Official 'Post a Picture of your Campsite at FW' Thread

They are solar powered twinkle lights from Sam's Club. They change color and are very cool. They are sold at Christmas time but we use them for year round camping lights. We don't have the original box but if Frank or son remembers the manufacturer I'll let you know.

I have been enjoying this thread so much. I have this thread open on one window and Shan-man's google earth site in another. I'm looking forward to a trip sometime next year (I hope I hope I hope).

Here's our site from the latest trip, #605. This is one of the new sites in the expanded 600 loop. The close proximity to the road never bothered us. What we didn't like was the complete lack of shade. Not fun in August. That aside, we loved the close proximity to the Meadow Trading Post, the pool and movie.

This was the view when I turned around.

I really want to try that loop out. I bet it is loud at times but I bet it is so much fun!

Here are a couple of pics of site 1509 from our trip last month.







We were able to put up our 17' X 18' tent and 15' X 15' screen room, but had very little room left over.

Site 1446​

This was a great site. Lots of room. Plenty of space between sites. Room for the kids to play, with tether ball and basketball right there. An easy walk to the Campfire and Movie, just a little bit further to the pool and Meadows Trading Post. We have grown to appreciate the sites, and placement of the 1400 loop.

Site 547 - we liked the central location and the proximity to the dog park - when the site across from us was vacant we just cut thru it and crossed the road and the dog park was right there....

Its hard to appreciate how large this site is... our trailer is over 37 ft long, plus our truck, and there was about 5-7 feet of pad behind our trailer, some green space, (lots of space on two sides between us and other campers... on the patio side the camper was kinda close). We used the 10 x 10 shelter, we had a golf cart and a scooter and there was still a ton of room on the pad for our stuff.

From Nov'09 - a great site for not being right on top of your neighbors and having plenty of privacy in the back. Also a pretty long site - our TT is 21' closed, 30' with the ends open...

Long paved area on this site, but still a nice sized sand pad in the back. For perspective, the mat that the dogs' pen is setup on is 9x12...

Denise,
What kind of lights are those along your driveway?
They look really neat!
Love the multi-colored effect!

I finally found the lights online.

New to FW but not DW. Headin down in August with a 30 MH no slide and no pets. Looking for lots of trees and difference between preferred and premium sites. How is 100 vs 1400? Have 11 and 8.

Thanks

Welcome to the boards! They are replacing a lot of vegetation recently that used to provide more privacy between the sites. There was a problem with a non-native, invasive plant that was taking over and choking the other plants out.

It's better than it used to be now that replanting has started, but you will probably find most sites have tall, mature trees for shade, but not much undergrowth between sites.

There is a really good thread on this board that lists the differences between the preferred vs. premium, including photos. I think you get a "deluxe" charcoal grill and more concrete pad in the premium loops. As with real estate, it's also about "location, location, location". The premium sites tend to be closer to popular places like the Settlement area.

Try the Google Earth application thread that is a sticky at the top of this board if you want to get some very detailed information about each site. Lots of work went into that.

Site 2014, Water, Electric, Cable, short distance to comfort station.

Wow that is a setup! I like the use of the EZ-UPs to give you a ton more room.

It's not fancy, but it's ours and it's homey...

RIP old Apache... Make way for the new Jayco this year!

We really like this site. The front apron was over 40ft wide, enough for a car to park along side of the RV. We centered the RV on the pad, but put it to the edge near the electric, and still had about 20ft behind us of concrete. There was a tether ball across from us and a sidewalk out to the main street directly in front of us. The comfort station "off road trail" was directly next to our rig too.
