We are traveling with no schedule. Example, today we setup for a couple of days and then looked at the map to determine where we go next. Then we consulted WOODALL'S and RVPARKREVIEWS.com to find a park.

Of course all parks are not in either.

What do those on the list use to find a park when you have not been in an area?

We are new at this RV game so would appreciate any input.

Thanks
CCC and Pat

We use Passport America parks a lot.  We also use the list of Walmarts - available through the Discovery Owners website.

We use the Trailer Life Campground Navigator program. Just plug in a destination and the program will show you all the listed TL campgrounds in the area.

Another thing you can do is just plug in a city in Google maps with the search term "campgrounds near XXXXX"

Good luck,

I also use Passport America when possible (50% discount). I first go to the PA website, find PA parks in the area where I want to be, then cross check those parks on RVParkReviews.com to make sure that the park is a nice place. Sometimes there's no nice PA parks, I then spend the extra money on a decent place. I use RVParkReviews.com alot.

I will find a city along the way and do a google search "campgrounds ABC City" and usually get a list of several nearby. Often the RV Parks Review.com will be one of the first to popup showing nearby campgrounds. Another way I search is on www.bing.com/maps.com . Put in the city and state and look in the left hand column for the business list, select more, travel, Campgrounds & RV Resorts. A list of campgrounds will pop up showing the distance from the city. Also shows the ratings for the campground so you can eliminate the low rated easily.

That Bing.com/maps is neat, thanks for the tip.

Bear ,

The BING referral appears that it will be a big help as CG' that have no ad in Woodall's, not in Passport, nor reviewed by rvparkreives, show up.

Neat.

Thanks,
