Web ID: 16836727Excellent Resource
This camping travel guide offers useful tips on the staying at or near National Parks and Recreational Areas. It is divided by region. In Park campgrounds are listed first, then public and private out of Park campgrounds are listed. The authors take the time to describe the amenities and special features for each campground. The parks themselves also get descriptors. I found the special features and hiking trail guides most useful, as the Puglisis share the best times of day and year to visit the parks and use the trails. These authors also give info on bugs and when they are active and feasting on human flesh - much appreciated! Five stars for this fantastic travel guide. If you like to camp or visit National Parks, but especially if you like to do both at the same time, then this guide is for you. It is chock full of good information, great observations, and fantastic suggestions. My thanks to Sourcebooks via NetGalley for this ARC. All opinions are my own and offered without recompense. #WhereShouldWeCampNextNationalParks #StephaniePuglisi #JeremyPuglisi #NetGalley #IfCatsCouldRead #RescuedIsMyFavoriteBreed #Bookstagram #Catstagram #BooksAndCats #CatsAndBooks #KindlesAllTheWayDown

So Disappointed
I received the new book as a gift. My family has tent camped, pop up, travel trailer, Class C and A, and currently a diesel bus. We love the family experience, now with our grand kiddos. I am a 50 year resident of New Mexico and travel a lot. I was initially excited to get into the camp book, but after my oldest grandson and I checked out the author’s choices for our home state, I was blown away. So sad that they suggested those campsites. 1. Oliver Lee, Alamogordo. Yuck: dirt, sand and at best primitive. 2. Carlsbad KOA: Old, rundown, mostly local oil field permanent trailers. 3. Abq. KOA on interstate: way overpriced, small spaces, touristy. 4. Elephant Butte Lake Resort : Extremely pricey, pool is often closed and sites are too close. No mention of the best campsite, Isleta Lakes: fishing, huge sites, excellent bath/shower facilities. Elephant Butte State Park: excellent choices, roomy, family friendly, great facilities for tents or Class A, state park priced. I feel that the authors may have mentioned some campsites as possibly trade for services. Ex.: many KOAs that are really rundown and obsolete. Poor details, no pricing, etc. I wonder if the authors have visited any of their Best in State, or maybe took other peoples suggestions. Not a fan of this book, file 13.

Great Resource!
A comprehensive guide to where to camp (both tent and RV sites) when visiting the national parks. This was particularly helpful as it explains how to work the reservation sites (which can be cumbersome) with a few tips and tricks on how to find the best sites with the amenities you need. There are both public and private sites with suggestions on best times to go for each park. Bonus points for including information on Bark Ranger locations (my pup loves this). Each park mentions several campgrounds within and outside of the park, a short description, website where available, site type, and a few extras (where to get homemade blueberry pies). Incredibly helpful for those planning trips to these parks (which should be everyone!).
