OzBoz, if you have never camped out I would suggest a place with hookups. Actually your driveway is the best of places to try things out as someone has already mentioned.
Driving in and out of established private campgrounds is usually easier than backing into state park spots. We love to camp and usually do so in parks be they state or federal or even Corps of Engineers. We also love to travel in our trailer and when on the road it is nice to use KOAs along with other chains like Good Sams. That said, both of these options can be iffy at times. A KOA is not a place to camp for any length of time, in my opinion. We do like them because you usually know what you are getting. We have been burned at a few KOAs but also had the same experiences at some Good Sam places.
