We stayed at 2 Harvest Hosts places on our trip to Maine. The first was in Southington,Conneticut. It was a decent place to park. HH ask that you spend $20 at the establishments. We went to a Mexican restaurant that was really good so you do get something for your $20. Second stop was in Boothbay, Maine and we stayed at brewery so it was easy to spend $20 on beer. Boothbay was really charming town and the brewery was great they even let us use a 15amp outlet. There is a fee to join HH but I think if you use it then it will pay for itself.

What is the fee? I assume annual?

Just checked and it looks like it went up to $99 I think they were running a special when i got mine and it was $67 but I think it was regularly $79. We are just evaluating to see if is worth it because you really need to use it to get any value. We stayed twice so I think we would need to use it 4 or 5 times for it to pay off. You do get to stay at some unique venues but you are essentially boondocking.

They bought out BoondockersWelcome also. I am (or was) a member of BW, as a host, but the rules and regs were getting to be an issue, and I did have some guests that I would prefer not come back.

So I have de-activated my host location there.

But, if any r-pod peeps need a place to stay for a night or two in the Texas Panhandle, just holler! I have 30 amp shore power and water.
