Camping membership for full timers?

We are starting full timing soon as was wondering what full timers use if they have a membership plan to campgrounds.
We were looking into thousand trails and their various plans

  • Escapees and Passport America, jury is out on Good Sam. We mostly camp in COE, County, State and Fed parks.

    We tried C2C and the parks were never where we wanted to be. In the end we kind of thought of it as having a cabin in the mountains, felt obligated to use our membership(ie go to cabin because we own it).

    You need to develop your own campground style, what you like vs. what you don't like. Then you can decide if a is membership is for you.
  • Perhaps you can ask that your post be moved to the full-time section. :)

    The only ones we used were Escapees RV Club home parks or co-ops and Passport America on occasion but a couple nights a year pays for the program. We're just not into typical RV parks.

    Otherwise we used public parks - national, state, national forest, Corp of Engr. county and city and lost of boondocking on public lands (BLM/national forests).
