When you are going to large attractions, (mt rushmore, grand canyon, etc...)
You mentioned public parks (national in particular) as the large attractions. You are driving great distances, spending a lot of money for your trip and are going to a destination that you really want to be. Why would you not stay in the gorgeous parks themselves to really experience the park?
If your large attraction would be something like Disney World, then that's where you would stay.
If there isn't a RV park at your 'large attraction' then it seems like you'd at least want to stay close by.
This is my opinion and I'm not telling anyone what to do but it just makes sense to me. :)
