Best place to go tent camping right now?

Camping Hotels
Ms. W asked:

I live in northern illinois and i’m just tired of the cold weather. I don’t have a lot of money but I just need to go somewhere warm. Camping is cheaper than staying at a hotel and I do love nature and away from everyday noise. can someone please give me some input. thanks!

    Florida is your best choice or maybe it may be warm enough in southern TN or Georgia…….I can’t wait to go tent camping myself but it is still too cool here in the midwest

    Go tent camping on the beach, if you can make the drive. I took a roadtrip from Iowa to North Carolina with some friends in March years ago and we camped on the beach. It was a campsite on the North Carolina/South Carolina border. I don’t remember the name offhand.

    I’ve also camped on Assateague Island in Maryland/Virginia. Another beautiful place. Camping on the beach is great.

    If you can’t go far, look into somewhere further south. Arkansas has some beautiful outdoor spots. But, really, anywhere south will be fine. It all depends on how far you can go and how much you can spend.

    Play around on GORP’s website a little and see if you can find a place to escape to:
