I like to stealth camp when I ride solo. That way I only have to take care of me. I choose to stealth camp in State forests and town lands, as well as national forests - anything besides private land. Hot showers are nice, but a wet washcloth and a little Dr. Bronner does the job quite nicely. I don't carry a stove, so no worries about cooking odors and/or wood smoke. Solo bliss.

If I have a partner, we stay at campgrounds/campsites. Otherwise, I take my Missus. She was was never taken camping when she was a kid, so consequently its very difficult to get her to sleep in a tent. BTDT... waaay too many times. Easier just to dee up some cash and get a room at an inn or B&B - which she really enjoys. It is what it is, and to be frank, I enjoy it as well. Its just not the same as seeing the sun come up over the ridge and being out in the wild.
