Cell Phone Service Added to Camp Review Form

Besides a few minor adjustments to the campground review form, I just added a new category for cell phone service experience.

During a recent “Cell Phone Service” discussion on the forum, one of our regular contributors (Wersilly) suggested that cell information would be a good addition to the campground review form, and I wholeheartedly agreed.

While some may disagree, thinking it is unfair to rate something that the campground has no control over, I think it’s something that affects the camping experience, whether good or bad.

Do I think lack of cell service is important enough to discourage a camper from visiting a campground? No, I don’t think so, after all, it’s CAMPING. But if a location does not offer cell service then it’s helpful to know beforehand. This will allow the camper to be prepared, especially if they are expecting to keep in contact w/ their employer or family member. If it’s known beforehand that cell phone service is not available, then a camper can make other arrangements or let their contact(s) know ahead of time that they cannot be reached at the campground.

I hope review contributors will include this information on any new reviews sent in to us. It’s details like this that make our reviews so helpful to our visitors! Thanks for all your support!

  1. Stadig campground in Wells, ME is rustic and wonderful to anyone looking for a true camping experience.  Trolley pick up at the campground, so no need to drive and park at the beach.  I have three children, a husband and a pop up.  We camped there last year in August 2007 with my brother in law, sister in law and their nieces.  We have three kids of our own and we all have pop up campers.  Fabulous seasonal campers there; very friendly.  Cleanest bathrooms and laundry houses I’ve seen. Wicked (NE Term) friendly owners.  We had no trouble with this campground.  Absolutely going back in a few weeks.  No doubt the Newell family will camp there for years to come!
