Not unclean showers and spooky odd men should be associated with camping; rather, it should bring to mind recollections of the beautiful outdoors and family time. According to TripAdvisor reviewers, these three RV parks and campsites are among the worst in the entire USA. Come at your own risk. From 79 evaluations, 59 of which were “terrible,” this Alaskan park has an extremely poor 1.5-star rating. The filthy facilities, rowdy people, and “terrible management” were all complaints from visitors.

160 reviews have given the Fireside Buffalo Valley RV Park in Moran, Wyoming a 2.5-star rating. The park receives 47 “terrible” ratings, 30 average ratings, 36 “very good” ratings, and 18 “excellent” ratings. The staff’s demeanor seems to be the main complaint. Tali T, who visited the park in September of last year, was one of the reviewers who gave it just one star.
She stated: “We do not recommend it at all and will not return. The service here is extremely unfriendly, all the facilities are very basic, and there are very few in comparison to the number of guests.” She was not the only one who had issues with the staff’s attitude. Other than the location, Ken T from Washington wrote: “This place is run and the employees are rude.”
However, other guests enjoyed their stay. Santa Clarita resident David G wrote: “You got to love waking up to spectacular sunrises and a herd of horses having their breakfast. The sunsets were just as awesome. The sites were small, but the rustic atmosphere made up for any shortcomings.”
