"(Especially when I read over & over again to make reservations)" I'm glad you posted this as we do three months in the West without ANY reservations BUT we are fully self contained. Yes on a weekend we may call the day before or in the morning to make one for that day. OP do you have a generator? Do you boondock? Is it just the two of you? If yes, yes, yes then this is what works for us with a BIG rig. If we show up Friday afternoon at a USFS CG the chances of a site big enough is nil BUT show up Sunday afternoon or Monday and plenty of empty sites. After 5 days in an area we are usually ready to move on so off to the next destination and to a WalMart (may spend the night) and one day at usually a Private CG to dump, do laundry, and resupply. If it's a long weekend then we make find a site on Wednesday before the crowds.
I like this site the best for finding public CGs as it's on a map.Allstays is almost as good plus it has private CGs and boondocking ideas and there is an APP for it. These two sites will let you go without making reservations if you get away from needing FHU every night. Relax and enjoy your trip without stressing about making reservations months in advance even near National Parks.
