Riverside Casino & Golf Resort is located in Riverside, Iowa, about 12 miles south of Iowa City. Probably the best thing about it for RVers is that it has no policy on overnight camping in its parking lot. Sash and I parked our toy hauler there for 16 nights, and wasn’t bothered by casino...
Late afternoon winds finally picked up, bringing with it a 15-degree (F) temperature drop from the low-90s that had lingered for much of the day. A dark grey loomed to the west. The smell of rain could just barely be detected following behind the flocks of ducks pushing east towards Nebraska. Our trailer sat...
As of this writing it’s been 93 days since Sash and I last spent an evening in an RV Park. As full time RVers, we’ve made a commitment to not stay in them, and instead stay for free on BLM lands, National Forest lands, or other free, public areas. That is, if we can...
The last few reviews of Cabela’s in Lone Tree, Colorado posted on FreeCampSites.net seemed to reflect the same sentiment across the greater Denver metro area, that RVing in the Mile High City is not welcome… Though they have no problem with overnight parking, the city council of money grubbing politicians do not allow overnight...
There is a view area (view point) located along US-40 in Utah, overlooking Starvation Reservoir. The view area lies just on the east side of the bridge that crosses the reservoir. On the other side of the highway is an RV Park (Camperworld). The view area is sparsely visited, even by local law enforcement...
As far as Walmarts go for overnight RV parking, the location at 949 W Grasslands Drive in American Fork, UT is not really that ideal, yet seems to be rather friendly towards letting you stay for more than a day. We pulled into the shopping center where this Walmart is located and found it...
Some rest areas are busy, some are not. Juniper Rest Area along I-84 in southern Idaho is pretty busy. Connecting Salt Lake City, UT with Boise, ID, the rest area is largely frequented by trucks and RVs, not so much passenger vehicles. Try to get here before sundown if you want to find some...
Shoshone Falls Road is a plot of land on the north side of the Snake River, north of Twin Falls, ID. It rests on the eastern side of the intersection with US-93. When entering this area, there is actually a BLM sign with the name, “Snake River Rim Recreation Area”, but I’ve not been...
Sawtooth National Recreation Area is a dream-come-true for Spring-time RV boondockers. Late April to early May is when the landscape comes alive with green foliage and spring blooms, while the Big Wood River fills up with snow melt from nearby mountaintops. There are dozens of forest roads that make up the Sawtooth National Recreation...
There are not many places to boondock for free in the greater Boise, Idaho area. In fact, I couldn’t find any that offered free boondocking, relative safety and quiet, and usable Verizon 4G coverage. But I did find this place. Located in Meridian, along a dead end street (corner of N. Vicenza Way &...
