Many thanks for all of the comments/suggestions.
I am retired. Meaning that I don't HAVE to be anywhere at any time.
For now, I will try to "wing it" and hope for the best.

I have camped all around Northern California, summer 2020 was challenging to find spots to camp. Even some of the less popular spots were hard to get into. With COViD many campgrounds required that you register prior to arrival, either by calling or online, some wanted at least a day in advance. Looking for camping spots in 2021 I am seeing less of that but it may change as we get closer to summer. Have fun camping!

I have read all the suggestions/recommendations and agree with all. The one thing I will add is this. RVing will be increasing congested for all of us due to the number of new RVers coming onboard. That coupled with fact their aren't that many new rv parks or campgrounds being developed. It won't matter if your preplanning every nights/weeks stay or just winging it, RV sites will be in higher demand than they ever have before especially during peak vacation time frames. Someone mentioned planning 4 months in advance which is OK is your flexible on location. Were heading to Glacier National Park in July for a week. We obtained a site at West Glacier RV. The KOA there was already full and our reservations were made 8 months in advance. Safe travels and stay safe!!

Have recently tried to get into federal parks, National Parks/Forests, COE. Some of those have been impossible for us to get into until March or April of next year. I just gave up.
Recently found a KOA in Central Calif that was only about 5% occupied. Just drove in without a reservation there. We are currently at Perris Lake State Campground and while they were 80% over the weekend, they are 1% during the week right now. But the dry camping loops have been almost deserted for the last week.
In planning my winter I found that rv parks that we went to 15-20 years ago are either gone completely, or have been converted to timeshares or mobile home communities. It's annoying when I click on a park in the RVLife trip planner only to find that the place is gone or isn't an rv park any more. I have a Thousand Trails membership and can tell you that while the ones that I've been to or have looked up to make a reservation have always had space for retail customers, surprisingly have nothing available for 'members.'
But I could not say that I would have wanted the stress of going someplace without a reservation. I'm planned out for the next 4 weeks and am starting my planning for the next 4. There was a time 20 years ago when I could drive into the Grand Canyon on a Sunday and find a spot without a reservation. But those days are over.2023 Reflection 150, Model 280RS

About all of my travel is west of the Rocky Mountains. If I'm willing to dry camp or just have electricity, I haven't had much trouble finding spots for overnighting.
I know I'll get flamed, but I'll stay in Wal-Marts, rest areas, or semi-uncrowded truck stops if it needed. Also, I'm very familiar with BLM and USFS dispersed camping regulations. It's usually easy to find spots there.
Finally, any spot I find that's worthwhile I'll try to do a writeup on https://campgrounds.rvlife.com/signature
