Of course, one can always do the boon docking thing and find really nice areas that are off the grid and used by fewer people. Also using apps like Allstays and going online to check out free camp locations, like https://freecampsites.net
Right on!
Do away with the need for full hookups and a whole new camping world opens up - often without reservations even in these times.
We spent 8 days before and after Thanksgiving drycamping right here in California. The first few days we made last minute drycamping reservations in a campground that was otherwise fully booked in their crowded hookup areas, and for the final few days we made no reservations for drycamping in a beautiful beach area.
We find that drycamping sites are usually more isolated, quiet, natural, and pleasing to the eyes than hookup sites. We've only ever found one campground (here in CA, BTW) in which, even though the sites had partial water/electric hookups, each site was still scattered among the hills, quiet, and separated well away from others. It was a very unusual campground setup.
I guess we don't understand the thinking behind owning a self-contained RV but being reluctant to use it that way.
