RV Parking place #89
http://www.iolarvparkandstorage.com/default.aspx
Once upon a time while crossing Kansas on US-54 with no particular place to spend the night we spotted a billboard on the outskirts of Iola advertising the RV park. It turned out to be a rather new and modern, smallish, RV park/storage facility. The owner/manager was a young fellow with a goal of 1st class service for all customers on the top of his list.
We spent two nights there. Had a wonderful dinner at a restaurant recommended by the RV park manager. The next day we visited the Veterans Memorial Wall and took a Trolly ride around town.
Stop by and spend a night if you’re passing through. You might extend a day to take in the atmosphere.
Here are pictures of our parking site.
We have stayed at Countryside a couple of times in the past but only for a night or two. It’s an easy off and back on I40 when crossing TN and a quiet place to stay. We have not been there since it changed hands into the KOA family of campgrounds.
Although in a hilly section its sites were easy to park in and the family service and atmosphere was above average. In other words, a nice place to stay and feel safe.

This US Navy facility is off base. Here is the Authorized Users List: Active, National Guard, Reservists, Retired, 100% DAV. DOD Civilians.
I’ve been a member of the link above for about 12 years. There are pictures of our rig and our friends Montana in the link. Whenever we stay at a military facility I write a review and post it with pictures and the site owner posts some of the pictures on his site.
Foster Creek RV Park used to be a trailer park. Its updated facilities are very user friendly for RVs. The sites are large and easy to park in.

This is a RV park that we often use. Especially if we are in the area with our fiver on the weekends.
There are two distinct sections in this park. One is for long term or seasonal patrons and the other is for shorter periods. Everything is FHU with many sites large enough for the largest Motor Homes and whatever they are hauling.
The adjacent Flea Market is their main drawing point. There is another Flea Market about a half mile down the road in an old drive-in movie theatre. It is about three quarters open air with less regular venders than the one at Barnyard.
Don’t miss the Flight Deck Restaurant in downtown Lexington. Aviation buffs will love the motif.

The pictures below were taken at different times of the year to show that the foliage does change significantly with the seasons in central SC.
In one picture there are two brownish Motor Homes parked side-by-side. They were nearly identical as were the brothers driving them.
Another picture is an example of the size of the larger sites. The red roofs in the picture’s background are part of the flea market.
Another picture shows some young men trying-out their purchases from some flea market vendor.
