Summertime is the perfect time to hit the road and go camping.

According to Condor Ferries, "RV ownership has grown from 7.9 million households in 2005 to over 9 million today. Over 11% of US households own a recreational vehicle."

"RV's" are very popular and finding a great RV park is part of the experience. I remember growing up going with my parents to RV shows and seeing the best recreational vehicles in America and touring these fantastic vehicles.

So how did Reader's Digest come up with the "best" RV park list?

"We didn't just choose these RV parks by throwing a dart at a map. We combined expert recommendations, user reviews and star ratings to make sure you're getting the best of the best. And we didn't stop there: We verified all the info to make sure these parks are still top-notch."
