Product Description
The 35th annual edition of the Trailer Life Directory is full of the accurate information RVers have come to rely on as well as new features that make it more useful than ever. Up-to-date, full descriptions and details are provided for nearly 12,000 public and private campgrounds. Each yeah, private campgrounds are evaluated and rated according to Trailer Life’s stringent inspection standards. The listings include: location and directions; phone numbers and email addresses; rates; opening and closing dates; number and types of sites available; amenities such as WiFi and modem hookups, ATM access, security, laundry, pet restrictions, dump stations, and recreation facilities; and much more. A new “reserve online” designation for participating parks allows reservations to be made with a click of a mouse, and each listing now includes zip codes for GPS and satellite users. Full-color state maps pinpoint over 10,000 cities and towns with RV facilities. Rounding out this special edition are prior covers, milestones, and a history of the past 35 years of RV travel.

 Very Satisfied With Trailer Life Directory May 5, 2008
I have used Trailer Life Directories before but this one is even better.
I really appreciate the charts that show trailering laws and etc. for each state. The campground descriptions are very complete and accurate. It is worth the money.
 Good resource; gets dated quickly February 20, 2008

Actually, I don't own the 2007 Trailer Life directory. I own the 2006 and 2008 editions (the latter has been out about two months). For 2007, I purchased Woodall's Directory instead. My wife and I spend a few months camping each year--often without prior reservations. We are primarily tourers rather than destination campers, covering a large section of the US or Canada each year and not staying in one place more than a few days at a time. Thus, some of the campground amenities like recreation programs are unimportant to us. We do care about issues like price and cleanliness, and both publications do on-site ratings of many of the listed campgrounds each year. We both preferred Trailer Life over Woodall's because it gives more information we do want to know, like if a facility has showers. Neither Trailer Life nor Woodall's lists anywhere near all the campgrounds, but both are comprehensive enough to be useful. However, the information becomes dated pretty quickly, and the most current edition is always a year behind in terms of ratings and prices (e.g. the 2007 edition would show 2006 ratings and prices). Although I'm sure the 2007 edition is as good as the 2006 & 2008 editions, I wouldn't recommend it now because its information is now essentially two years old. I would instead purchase the 2008 edition from the publisher or from Amazon.com when they have it available. If I was rating the most current edition I would give it 4 stars.
Vacation Planning August 23, 2007

We recently went on a vacation that we planned to be non-structured. We did not make reservations anywhere. Just drove until we felt the need to stop. This directory made our trip and finding a campground a memorable experience. We relaxed and had such a wonderful time!! We didn't want to come home!
Great book for starter August 10, 2007

I think this is a great book containing a lot of good info. Though it doesn't contain all. But it's a good starting anchor point for beginners' RV trips.
A big advertisement for the Good Sam Club August 3, 2007
7 out of 7 found this review helpful
It's true this telephone-book sized guide has many listings. However, it has nearly as many ads for it's apparent sponsor, the Good Sam Club. We found it extremely annoying to plow through pages of ads looking for the actual campground listings. We also had to tear out a bunch of ad inserts that if left in, made the book fall open to where they were inserted. Finally, none of the campgrounds we've used and enjoyed in Northern and Central California were listed in the book. Could it be because they're not part of the Good Sam network? All in all, barely 3 stars for us. We take Tom Stienstra's book over this one any time.
