Top 100 Camping Destinations in the United States, Pt. 1

Top 100 Camping Destinations in the United States: Part 1
This past week I was researching some blog post ideas and I stumbled across a list of the Top 100 Places to Camp In the United States. I found the list to be very interesting and my curiosity got the best of me. So I thought it would be fun to do some of my own research on each camping destination and over the next few months, provide you with a quick rundown of what most of the campgrounds below have to offer, their amenities, camping rates, when they are open, any attractions nearby and anything else you may want to know.

With Spring Break just about wrapping up for most people, I'm happy to share this list now because I think this list will give you some great ideas for potential summer vacation camping destinations. For all of you avid RV campers out there, how many places that are on the Top 100 List have you visited? What did you think of them and would you recommend the destinations you visited to others? Please share below!
