It comes down to picking your own site one way or another. Sometimes you could drive the grounds and pick one. Sometimes I'm too lazy for that for a one nighter. Recently I stayed at a public campground I had not been to before. I told them I was a newbie and asked for a nice site (without really caring). I got a dusty small interior site with one dead bush as the only plant. Plus I was bunched up with a group of other campers where much of the place was vacant. Hey it was just a night, and if I had really cared I would have scouted it first. But I did come away with a map and ideas for much better sites next time.
