RV/Motorhome Parks/Campgrounds

What is the most detailed on line information site for finding a campground/motorhome park.
I would prefer a map system, where you go to the state and then route, then choose campground. Should detail the facility and layout if possible.

Another vote for rvparkreviews.com. It seems to have the largest selection of reviewed campgrounds, a usable search function, a mostly usable map selection tool, and mostly accurate summary of campsite amenities. It's really my first go-to source for campground information.

One caution, though: I've found that there's something of an art form in extracting relevant information from the reviews. The ratings can get badly skewed in either direction. Downward bias seems to arise from postings by perennial grumps who slam a campground because of some real or imagined offense. For me, the most common source of upward bias arises from reviewers who value campground amenities (such as those found at "RV resorts") over a quiet and peaceful campground experience. Your preferences may vary, obviously, so you'll need to be discerning.

I actually find that trip-planning, with a ridiculous amount of online research and evaluation, is quite an enjoyable experience in itself. Good luck and have fun.
