Help on campground directories
I was somewhat sold by a few saying Good Sams was the best directory for campgrounds to get but then read that the new 2015 does not give ratings on campgrounds that do not pay for ads with Good Sams....

Many printed campground directories are out of date by the time they are published. If you travel the interstates, you may find The Next Exit useful. They also have an online version you can buy.
In my experience no single directory or website has a complete listing of campgrounds and RV parks. I use the following websites to find campgrounds along our route:
RV Park Reviews
Passport America
Allstays
RV Parky
Woodalls
Free Campgrounds
Free campsites
U.S. Campgrounds
National Forest Campground guide
Ultimate Public Campground Project
Corps of Engineers Campgrounds
I prefer the ones that are map based so you can easily find places along your route without knowing the name of a town. Some of them have data sets that you can download to a mapping program or GPS. The POI Factory and Discovery Owners Forum also have a lot of campground data sets and other Points of interest that can be downloaded to mapping programs or GPS.
