Sandi and I jointly work on maintaining this list as an aid to our fellow forum members. We very much appreciate all the forum members and campground owners who have sent us additional information for the list so we can keep it current. As we do not have the time (or ability) to visit each RV park we receive information about we do depend on members reports.
Please continue to report parks which have added WiFi but are not on the list and those listed but have problems with their systems. We appreciate your help and support in providing this information for our forum members. 
The right hand column shows the WiFi provider or cost to use the system if the service is not free. (Included in campground fees)
Please post here or notify us of any campgrounds you find offering WiFi Internet service that are not included on the list. - Dick A by PM or by email; dick@twoway.net. or answerswillvary by PM or sandi@twoway.net
NOTE:
Each time the list is updated the posts here will be removed along with any other comments from other members in order to keep the thread short and sweet.
Many RV parks WiFi systems are not what I would call "professionally" installed and the signals are not very strong. However, I have really noticed an improvement in park systems during the past two years.
I strongly recommend using a "plug-in" WiFi adapter if using a laptop computer in your motorhome instead of the "built-in" adapter or a PCMCIA card. We use the Linksys WUSB54G adapters on both our computers and always have a usable signal when the built-in adapter in both our laptops and fixed computer will usually not work. There are many past threads in this forums Technology Corner forum about various adapters and external antennas.
We have received numerous PM's mentioning the list has been very helpful to our fellow RV'ers. We appreciate your comments. We really do our best to have the list as accurate as possible.
This list is not sold to anyone and is done strictly for the benefit of RV.NET members.

Thank you all so much for the input. We have been working the past few days on updating the list and this should be available soon.
During the updating process, we delete each of your posts as the information is incorporated into the list.
Information from our members regarding WIFI availability in RV parks across the US, Mexico and Canada is invaluable to the success of this endeavor. Pleae keep it coming.
Thanks again,
answerswillvary and Dick A.

How does that work? Also, if a park has DSL, how does that work with a wireless situation. We do not have a modem activated. Also, when there is a brand name listed after the wi-fi notation, how does that work. Does that mean there is a fee or subscription required? Thank you for your help.
Let me see if I can help. Anyone feel free to correct me if I am wrong.
I think instant phone is for people still using land lines, not very many anymore, since most people carry cell phones.
DSL in a park could mean a few things. You might have to take your computer to a room and plug in with a network cable. It also could mean that their wifi source is DSL. In other words, the park gets DSL, then broadcasts it with antennas around the park.
The brand name is the company providing the wifi service. Usually you'll connect, then when you first get online, you'll be taken to a page where you will have to sign up and enter a credit card number to pay for a day, week, month, whatever.
