Anyone that has spent time in and around Lake Lake understands there are many reasons why they keep returning - this place is almost timeless. I truly haven't seen much change since I first visited the area almost twenty years ago. Certainly its remoteness can be attributed to its ability to continue to operate under the radar and other reasons are that there's simply not much industry and not many commercial ventures concentrated in the area so it's mostly dependent on the tourism and businesses that support that. One thing I still love about this area is that it hasn't embraced the circus atmosphere you find in other popular destinations. I come here to relax so when I was looking for a place close to the lake and golf courses to park our MotorCoach and no more than a few miles from Rumblings Bald Resort where a few of our friends were staying in their timeshares it was obvious Apple Valley Farm Motor Coach Resort was the only place to consider.
One of the things I loved about this beautifully landscaped RV Resort besides the many amenities that comes with each site is that I booked everything online and up to this point a few weeks after our stay I never once spoke with anyone associated with this resort in person or on the phone. I confirmed the site reservation a few months ahead of time and I was able to hand pick the exact site I wanted to reserve after reading the description of each site and reviewing the photos online. The payment was also online via a credit card. Upon our arrival after hours there was a packet waiting for us at the entrance to the resort with all the information we needed as well as the rules of the resort which were also provided with the online confirmation.
Each site is separated by privacy landscaping and are very spacious, the utilities are very well maintained and located in a convenient location on each lot to align with your MotorCoach connections. The site we reserved came with 50 amps of electric service, complete sewer connections and softened potable water (the water pressure was very strong so I suggest using your personal pressure regulator to protect you Motorhome's plumbing although they utilize the adjustable pro-flow yard hydrants for the supply).
We arrived on a Friday and stayed through the following Thursday and encountered zero issues, the resort is very quiet and peaceful and extremely clean. The bear proof trash bins are conveniently located so there's no need to keep any trash around your site that could attract wildlife, we didn't encounter any bears but there are bear awareness signs posted throughout the area so it's something to pay attention to in short be aware of your surroundings. I was able to circle the resort numerous times allowing me to get a nice view of most of the sites, being they are all somewhat unique since most I believe are privately owned and managed when not in use by the owner. The site we occupied had a raised deck overlooking the lake with several outside tables and a gazebo, there was also a charcoal and gas grill and a "porch swing". This resort will only accept reservations for Class A MotorCoaches which you must provide the information for including the make and model prior to getting a reservation confirmation. The mountains seem to provide a varying amount of sun and shade depending on the location of the site and time of the year of course, our visit was in September it seems we got get equal parts of both.
The condos and other accommodations in the area seem very nice but there's nothing like going on vacation and still being able to sleep in your own bed and enjoy all the luxuries of home. This resort is perfect for that and when you compare the rates well I don't know how anything compares to this... read more
