Looking for recommendations for an online road trip planner. Would like it to be interactive, have campground locations, maybe local tourist sites listed. Thank you

Welcome to your frustrations.Lower your expectations with just having a complete lists of active campsites. Google search of the vicinity is still the best and most complete in this regard.I stopped looking more than a year ago, so there might be better ones by now.Even wrote GS about their trip planning then being updated. Have not checked lately but read from a thread here it is still work in progress and has not improved much.

I used RV Trip Wizard for our 11,000 mile trip last fall with no real complaints. It wasn't perfect, but it was pretty great. I'd use them again for our next big trip.

We use RVParky. It has been very helpful and is pretty easy to use. We had 3 trips planned but thanks to the Covid-19 had to cancel all 3.

I hate to say this, but such is no longer available. My killer criteria was that the package had to be stand alone and not need internet access to do anything when underway. SA and S&T were the last. I have tried RV Wizard demo on more than a few occasions because I really wanted it to work. I could never get it to do the whole plan for both EOD and Fuel. I just hit it again and it is now not an active online demo. Maybe I can do better. Just spent too long trying again. If you want canned trips, I guess this is OK, but it is not how we travel. It so lacking of the essentials that I won't bother with buying a year. There is another that is free to use but again, as a web app, you better be sure you have your data plan full charged or you will burn it down. It does do everything we need and doesn't steer you to specific campgrounds. It runs on Google Maps, but I haven't been able to get GM to collect Lat/Lon from a GPS. Oh Well Matt
