I-95 North Carolina, Exit 90. Raleigh Oaks RV Resort. 1/2 mile from Interstate. Clean pull through sites. Reasonable rates.

IMO, Walmart and Rest Areas are not a choice. You can't overnight in Rest Areas around here. If you are a real glutton, there is a Walmart at the exit before 53 that allows rv overnights.

If you make it to south Georgia, Coastal RV Resort is just off I-95 in Brunswick. Beautiful pull through sites and all amenities.

Stayed at the Swamp Fox Campground right off the exit 157 in Florence SC this past January on our way to Florida. Large pull thru sites w/full hookups. They do not accept the PA discount that time of year but it was still cheap, right off the Highway and once we dropped the trailer it was 3 miles back to exit 160 which had every fast food restaurant, chain Restaurants, discount stores, Big Box warehouse stores, Cheap Gas, etc. that you would ever need.
Used the Campground's bathrooms/showers (which were very clean) as it dropped to 24 degrees that night & I did not feel like un-winterizing in those temps.

I am very familiar with the NC, SC, Ga camp grounds off I-95 as are many here. If we knew where you may be a quick list of possibilities are endless as you can see.

If you're just looking to get some sleep there are a ton of Cracker Barells down there. Well lit and free. And in the morning you can get a great breakfast. We usually pull in just before closing and have dinner and when they open get breakfast and be on our way. Just a thought.

We seldom stopped in rest areas, Walmart's, Cracker Barrels, etc. when we had the travel trailer. Primarily for security reasons... we didn't like to have to get out of the TV and go to the TT in the dark, in an unfamiliar area. Now, with the motorhome, it's not an issue. If we can't get into a campground, we are comfortable staying in a parking lot.
We DO follow the common sense rules about that: Letting the manager know that we're there, park under a light with the door facing the establishment, always purchasing something there, etc. As someone else has mentioned, Cracker Barrel's are great for that. Having said that, there is a comfort level with WalMart, as they are open 24/7, and have a LOT of security cameras.
A parking lot is a last resort for us if we can't get into a campground.
Does anyone know if Camping World allows overnight parking for RV's?
Have fun and be safe!

NC and SC do not allow overnighting in their interstate rest areas. We normally do a quick overnight at Walmart or a Lowes home improvement center where they often leave the WiFi on all night.

We have stayed in many a walmart supercenters while we are traveling. Have always felt safe there. Make sure you check in with the customer service desk. They usually request that you park in a certain area. In bad weather, it is also a great place to get some walking in after a day on the road.
