We leave for Florida in Oct and come back to Michigan in later May...taking two weeks traveling each way. Usually the night before we leave a campground we sort of figure out where we want to be the next night and check our KOA or Woodall book for campgrounds in the area. Usually like to check them out on the internet. If traveling in southern states I make reservations since a lot of them have seasonal campers so limits the space. Works for us.... I don't like to show up to a campground and then have to turn a 35' Fifth wheel around and leave if no sites. Plus I like to know price.
