;Use Google Maps to locate RV parks, check the park website for weekly, monthly, and seasonal rates

== Precautions ==
:For your first times, be sure to land at the site during daylight. It makes parking and setup much easier. This is also helpful as many camp offices close early.
::This doesn’t apply to boondocking
:Be mindful of the wind before you start towing
