Army Corps of Engineers , June 7, 2008 By  P. Morrisey (Foster City, California) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)    I rated this book a five as it saved me a whole bunch of $$ on my first RV trip. I used the book in conjunction with the recreation.gov website. The combination of the two enabled me to make a trip halfway across the US staying at excellent campgrounds, off the beaten path and at very reasonable prices. This book more than paid for itself with its first use. As opposed to private campgrounds, these COE sites are generally spacious, private, and not located by highways and train tracks. 10 of 10 people found the following review helpful: 4.0 out of 5 stars Neat little companion, July 12, 2008 By  Peggy Little - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)    Great resource if you are traveling to unknown places.

Great resource if you are traveling to unknown places. Corp Campgrounds are described and we find they have great value. Usually near water and always have some interesting 'history' surrounding them. Especially valuable for "Seniors" with the Golden Age Passport.

4.0 out of 5 stars Camping with the Corp of Engineers, January 18, 2008

By	Peter Holden (Holly Lake Ranch, TX) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Great book that shows all the locations of Corp camping parks with contact info. Very complete. If you are camping near the border of one state besure to check the neighboring state for close Corp camgrounds as well, because there is not an overall USA locator map.
