Lake George Escape Campground - Thousand Trails

Unfortunately, we did not have a good experience at the Lake George Escape RV Park. We made reservations three weeks in advance, and were careful to tell the representative that our Fifth Wheel is 13' 4" tall. We were assured that we would not have any issues (when speaking with the person making the reservation and a follow-up call to the campground office), with the interior roads, trees/branches, and the site assigned to us. Our first indication of trouble, was when we followed the campground's website directions from Route 87.... one of the roads had a weight capacity of 5 Tons (we assume that many RVs exceed that weight). Also, just before the campground entrance, is a bridge underpass with no height signs. In order to safely pass under that bridge, we had to travel very slowly on the shoulder, and still were close to hitting our roof air conditioner. When we went to the check in, and mentioned the road weight restriction and underpass, the employees indicated that we were only the first customers to mention the road weight restriction, and the second to mention the underpass height. Neither of these issues were mentioned in their directions. We asked to be taken to see our site, before we drove in with the RV. I asked what height the tree branches were cut to, and the employees did not have an answer. The tree branches that were over the interior road were at height of 10 feet (our estimate). The employees did try to find another site that could accommodate our RV, but the roads to this second site, also had low hanging branches, and the road width was tight. We observed that most of the RVs that were in the campground were significantly lower in height and shorter in length. We were refunded our money, and left through the exit (which also had a low hanging branch that scrapped across our solar panels).
