Camps are basically either public or private. The camps are funded with public dollars from their taxes and therefore have spent some money to use. Private camps often have as much money as they have to charge more money to make ends meet. Due to the inconsistency of private land do not tell us much about them.

Anyone Who knows where to Camp heard of KOA (Kampgrounds of America). They are located in the U.S. and are friendly and reliable places. That almost always have the amenities you will not find in most camps. I was pleasantly surprised that a cold morning in a place that long forgotten, to find toilet seats with heating facilities KOA!

If the public places, we rely on the federal basis, you will find very consistent. Some consider that a plus, others a minus. You'll find most of the camps are overcrowded federal and are very rigid. They are overcrowded, because most of them are the most spectacular sites such as "Yellowstone" and are more rigid by necessity to control the crowd. Unfortunately, this rigidity extends to the less crowded federal facilities as well.

My personal tastes run more to the State facilities. They are not as rigid as the feds and are usually more friendly.
On the down side that may not always get what you expected. But there again is one reason why they prefer them.

With very few exceptions, states have a variety of beautiful parks with picturesque settings. By choosing a state for the field, the criteria down to a choice of weather really, because all have sites that will give you that once in a life experience.

In general the most scenic parks are located in the northern regions. As one travels south, the land becomes flatter. Do you want more landscape or easier travel? Even in a southern state like Alabama, the most beautiful landscape in the northern part of the state, while the southern half is much easier to traverse.

Where never leaves, to choose between good and bad.The northern areas are colder and more mountainous. The south is warmer, flatter, and has more bugs. Looking for a family oriented site, or are looking for a place to get away from children? That becomes a more prominent issue in a state like Florida, which has so many retirees. Make sure you know the good and bad points of a region so you can make an informed decision as to where to go.
