Mistletoe State Park | BACK TO CAMPING | Appling, GA - (Mission 016)

- Mistletoe State Park was our destination for this long-overdue return to RVing! It's a fairly short ride for us, being just outside of Appling, GA, meaning we spent more time camping and less time driving! Take a look as we show you the beautiful countryside on the way there, the gorgeous waterfront campsites on the shores of Lake Thurmond, and the lush almost-rainforest-like hiking trails that meander through the park. We were so happy to be released from "COVID Clamp-Down" that we'd have enjoyed this trip no matter what the park was like, but so much the better that we found it to be a great place to spend a long weekend with the "Aluminum Falcon!"

Great review of the comfort facilities! Thanks! Very few reviews discuss what the tent campers need and fewer still show pictures!
Well, we do believe that Tent Campers are people, too. 😉 We're glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching!
Great look with lights !!!!
Thank you! Jessie takes this as confirmation of her decorating taste! 😜
Got out this weekend. Two things: how do you like the Murphy bed. 2. You need to purchase a remote control alligators to scare a certain someone when near water! Nice job on the lights Jess.
Thanks, Scott! The Murphy bed is great, especially in our floor plan. Didn't work quite as well in our previous RV, which was 6 ft. shorter.
Thanks for a great video! I will add this place to my list of places to go!
Thank YOU for watching! You'll like Mistletoe. It's close enough to home for us that I'm sure we'll be back next spring!
Don't you be talkin' bad about bass fishing, now!! Looks like a fantastic place, tho - I bet you guys got some real relaxing done that weekend! Keep up the good work!
Thanks, bro! You just fish away - we won't take any away from you! 🤣
Beautiful park! It looked very much like it was clean and the bathrooms looked clean too. The cleanest I have seen so far. How did your gritted turn out when you cooked on it? Love you your out door kitchen. Love the lights Jessie put up. How did she hang those up so nicely on the awning? What dud she use? After the lights were up it looked really nice. Thank you for this video. Hope you are having a great holiday.
Hey! I found some clips at Hobby Lobby that I used to string the lights on our awning, but I'd bet they could be found on Amazon, too. Thanks for watching our video! We sure hope you're having a great Christmas and New Year's week! ❤️
@@LiveNLearnRV thank you so much. I thought it was cute how you were hanging the lights on the awning. Hope you have the very best of holidays. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
I should of waited until the video was over to make my first comment, because I saw you use TOOLS! And you didn't break anything or require first aid. Very proud of you.
Well, as the old saying goes, even a blind pig can come across an truffle every now and then... 😉
Love your videos. I grew up down in Charleston, SC and would love to get back to do some camping. These parks are nice, but are they big rig friendly, like a 38' Super C? Oh, I was beginning to think you two were actually up around Seattle where it rains like 280 days a year.
Thanks for watching! The pull-through site we had when we were there could easily accommodate "big rigs" like yours. We had plenty of room on either end, and there were some other sites that had similar space. ...and believe me, we suffered through enough rain last year for THREE camping seasons!
Great site. Do you recall which number? Only an hour from home for us.
Oh, Lord! You're testing my memory! I want to say that was site #76, but I would never swear to that. I guess you could pull up the campground map on Mistletoe's website and look for the pull-through spot that was directly across from that bath house. 🤷🏼♂️
Those nature trails are so pretty 💚
Aren't they, though!?!? We definitely recommend Mistletoe to anyone thinking about a camping stay in this area! 👍🏻
Glad you were able to get out and go camping. We are headed to an RV park for Memorial Day weekend although it won't. We have to be self-contained as the bathrooms, pools, clubhouse, etc are all closed.
It's great to be camping again, but we're also ready to arrive at these parks and see some PEOPLE! We've always enjoyed meeting the park staff and talking to them about their parks, and shopping in the camp stores for magnets and t-shirts! That's part of the fun for us, and we want it back!! 😩
X chocks are a great product never camp without them
Oh, yeah! We're pretty new to a double-axle trailer, but the need for those things became obvious fairly darn quickly!!
Love your videos. What campsite did you stay at?
Thank you!! Which site at Mistletoe? Lordy, that was a while back, so memory can't be trusted, but something in the back of my mind is telling me 76. I won't swear to that, tho...
Oh, how good it is to see you two back out in the world! Great video, as always!
Thank you! 😃More to come - count on it!
Nice video guys. Love the shots from the trailer. So how and where did you mount the camera?
I assume you mean our "camper-cam"? That's a GoPro mounted right at the edge of the nosecap that I just keep running all the time while we're in transit. I use one of the sticky-mounts that come with all GoPro cameras, and the clip and un-clip the camera as needed.
That is what I meant. I like that shot but I think I'm still too chicken or fearful of losing the camera. As you know they aren't super cheap but it is one of my favorite cameras. Thanks again for the info
I get it - I had the same fear at first, but I promise it's safe. I even used an El-Cheapo Chinese knock-off camera in the mount the first time to see if it'd stay fixed in place (figured if I lost THAT camera it wouldn't be that big a deal). That mount or whatever camera I've had in it has never budged.
I just started watching your videos. You look so familiar and I didn’t put it together until I watched your Santee state park video and you went home for thanksgiving dinner. We went to school together. I believe that you graduated with my brother and my cousin. Love your videos. Maybe I’ll run across y’all camping somewhere. Good luck and be safe.
Of course I remember! Not only did we go to the same school, you and I were also co-workers at my very, very first job - at the greenhouses! I'm tickled pink you found our channel and are liking our stuff! If you camp South Carolina parks as much as we do, it's entirely possible we'll see each other. Keep watching - we'll make more of these things! Give Tim my regards, too!
Got to feel good to get back to camping! Our rig is still jacked up getting air bags installed for the planned Alaska trip. Great to see you back
Brother, it was SO NICE!! We knew we needed it, but I don't think we realized just how MUCH we needed it until we got there! Oh, and we're hoping like crazy that the Alaska trip happens as scheduled! 🙏🏼
Great to see you two enjoying camping again!
Thanks for watching! We hope there'll be lots more to come!
Nice to see you guys back on the road again! Hope you have a great summer of traveling!
Thanks! We probably won't be venturing farther than fifty miles from home for quite some time, but it sho' beats being stuck in the back yard!! We'll be watching you vagabonds!!
Thank you 😊
You're welcome 😊
Great to see you back out camping again! Can't wait for things to start opening a little more here too. Great video, guys!
Thanks, Coach! We've all got to get "roaming" again! Mankind isn't meant to live confined in their caves!! 😞
We just got out for our first camping trip last weekend. We feel the same! So good to get out again.
That is awesome! Now the trick is to go again... and again... AND AGAIN!! 😉
Glad to see you got out camping! Camping is still closed in the PNW. We’re in Washington State, and hope to get out in June or July. Love your videos!
We wish everybody could get back out! Your state has gotta open things back up!! Since when was being out in the woods or by a lake ever been dangerous??? Well, except for the bears, that is... 😝
Greetings from the peoples republic of California! Great vid, what a beautiful campground! Love to see more of the trailer... How was the outdoor kitchen on this unit, did it perform like you thought it would? Love to hear your thoughts on the trailer. Its comfort and the convenience of all the interior features. This is the unit I want to own someday soon so it would be great to know your thoughts on it. Thanks again for allowing those of us that are still locked down to remember what freedom looks like. Take care and keep living and learning!
Halloooo out there on the Left Coast!! Thanks a bunch for taking a look at our video! We did a fairly comprehensive review of "Aluminum Falcon 2.0" when we first brought him home (which you can see right here: czcams.com/video/ESJlsD-T4Qk/video.html), so be sure to check that one out, too! Keep watching in the weeks to come and we'll show some of our starting to use that exterior kitchen a bit more. Y'all hang in out there!! #FreedomFromFear
@@LiveNLearnRV you guys are my favs so you can bet I'll be tuned in to all your adventures. Thanks again. stay safe.
Oh yeah the freedom is so amazing to have back although we are still a bit restricted where we are in the UK. You are definitely lucky to have your camper...flying sound like a pain in the x Great to follow your adventures. It looks beautiful there.
So true! We sure hope all of you folks on the other side of "the Pond" can get back out into the wild very, very soon, too! Thanks for watching!!
We are finally going camping memorial weekend to Riverbend campground in Hiawassee Ga. Enjoyed y’all video as always.
Yay!! We've all gotta get back out there! Thanks for watching!
Great video, will definitively have to put this one on the to check out list. We finally got to go this past weekend to Fort Mountain State park here in Chatsworth Ga. Stay Safe.
Thanks for watching! By all means, we definitely recommend Mistletoe. We're glad to hear you got out, too! We're all waaaayyyy overdue!
What site did you stay at Mistletoe?
We were in site #76, right across from bathhouse #3.
