welcome and hello I'm Mark Koep with Campgroundviews.com and it is our singular
goal to make your next camping trip absolutely amazing and how we do
this is through the information we provide this information includes videos
one you're watching right now pictures we have over 24,000 of them and our list
of 16,000 campgrounds and RV parks in the United States but yes so what you're
here because you want to discover the top five most amazing yet unknown places
to camp and we're here at number one Jalama beach in California located near
Lompoc this out-of-the-way county run park is incredible if you don't want
hookups you can camp right on the beach if you need hookups they have sites up
on the ridgeline and back off the beach with partial hookup electric and some
with water also there's an easy-to-access dump station and all the
amenities you would possibly want in a place like this getting here it's a
little out of the way via a windy road off of US 1 or CA 1 but once
you get here stunning there's cabins a small restaurant access
immediately to the surf and amazing scenery an interesting fact about this
place is to the north is Vandenberg and to the south is a private ranch for
nearly 50 miles around you now probably 20 miles around you there is nothing and
nobody located on the Central Coast Jalama is our first unknown amazing spot
number two on this list log cabin campground is in Olympic National
Park but not in the Olympic National Park you're familiar with this is a
brand-new or relatively new addition to the National Park Service it used to be
a private location situated on a scenic lake located to the north side of the
National Park open for RV and tent camping it is really easy access in an
RV and it's lesser-known so it tends to not be as crowded and as you can see the
we're looking at a 360 video we actually have a 360 VR tour of this park as you
can see there's sites backing right up to a very beautiful lake there's a dock
here where you can launch kayaks and they rent kayaks and paddleboards
there's a restaurant there's a motel and the great part about it is it's all
accessible right off the road via paved highways into and out of the park run by
a concessionaire they have sites that can accept up to about a 35 foot RV the
location is absolutely amazing and it is a national park campground as noted
that's log cabin and Washington State north of Olympic National Park
definitely one of our top unknown amazing places to camp
number three is a private RV park known as McGregor Lakes RV this park is
located up off of us 2 in northwestern Montana basically located in the middle
of nowhere there's a large RV park cut into the trees surrounded by forests
just across the highway is a Lodge restaurant bar small store and access to
a lake for fishing and boating this is way out of the way very unknown and as
you can see if you have a big RV it's absolutely perfect packed gravel roads
with easy to access pads you can spend the whole summer here or just stop in
overnight definitely a destination to add to your list of places that you
must go it's an unknown and it is amazing McGregor Lakes in Montana
number four on our list Falls Campground this is a US Forest Service campground
technically outside of Dubois Wyoming or Dubois I'm gonna pronounce it wrong so
correct me in the comments hidden near Grand Teton National Park and it has
absolutely enormous sites for both tent and RV campers it's little-known it's
only about 30 miles from Grand Teton and there's a hiking trail from the
campsites down to this viewpoint of a beautiful waterfall in the distance
there scenic mountains and as noted it is a US Forest Service campground so it's
inexpensive and does not tend to be very crowded finally we come to Manistique Lakeshore
Campground again like our log cabin video we have a 360 vr tour of this part
it is brand new located on the northern shore of Lake Michigan in the Upper
Peninsula area paved and concrete parking pads and absolutely stunning
this is a city-owned park located a block from downtown and this is a
working town it's not a tourist town so it's a little bit more authentic very
easy to access with any size RV they have pull through back in options and
tent sites that have to be some of the coolest tent sites you can ever find
They are tucked into the trees they have electrical outlets fire rings and nice
tent pads they seem to be isolated from everybody but yet you're within walking
distance of a restroom laundry and a lake shore and the lake shore is what
makes this park really special from the campground you can walk out onto a sandy
beach or you can take a stroll out along a breakwater that gives you this
majestic view especially at sunset of a red lighthouse that has been converted into a
channel marker located in the state of Michigan on the Upper Peninsula Manistique
Lakeshore is an unknown amazing place to camp
