What's your favorite camping spot?

We all have one. So what is yours?
Since camping season finally started up here a couple weeks ago, I was able to get around to doing some of it this past weekend.
My favorite spot is non-designated and in the Spotted Bear Ranger District of the Flathead National Forest, about 50 miles south of Hungry Horse MT and not too far from the Bob Marshall Wilderness. From my house, it takes me about 2 hours to get here.
The best spot around with 3 dogs. 360 degree views of the range atop Kah Mountain.
The sunsets are killer here too!

It's illegal to do so now, but the rim of Crater Lake has the best view to wake up to in the morning. Plus, you can see the aurora borealis on a good night with a geomagnetic storm.
Hard to beat it.

For all around camping, Pismo Beach, CA. Beautiful place and awesome time on ATVs on the sand dunes overlooking the ocean.

Seriously though, Lake Ouachita near Hot Srings Arkansas is a great place.

Tracy Arm Fjord, on an islet between the North and South Sawyer Glaciers was my best camping trip.

Many Glacier campground in Glacier NP. It's surrounded by outstanding trailheads, has tons of wildlife, and you can make a short walk to the store and get huckleberry ice cream.

I'm so jealous of you guys that live in beautiful areas like this and get to have so many camping options.
There is nothing within 8 hours of south La that excites me enough to make me want to go camping, so I've given up on the idea of it for the most part.

I'm heading to GNP end of July. Camping around the Many Glacier area, I'm pumped.

Mogollon Rim near Payson, AZ.
2 hours from our house. It's our go to camping spot because it's close by, the sites are huge and don't cost anything. And many times you can get a spot right on the rim with some amazing views. There is also a lake up there not far from where we camp at.

Be honest, this thread was started 100% because you wanted to show off your pics and not because you are interested in our campsites.

Pioneer Mountains have some similar spots. Easy drive from Missoula. We went one July 4 and were the only people we saw, for a 4 day backpacking trip. We parked my truck camper at a designated national forest camping spot at trailhead for basecamp. I love Glacier Backcountry but I like being totally alone. Glacier's bc experience is definitely still amazing, especially if you do 8+ days during a less than busy time. But I like being off anyone else's schedule for sites. The griz freak out my wife too, so places like pioneers are an easier sell.
I have an Alpacka packraft I'm taking in the Bob Marshall, so she will not be joining. I have a feeling I'll have some new favorite spots there.

Awesome dude. My camping in tents was two months ago. Too damn hot now in Louisiana.

Mouth of the Gualala River. Within walking distance you have a beautiful north coast river and a dandy beach. There's no cell phone reception (key). And you sleep in the Redwoods.

Thome Park in South Texas where the Arroyo Colorado River meets the Laguna Madre. Great place to fish/hunt and explore.
