One of the best accessories we got for RV-in' is a laptop & Verizon mifi. Internet is our #1 source for finding a CG plus you can check up on CG reviews, road conditions, local attractions, etc...
We just about always book all our CGs before leaving home and usually way in advance so we get into the CG we want. We're Thousand Trails members which makes it easy to figure out where we want to stay. For longer trips and no T/T CGs in some areas, it's the internet that finds us a place to stay. Many CGs are going to be fully booked long before you get there and a paper map with CGs on it may not help. We've arrived at a few CGs (privately owned) that we booked without looking up reviews and they've turned out to be total dives.
Sometimes you could be on a route planned well in advance but have to re-book a CG(s) due to unforeseen circumstances like say a wildfire. Having internet on the road really helps. It's not often we can't get either just the internet or just cell phone service - the OR coast can be bad for getting nothing. If we can't get a Verizon signal, DW sets up a hotspot on her phone. Some CGs will have wifi but it can be slower than slow.
I do love paper maps for figuring out routes on longer trips though while DW loves her google maps (which I hate).
