When out on an RV road trip, what do you look for in a campground? Some RVers seek out urban campgrounds with amenities to the max... you know, like full hookups, free Wi-Fi, laundry facilities, grills, propane fill-ups, and more. Other travelers don't mind roughing it in more rural surroundings, especially if it means they can save a bit of money.
