Where We Are Now

We landed this afternoon at Ely KOA Journey, pretty much right in the middle of Nevada, elevation, 6500 ft. This is just a stop-over for a night, but it really is a nice campground. We plan to drive around this after and check out the town.

Where to Next

From here we're heading north to Idaho. Our first stop is a place called Anderson Camp. We plan to spend a couple of days there so we can check out Shoshone Falls and what's left of Twin Falls

Our Visit

      It was quite an adventure getting to the Campground.  Following our GPS (which is set up to avoid roads that don't meet the specifications of our coach) it sent us on a fifteen-mile detour.  It seems that most of the roads in the area have a 7-ton rating, except for a curvy, twisty road around two lakes which is a very popular bike route.  (signs posted that bikes can use the full lane)  A half-hour later and ten dollars of diesel we arrived at the campground.

Morgan Hill on the map burnedWe found later, that the shorter routes to the campground are just fine for big rigs.  The roads are wider and there are no bridges warranting the weight restrictions.  When we arrived at Morgan Hill, the first thing we found was that the campground management is very strict on rules.  We needed to provide registration and proof of insurance on both the coach and the dinghy.  Then a ranger walked around the coach and inspected it.  We asked what exactly they were looking for and were told things like missing covers on running lights, body damage, cracked windshields or missing septic caps.  Then we asked what if... they have a place to park the coach and would be expected to run to Camping World to buy parts to fix whatever.  This hardly gave us a warm fuzzy feeling about the campground.  The park doesn't have full hook-ups and charges $25 to $50 to pump tanks.  On the plus side, the bathrooms and showers are very nice, we used them to avoid filling our black and gray water tanks.  A lot of the campsites are subject to flooding, but we managed to find one that wasn't too muddy.  I realize that I haven't painted a pretty picture of Morgan Hill.  Overall, the park was nice enough and it looks like improvements are continually being made.  In fact, the park is very popular and no longer has annual sites so that it can keep sites available for short term visitors.  It does allow monthly stays for a cool $1300.  The park's location is good and there are lots of things to do while there. I can't say that we wouldn't revisit the park in the future. 

Campground number one hundred twenty-nine.
