COFLTravler Posted June 30, 2021 Report Share Posted June 30, 2021 I've seen a few folks mention they have used and stayed at various HH locations.....anyone had a problem with showing up with an HDT? I imagine just like RV parks, calling ahead and letting the host know of our rigs is best?

HERO Maker Posted June 30, 2021 Report Share Posted June 30, 2021 Do a google map sat view to check out the layout, as you should normally do for any stopover or stay. Talk with the host in advance of booking it. Quote Rocky & Sheri Rhoades '01 Volvo 770 2016 DRV Mobile Suites, HoustonHERO Makers Ministry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trimster Posted June 30, 2021 Report Share Posted June 30, 2021 Ditto. Also read the comments by others . Found one that said long rigs okay, but the comments said otherwise. Seems some of the HH don't understand what long is.

lappir Posted June 30, 2021 Report Share Posted June 30, 2021 When I pulled into the current spot in North Dakota the person on duty mentions she didn't know I'd be coming in with a Semi. I had told the person I spoke with on the phone I had a "Big Rig" with a big truck a car and motorcycle with me and I needed at least 70 feet of space. She said no problem. Sometimes it's just the lack of communication on the part of the parks.

Star Dreamer Posted July 1, 2021 Report Share Posted July 1, 2021 We have used Harvest Hosts locations quite frequently with our HDT. I do verify that they have a large parking area and if it is a grassy area, I look for alternate locations in case it rains. This location was on grass but due to possible heavy rains coming in that night, they asked if I could park on some nearby concrete. I said I would be happy to and even mentioned if they moved a stand by their volleyball court, I could keep my driving over grass to a minimum when leaving and they moved the stand.

jenandjon Posted July 1, 2021 Report Share Posted July 1, 2021 I haven't had any problems with HH. IT says in the description how long a rig they can accommodate. 99% of the time you can find them on google maps and check it out.

nawaa Posted July 2, 2021 Report Share Posted July 2, 2021 We've stayed at several HH. I always check Google maps, and keep an eye on the weather. I figure most "real" farms and wineries have big trucks helping with the harvest, and we've found a few really neat museums that we never would have known about otherwise - those usually have paved parking lots. I prefer to call or text the Host rather than do the new "button" option, just because I want to explain our size to a real person, and I might need to know NOW if they can accommodate me - I don't always have two or three days to wait for a reply. Overall we've enjoyed having the HH membership in our arsenal. Every host has been awesome, we haven't had a bad experience yet.

GlennWest Posted July 2, 2021 Report Share Posted July 2, 2021 I assume all of you that use HH have solar since no electric at these locations.

Most do not have electric, but it is more about your battery juice and inverter size and how long you can go without being plugged in. Most of the HH locations are only for one night so solar doesn't work at night anyway.

I run my generator. I tell them upfront when we make reservations. They will usually put the noise makers all together in one group if there is room.
