There is an ALLSTAYS app you can add to your cell to find military campgrounds and their eligibility for stays. You can also at home use the site to do the same. I've used it while crossing the U.S. a couple times.
Also any NG/Reserve base would let you know before hand that a UTA weekend is coming up thus avoiding being bumped from those bases.
I didn't think this was true, but we discovered that at some active base CG's there are, at times, some permanent or extended stay military members who begin to think they have more rights than those of us that just stay for a few days. Just need to shrug your shoulder and enjoy your stay in spit of them. Just remember they are required to follow the same rules as you are.
Some CG's have host campers (funding available) that ensure the rules are observed as well as providing any help you need while there. Overall we enjoyed our stays at military base campgrounds and enjoy the security, and conveniences of an exchange, commissary, package store, etc.
