Advice on boondocking [i.e. parking an RV anywhere outside a designated RV park]

Neighborhoods: The key is to find neighborhoods in which a large vehicle with out-of-state plates will not attract attention and to not overstay your welcome. 

Harvest hosts - annual fee of $99. Of the campers we met who had stayed with a Harvest Host, the reviews were positive. The sites are often not scenic — just the parking lot. 

General camping apps, such as The Dyrt , Freecampsites, or Campendium, are great for identifying all kinds of potential campsites — public, private, designated, or dispersed, fee or free.

HipCamp is another app that doesn't focus on free camping, but inexpensive options. Like Airbnb, it connects property owners willing to share their turf with campers.

People: Park rangers are your friends. They can tell you where to camp, and how long you can camp. Visitor information greeters are gold.
