We are planning a trip down the east coast and possibly across the southern states and back up to the North Dakota area. We will be tent camping and wondering if anyone can recommend some good tenting campgrounds? We may go to other areas (ie western and central states) as my husband has nine months off and so we have the time to check out wherever we take a fancy to!
most military campgrounds have space dedicated for tent campers since most of the older campgrounds started out as tenting grounds and have grown.
Good luck. Your trip sounds like it will be a blast, keep us informed.

When traveling around the country we use KOA a lot when there are no military campgrounds in the area. We have noticed that most of them have very nice areas for tenters. If you start using them you can join their network and receive a 10% discount. After 12 uses you will be moved up to a gold card and be given a 15% discount. I will list their web page below.
I agree with the KOA suggestion, they are really nice.
If you decide to go the military campground route be sure to let them know you will be tenting it. Even though many campgrounds offer tent these sites are less than well maintained but if you let them know that you will be in a tent they may just clean and prepare your site for tent use.
