There are many places to stay free, but they do not have any electrical power. You could try a few website - these are sites I have found from reading forums, or other campers talked about. Some of these do have power. Allstays.com, free campgrounds.com , freecampsites.net, USCAmpgrounds.info. Also, there are many Corp of Engineer and US forestry parks that have electricity and lower rates. You can even get a senior discount if you are 60 or over by purchasing a card for a 1 time $10 fee. Another option would be to join Passport America. Cost is $44 annually, but you receive 50% off at campgrounds. They have an online directory and webpage. You could check what campgrounds would be where you are going to travel to see if it would be worth joining for you. We use it alot.
