Our
RV club had it’s May rally at the Two Rivers RV Resort in Sevierville, TN but we were unable to attend due to a previous
commitment. We were available on Sunday
and the rally hosts invited us to come up for the day for a repeat of the low
country boil we made at last year’s rally in the Charleston, SC area.
Before
discussing the meal, here’s a little about the park beginning with a shot from
Google Earth.
As you can see, it sits on the French Broad River with
55 sites – 25 pull-ins on the river and 30 back-ins with a river view – so all
of the coach fronts face the river. They had such good photos on their
website, I decided to use them rather than take my own
This is such a nice place, I hate we missed out camping here, especially in that end site parallel to the river. For comparison, the nightly rate for the riverfront sites here is $65, the highest rate at Anchor Down is $69
I guess it's all about location, competition, and the KOA name as this site is not in the same league as the other two.
And now back to the rally. We made the hour and ten minute
drive and spent the afternoon visiting with club members before firing up the
big pot. Using Zaterain's Pro Boil as the spice, we cooked up a batch of Low Country Boil of red potatoes, kielbasa, corn, and shrimp and dumped it on
the butcher paper covered tables for the 15 hungry eaters. These shots are at
the end of the meal as the piles of food have pretty much disappeared..

Have a great day and thanks for stopping by Almost Heaven South.The meal was a hit and we enjoyed spending time with our club friends.

Now that sounds like a great gathering and awesome meal.
ReplyDeleteAs nice as those places are those prices are out of our budget.
Pretty much out of ours as well, but they offered a much less $35/night for the rally
DeleteDefinitely not in my budget. We'd be stretching it for the $35 a night but look at those views of the river. And your boil is making my mouth water.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful spot. Only the coaches get the river side spots????? ;)
ReplyDeleteWhat a gorgeous spot!
ReplyDeleteLarry, Nice RV Park! Good looking Low Country Boil too! All I'd need is Tabasco... I haven't heard. Will we see ya'll at the wine tasting tomorrow? Take Care, Big Daddy Dave
ReplyDeleteSorry you missed the entire rally --but glad you got there on Sunday. I'm sure all of your friends appreciated that awesome dinner... Sounds TERRIFIC...
ReplyDeleteThat is a gorgeous RV park... Love the location on the river... BEAUTIFUL.
Hugs,

I've always wanted to do a big low country boil - along with cold beer I would be a happy camper! Love those RV sites - pretty campgrounds - especially the first one!
ReplyDeleteLooks like a pretty fancy rv park!
ReplyDeleteThe RV park on the river looks lovely. Glad you at least got to enjoy the low country boil - sounds delicious!
ReplyDeleteI'm sure your low country boil was delicious Larry. Lucky campers. Great park.
ReplyDeleteI know why you would be welcomed…besides your great personality, it is the good food you prepare.
ReplyDeleteYou are having an excellent late spring coach tour, Larry! The French Broad River is indeed very pretty, and it would be wonderful to be parked right next to it.
ReplyDeleteWow, that looks like fun. And you have such a lovely spot right on the river. What a great way to travel.
ReplyDeleteI love these upscale RV parks you find, some great sites. Hope you all are having a great Memorial day weekend!
