We have a controller who is using VRC over Parallels very successfully on a Mac.
Yes, Parallels or BootCamp will work well. Plenty of tutorials on YouTube on how to get those setup.
The big 4 will work for this:
Parallels, as already mentioned,
BootCamp, as already mentioned,
VirtualBox, which works great, and
CrossOver, which works very well.
Of the 4, I would rank them, from first to last: CrossOver, Parallels, VirtualBox, then Bootcamp. Here's why.
CrossOver and Parallels would be the first two choices, as they would allow you to run VRC natively on a Mac, without requiring a VM or a separate Windows installation (XP at the oldest). I would put CrossOver slightly ahead of Parallels, mainly because of cost (Parallels costs more).
After that, I would go with VirtualBox, which is free, but requires you to install Windows, and this would be in a Virtual Machine. Additionally, you could use VmWare, but that has an even bigger license cost on top of the license for Windows.
Finally, you have Bootcamp, but that allows you to run Windows on your Mac, but you would be booting to Windows (basically making your Mac Hardware a PC), and not natively running MacOS. From there, you'd run your machine like it is a regular PC.
I use CrossOver, and it works great. But you can't go wrong with any of those four.
