Discover Where To Camp
Authentic camping guides and resources for America’s public lands
Did you know that National Parks only make up 12% of America’s public land?
National Parks are a must for campers! But you shouldn’t have to stress about permits and reservations during peak camping seasons…
That’s why we create camping guides and resources to show you the other 88% of public lands where camping is often free, or low-cost, and has more chances to escape the crowds, like National Forests, Wilderness Areas, BLM Lands, and State Parks.

About me
My name is Jeremy, and I’ve camped a lot over the years through America’s incredible network of public lands. And through my exploration, I’ve learned that some of the best camping can be had outside of National Parks, such as places like National Forests, BLM land, Wilderness Areas, State Parks, and dozens of other types of public lands.
This site was created to share my camping knowledge through hand-written guides and resources to teach you how to discover and enjoy some of the best camping in our public lands (and yes, I still include National Parks!).
Everything on this site based on first-hand experiences in the great outdoors. No AI generated content.
