Where to park the Airstream

148 places to spend the night on US public land, in one map and one list — 36 off-grid sites where the view is the whole point, 36 full-hookup sites with power, water and a dump, and 76 free first-come boondocking spots out in the national forests and BLM country. Filter by what tonight calls for, across 28 states.

Big Views 36

Off-grid, in the national parks & forests Recreation.gov

No hookups — just a real site you can tow into, deep in a national park or forest, where the view out the window is the whole reason you came. Bring water, run on battery and solar.

Full Hookups 36

Powered, watered, dump on site Recreation.gov

Electric or full hookups with a dump station and room for the rig — the comfortable, serviced overnight stops for when you want to top up the batteries, fill the fresh tank, and empty the grays.

Boondocking 76

Free, first-come, off the grid Community data

Free dispersed camping on national forest and BLM land — no hookups, no reservations, no fee. Community-mapped from OpenStreetMap, so treat each as a lead to verify, not a booking: confirm the access road, current rules, and that the spot still exists before you commit the rig.

Every site below, plotted by type — Big Views, Full Hookups, Boondocking. Filter with the chips above; the map follows. Boondocking pins are community-mapped and unverified.

Big Views and Full Hookups are hand-picked from public Recreation.gov (RIDB) data — rated 4.5★+, road-accessible to a trailer, no tent-only or hike-in sites. Boondocking sites are community-mapped from OpenStreetMap (ODbL) and are unverified: no reservations, and access, road condition and current rules change — always confirm before you go. Ratings, prices, length limits and availability change too; confirm on each facility's page. Independent reference, not affiliated with Recreation.gov.
