It will fit most places. The only spots we had any problems with the other one was some of the provincial sites. Some are pretty old and don't have alot of room to maneuver. We do the bulk of our camping about 30 mins from home. Just this side of Hedley at a privately owned site with the full hookups. It's close but it's nice to get away.

That's the way I look at it Zip.
It's the whole idea of just getting away,being somewhere else.
We will drive 2-3 hrs. once a year to go to a particular spot way up the Shuswap.But it takes that long because of the roads.

We may make 1 or 2 longer trips a year and that's about it. Every couple years we have a little gtg with my side of the family in Revelstoke. I would like to get out on Highway 24 sometime this year.

The biggest problem we have had with camping isn't with size it has been with my dog. I say come out to my truck and meet her, I can give you numbers to call from other campsites for a reference. They are more worried about the dog than what we are like.

I can see that being a problem.It's a shame.
That has only been caused by pet owner's who bring their dog's up WRONG!
Those people shouldn't be aloud in,even without their dog.

The thing that bugs me is these places say the allow dogs. I don't really get upset about the ones that say no pets or pets on approval or have pet restrictions. I know I can't stay there and wont attempt to.

I made a reservation at a campsite in Chilliwack last fall. On the phone I asked do you allow dogs. I was asked how many. I said two. I asked about any restrictions. I was told no problem just keep them on a leash and clean up after they do their thing.

In my mind my dog was not an issue and made the reservation. We get there and we are doing the paper work and I said I have 2 dogs. She asked what kind. Boom we have a problem when they ask that question. So I tell the lady I have a rotty. She says you can't stay. I felt like ripping her head off. She said you should have called and asked. I told her I had called and was told they had no restrictions.

Back out to my truck to get on the phone to find another campsite. I call one and say I have a rotty and the lady was like, so what, not an issue.

Yea I think I am a dog lover. I don't really care if a site does not allow pets, or has pet restrictions. Just let me know when I ask. Puppy is fine. Had her at the vet yesterday and she now weighs 20 lbs at just over 10 weeks. She plays hard then sleeps hard.

That would be really frustrating to book a site then get told you have the wrong breed of dog. I probably would have probably got pretttty mad myself.
