Camping season is upon us. ForestCamping.com may help you find your spot among the trees, birds and bees.
What's hot: The site is researched by a husband-and-wife team who say they have visited most of the 168 national forests listed. You'll get just the facts: how many RV and campsites the campground has, whether they have flush toilets, campground elevation, directions, etc. It has a searchable database.
What's not: It's not comprehensive (e.g., no listings for Alaska and Kansas) and it's unsophisticated. More campgrounds are mentioned in the Western states. Photos don't accompany the listings, so you have to click through to different pages to see them.
