Allstays Camp & RV<\/p><\/div>\n

I\u2019ve traveled thousands upon thousands of miles doing travel stories, and a GPS was almost always part of my gear. If you want to get from point A to point B, it\u2019s hard to beat.<\/p>\n

Problems arise however when point B needs to be a certain type of campground. GPS fail.\u00a0 Problems also arise when B is located on a road with an 11\u2019 height limit, and you\u2019re driving a 12\u2019 high RV. GPS fail. Or maybe you just want the GPS to find you a place where you can park your RV a sleep for a while. GPS fail.<\/p>\n

Luckily, Allstays LLC has come out with a range of apps that help you solve those problems while on the road. Their premier app is called Allstays Camp & RV<\/a>. It will not only solve those problems above, but a host of others as well.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>It lists over 24,000 campgrounds in the US and Canada; including private, federal, state, city and county. A special section includes all major campground chains. A great feature is the listing of Walmarts \u2013 categorized as those who may permit overnight parking and those that don\u2019t.<\/p>\n

For each camping area, the app stores phone number & camp information which can be reviewed even offline. While online, you\u2019ll also get the website, directions, reviews and images.<\/p>\n

\"Allstays<\/a>When it comes to picking a campground, you can be as specific as you want.\u00a0 Want only campgrounds that offer showers, firewood and Wi-Fi? You can set those parameters.<\/p>\n

Special stores are also listed that are helpful to RV\u2019ers and campers such as Cabelas, Camping World, Costco, REI, Sam\u2019s and more. You\u2019ll also find multiple listings for all the major truck stop chains like Flying J, Pilot and TA Travel Center. Rest stops are listed by their geographical direction: northbound, eastbound, etc.<\/p>\n

Low clearances are always an issue when driving a large vehicle and these are nicely broken down by 1\u2019 increments, starting at 7\u2019 and going up to 15\u2019.<\/p>\n
