin which is impossible.

Nice spot along the Chanel between Sturgeon Bay and Lake Michigan. We spent a quite night here. Easy access for all vehicles.

Provincial Park site CAD 20.00 (firewood provided, honour system), small campsite, sites in tall mixed forest, tables, firepits, very quiet. Black bear around campsite reportedly.
