Workamping Reviews

We have been full-time RVing and volunteer workamping for about 5 years now. In that time we have had quite a few assignments and talked to our fellow workampers about where they have stayed and how they liked it, what they offered and how the personnel treated the volunteers. We are not going to get into a lot of he said, she said in our reviews just the facts about the assignments and the facilities, hours, duties, etc. Each review will have pictures and videos (if we made any) and you can make up your own mind about the place before you commit.
