I volunteered for a couple of weeks with Team Rubicon to do disaster recovery after Hurricane Michael in Marianna, FL. That area got hit really hard. It was heartbreaking, yet one of the most emotionally rewarding experiences in my life. I'll never forget it. -Dean

I'm greatful you take the time to explain HOW TO find places on computer for us dummies or computer challenged.

[jimmybenfield]

I just have to say, you guys put the ying with the yang. I have never seen two people who completely compliment each other better than the two of you. I look forward to every video and I have never lost interest in any you have ever made. Keep up the great videos and you will have me full timing even sooner. Thanks again.

We e stayed at COE at Perry Lake and Clinton Lake in Kansas. The COE provides the levy systems in our area on the Kansas and Missouri rivers. I worked closely with them when I was employed on the BNSF railway. Great folks!

Milford Lake, Kansas near Junction City Ks, The Big Red One division is stationed here. We had a 100 year flood last year. We were 18 feet over conservation level. We were holding back water to help protect the Mississippi delta area. It wiped out most of the COA campgrounds. Yes, It is/was our favorite spot to camp. It will be years for us to recover. The devastation is/was unbelievable. It makes me so sad. Thank you for volunteering.

We love COE camping! Mill Creek is our favorite. A beautiful place on Table Rock Lake near Kimberling City, MO, because it's close to home.

[colag]

We stay every year at the Army Corp Engineers in Carlyle, Illinois at Boulder Campground $9 a night. Right on the lake just BEAUTIFUL very peaceful. Open till October 30th some full hookups, several elec & water then of course a few with nothing which is like $12 a night so you would pay $6 a night!!! Thanks for sharing the info. Im still very confused as to how to find sites. We have the senior card. Again, TY

[gainesnichols]

Stayed at R Schafer Heard in West Point, GA on West Point Lake. It's a beautiful place. Very diverse type of sites from fully shaded to totally exposed.

[RunawayWithTheClarks]

Stop telling people all about my camping secrets. You guys are making this hard for us to find the best spots. Miss you guys.

[pantherminus]

We have been fulltime for about 2yrs now, at a workamper gig currently in AZ. We have found the Military's campgrounds to be our most favorite. One of our most favorite is a hidden gem in north Florida Camp Blanding.
Go Army Beat Navy!

Additional information - The Military Lifetime Pass is now available free for Gold Star Families and US military veterans with a valid, veteran ID. It does the same thing as the Military Annual Pass that Active Duty military can use (6:27). I got mine by showing my Retired Military ID Card. It covers all day use fees, camping fees are extra.
You need the Access Pass to get the discount on camping.

I saw your video on the COE in AL. So I searched to find how to book. Thank you so much for this video. We will be staying at our first COE next week in CA. I really appreciate you two.

Lake Restock near Pella Iowa. Lots of camping, bike trails, swimming.

[Cue]

Thanks for an excellent video. I got an Access pass and went to Old Federal Campground on Lake Lanier. It was great. Sure couldn't beat the price. Now I only look for COE campgrounds. Thank you both. I had two Allegro motorhomes, when I was younger. I sure miss them. Enjoy

We've stayed at maybe 6 or 7 COE parks over the years. We stopped at a couple last summer on the way home. I can't say one is my favorite so far. But we have 3 or 4 more on our RVTW map for this summer. The campgrounds are the best federal campgrounds, no contest. They have huge sites that will take just about any RV. All the ones we've used are backin. They have a lot of room between sites too.

I have never seen a hiking trail at one but we haven't been to that many. They are number one about water sports.

If they have utilities most of the time it is water and electric. We haven't run into a FHU. When making reservations be careful because they will have multiple sites around one lake. And the utilities at each cg may vary. So get a reservation with the utilities you want and don't get a rude surprise when you arrive. I don't recall ever seeing a dump site either.

One big thing you should have mentioned, COE locations are mainly east of the Mississippi or maybe right across the River.

OK and lastly a historical bone to pick as a Navy guy. So far as I know every landing by the Army or Marines was preceded by Navy Divers: UDT. They cleared underwater mines and obstacles and mapped the beach. The infantry then hit the beach, I don't recall one account of COE men running around the beach clearing mines and tank traps on Omaha beach. After the landing I can see it.

COEs are our favorite placer to camp. So far Gunter Hill in Montgomery AL is our favorite and we have actually been there three times so far. Great place to camp when on your way to or leaving the "mother ship" in Red Bay.

[HarryandOjie]

Great that many folks are volunteering, Im retired Navy also, and volunteer mostly through the church, but volunteering keeps us retire guys busy. Keep up the great content

[rad-travelers]

Thank you so much for coming to help! We live in Panama City, FL and road out the storm in our home. Buying an RV to live in while our home was renovated is what led us to the full-time RV life.

[ridingtheroad]

LOVE COE Parks! GA has a great one outside Augusta, Petersburg.

[reallycarolyn]

When I saw your title, I thought oh, no, they are going to give away the really good "secrets." Thank you for holding those back!
