AC Great Rivers Route?

I tried posting on the AC forums, but thought I might get more response here. I'd appreciate any comments from folks who have done the Great Rivers route. I have done some touring in areas somewhat in the vicinity (Trans America and KC to Santa Fe) but not on this route.

How rural and small town is it? Does it have that small town feel where you can typically camp in the town park picnic area without being kicked out? Is other hospitality generally available (and listed on the AC maps) like camping at churches and so on. How are the prices for camping in the state and other parks and how readily available is camping in general? Did you need to resort to private campgrounds much.

How are room prices along the route if I decide to get a room once in a while?

When do you consider the best time of year to go? I was thinking maybe spring, but have not yet looked at historical weather data.
