I take reviews like this with a grain of salt. Many owners and their friends can load up a review site with glowing reviews to get business in the door. Any group of reviews that doesn't have at least some negatives or neutrals is a warning sign to me. Humans in general are complainers...no matter how good a place is, somebody will complain about something.

There's going to " + " and " - " to staying at a campground. Do some research first. I happen to think the price listed in some of these comments isn't accurate for a cabin. You might be able to find something cheaper if that's what you are into. Course you won't be able to have a fire at motel 6.....All depends on what you want

The cabins in most RV parks are designed for groups(families,etc). Most have more than one bed, so if traveling alone you might be better off to find a motel or use a tent. I know the ones at a campground I worked at in N. Dakota didn't have toliets,running water and 2 didn't have electric at all. I think with having to pack a sleeping bag, or what ever you want to sleep under, a person would be better off to find a mom/pop motel in the area. Most are clean and unless the owners name is Bates, I would stay in most before staying in a campground cabin.

KOA always good value.
Be aware that the grounds are hammered due to heavy use, but always clean and pretty quiet at night...early risers departing may wake you earlier than you want.
But that helps if you like to get going by 9.
I think "KOA" is Commanche for "by the railroad tracks"....
Lava Hot Springs UT has amazing shower/ rest room facilities, owner must be in the stone and tile business.
I mostly use my tent but will Kabin with wife once in a while, especially if raining.
They can be priced close to budget motel, so you have to choose what fits your circumstance.
most have wifi, I use my ipod touch to check weather ahead and plan route ( mcdonalds and starbucks also good for wifi)
