If you want something like Thousand Trails go online & buy from someone wanting out of theirs, it'll save lots of $$. We looked at a few of the TT campgrounds before retirement & found them to be a bit run down with way too many permanent residents, usually not allowed, to be storing their junk at them. For what they charge for a membership they should ALL be pristine. Just my .02.
Good Sams is probably the most popular. It gets you 10% off at any particpating campgrounds & discounts on RV goodies at Camp World.
KOA is typically more expensive than others, but if you're traveling with kids several have entertainment for them. Their membership will get you 10% til you've stayed a few times then you'll have built up points for free stays & upgraded to VIP status getting 15% off & building points faster.
Passport America gets you 50% off on participating campgrounds, but check out their blackout dates closely, some have only a few days mid week available, typically no holidays or weekends. We cancelled after the 1st year due to the only days available were the ones that didn't end in Y, it seemed to us.
There are several apps available for RV camping, free or not. Also read the reviews closely, some folks can't be pleased no matter what & those are usually the ones that post reviews most often. Have read reviews for VERY nice parks that gave them 1 star because they didn't have "free dog poop bags" or "the free WiFi was weak" in both cases if you need either bring them with you.
