Cripple Creek, Co (Can I list that 2 or 3 more times?) St. Louis (Casino Queen RV Park) over the 4th of July weekend. Brookings, OR (gotta be right on the water). Too many places to mention in OR and WA along the coast (Anacortez, WA quickly comes to mind). Dry camped along the Pacific Ocean in Ventura, CA Everywhere in Yellowstone in the Spring or Fall. Destin, FL (I think it was the Holiday Travel Park). Step out your door and onto the sands of the beach (not kidding, your nose is ON THE BEACH). Coronado, CA again a beach campsite with much to do in the surrounding areas. Las Vegas when it's not a million degrees. Not sure about a week, but 3-5 days at the Wisconsin Dells, WI. Salt Lake City over the Christmas holidays. Stay at the KOA. OOPS! 5?
