Golfers traveling with RVs have several courses to choose from

What can you expect from golf courses with overnight parking? The basic requirement for most campers is electric. Water and sewer connections are preferred but not absolutely necessary for a couple of nights for most self-contained rigs.

Most RV sites from golf courses come with all three connections, but it’s probably a good idea to confirm what is available before you book your stay. Here is a look:
