The Best Guide to Free and Inexpensive Campgrounds,
This review is from: Don Wright's Guide to Free Campgrounds (Guide to Free Campgrounds West) (Paperback)
...I am very much involved in locating free and low cost camping opportunities. Don Wright's Guide to Free Campgrounds, both the Western and Eastern edtions, are by far the most comprehensive guides to where to find free and low-cost campgrounds, whether the camper is traveling with an RV or pitching a tent. These days, a campsite in a commercial campground will typically run from about $20 to $35 a night (and even higher in popular tourist areas), which can severely impact a camper's wallet. So finding low-cost and even free places to stay is often important to keeping the cost of camping to a minimum. Anyone who camps more than two-to three weeks a year and is on a budget should easily save the price of this book in campsite fees. Campers who camp a lot will benefit even more.

Great Books!,
By Amanda M. Collier (Salt Lake City, UT United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Don Wright's Guide to Free Campgrounds (Guide to Free Campgrounds West) (Paperback)
Best books on the planet if you are going camping! I spent 2 1/2 months on the road through 48 states and I would have never been able to do it without them (this one and his eastern edition). A must have for the low-budget traveler who wants a surefire way to find a campsite when you need one. Excellent directions and although some of the descriptions are a bit misleading, it is very easy to see where they came from. Warning: Some of the campsites are no longer usable! We found a couple that have been flooded or overrun with cows (yes, cows).

Where west is east,

This review is from: Don Wright's Guide to Free Campgrounds (Guide to Free Campgrounds West) (Paperback)
Readers selecting the Western Edition should know that Minnesota, Iowa, Missouri, Arkansas and Louisiana are actually included in the Eastern Edition and not included in the West. I suspect this was done to make the size of the two volumes roughly equal, but the tag on the cover is misleading.
Otherwise both east and west are excellent. For those looking to camp off the beaten path while, at the same time, saving a few dollars these guides are great. The numbered map locations are great for the traveler when it comes to answering the question: "Where can we camp close by?" We've used these books for years and, were it not for the placement of some west-of-the Mississippi- states in the Eastern Edition, I'd give it 5 stars.
