The question was asked how we make reservations. The national parks and military campgrounds we had to make at least a month or so out. If we didn't do that we would never get in them. All the others we use the internet. Google Campgrounds and the city where we want to be. Got a good list doing that. We look at the reviews and try to figure out if its good or not. We stayed in one north of Seattle, and one is Sacramento, that we wish we had not stayed in. We were looking more at locations for them then anything. Never felt unsafe, just not the kind of place we wanted to stay in. The cleanest nicest was in Bakersfield, CA.
