Useful camping apps

[jrle546 10]

I am posing a question to all on here.  What useful apps are you using or apps that you have tried and have not been so good.

Allstays RV Campgrounds, Ultimate US Public Campground, Allstays RV Dump, Campendium.  There are a bunch of Allstays Apps, depends on how you camp.

Looking for just more info on other then national parks.  At the moment we are using the Recreation.gov app which is very good but only does federal lands and national parks.

We are using RVParky alot right now.  It has been good for us so far

So many things I use are online or on my phone/tablet...so I'll break this down into 3 parts:

1) My favorite "online - web based" roadtrip/camping planning tool:

RV Trip Wizard is an Online tool I used for planning my trip to/from Hohenwald...it's great. - https://www.rvtripwizard.com/ 

2) Apps my Phone/Tablet Tools for Finding and Reserving Campsites:

Allstays Camp & RV - also a good lookup tool for campgrounds - https://www.allstays.com/
Campendium - For reviews of campgrounds  - https://www.campendium.com/
The Ultimate US Campground App -  For locating boondocking sites.=   http://www.ultimatecampgrounds.com/
All Trails - for finding localized hiking info - https://www.alltrails.com/
Recreation.Gov - for doing many of the reservations in Nat'l forests, and parks - https://www.recreation.gov/
Harvest Hosts App - for one night stays at wineries, farms, etc. - https://harvesthosts.com/
RV LIfe - All round app I use as a portal into reviews and new campground info. - http://rvlife.com/

3) Seeing the actual campground sites:

I've found so far that I use several apps when planning a long trip.  Some are great for finding "camping" others are good for planning the drive.

In addition, there are resources we use that help us plan by showing actual campsites as photo's or drive through's including these three sites:

Campsite Photo's - https://www.campsitephotos.com/  
Campground Views :  https://www.campgroundviews.com/ - featuring drive throughs of a campground in 360 deg format so you can look around.
The Dyrt - a great site for what's good about a specific campground:  https://thedyrt.com/

Hope that helps...

Second Campendium. Use that quite a bit. Reserve America is used as the booking system for many state parks. We normally just use the web site but they also have an app. It is called RA camping.
