- Campgrounds rvnetlinx Our website history began a few years ago when we were looking for RV-specific information on the internet. We spent countless hours on the web, looking at site after site, for information related to the RVing lifestyle. We eventually did find it, but it was very sporadic; a little bit here, a little bit there. We just couldn't find one site that was somewhat comprehensive for RV information. So we decided to combine the best of what we've found and set up a site that would contain as comprehensive a list of RV-related links that we could get. Thus, rvNetLinx was born!

- Free Campgrounds RVers have different camping needs at different times. Our mission is not to promote free places to spend a night at the expense of RV parks or public campgrounds. We acknowledge, however, that there are times when a free stay makes sense — when an RVer is too tired to go on, and/or there is no official campground nearby — or when a small town offers a complimentary stay in its city park. There are also many "boondocking" sites throughout the USA, often in the desert or in out-of-the-way area where RVers may stay for free. Some government agencies — the U.S. Forest Service and Bureau of Land Management, to name two, still offer free camping in some areas they administer.
