From Yachting To RVing

just got an app that I know nothing about but might work.

To Go RV companion.

We rely on Ultimate Public Campgrounds.

As long as you have cell coverage more than enough information is right at your fingertips. Offline trip planning is not so easy. Stand alone software like MS Streets & Trips is no longer available. Lots of us cling to our 2013 version of S&Ts.

The more extensive you trip the more you will need to download if you want to plan & don't have coverage where you plan to go.

One of the features I like about RV Trip Wizard is that they link directly to RVParkReviews, which has reviews and a link to the park's web site.

We use many apps, but the primary ones are rvparkreviews.com and google maps. Go to Oklahoma - then in the search bar ask for rvparks and campgrounds near Tulsa OK. A listing should come up as well as pinpoints on the map. You can click on them for more information and connections to the website, if the park has one. Then you can use satelite view to see park overhead and streetview to be right on the road.

Moved from General RVing for more replies.

4x on the Google search. Usually any given campground has some google reviews attached. These give me a pretty good idea what to expect. Then I always swing by RVparkreviews.com to see if it has recent reviews about the park. Passport America has a good listings book and is a great value. I used it 12 times last year and enjoyed significant savings. There are a some restrictions, mostly days of the week that the pass can be used, but with a little planning the restrictions are not a big deal. Again a great value. KOA has a great book and web site too. Like Passport America, is a membership fee, but it always seems to pay for its self. We always seem to end up getting a couple of free nights stay each year. Be sure to check out the state parks in the areas you are planning to stop in too. They are usually diamonds in the rough.

google earth gives a good look at a campground also.
MS streets and trips also lists campgrounds if you can find a copy

Very few new campgrounds are being built. A printed guide works good when there is no cell service or WiFi.

I always found Good Sams camping guide very helpful.

When we were cruisers up until a few years ago when we got back to RVing, we would use ActiveCaptain whenever we were looking for up-to-date information on a course or place to drop anchor or tie up. Now that we are back on the road we have switched from the books we used 10 years ago to phone and laptop applications. One of my favorites is RVParky but as others have pointed out, there are any number of them.
