Answer
Camping on Lake Mead, Lake Mohave or the Colorado River is awesome. But the good spots are remote and only assessible by boat. So if you don't have one, you can rent one and go to your own private beach to camp. We do this all summer long.

PS Lake Mohave is prettier and warmer than Lake Mead and the Colorado River is ice cold.

What are some places in the US where I should avoid going camping?

Q. Other than the obvious, Golden Gate Park, other towns, the middles of rivers and oceans, and Florida.

Answer
Next to me...

Seriously...Lake Mead National Recreation Area - most people's idea of camping in Vegas is to party at the lake. It's loud and crowded at Boulder Beach. Not a lot of fun.

Supai, AZ - While the falls are awesome, the campground is awful. Overflowing pit toilets (poop ovens we called them), WAY overcrowded (people on top of you), and "car camping" 10 miles from the car (I could not believe what people had packed down by horse - cots, coolers, BIG tents...not like backpacking at all). And noisy. Oh...and one runs the risk of being assaulted or worse.
