Why RV Camping Is the Best Way To Explore

There are a lot of ways to see the world, but RV camping has always been the coolest. Combine the classic road trip with the allure of the great outdoors, add an RV to take you there with the comfort of a home away from home, and you’ve got a recipe for some serious adventure.

RV camping offers a unique and exciting way to explore the world. By combining the thrill of a classic road trip with the beauty of the great outdoors, you can embark on an adventure like no other. With an RV, you have the convenience and comfort of a home away from home, making your journey even more enjoyable.

Recent consumer research reveals that around 50 million Americans are planning to travel by RV this year. Discover the compelling reasons why you should join them in this incredible experience.

It’s a safe way to travel.

The outbreak of the pandemic significantly disrupted our travel plans, and even though the world is gradually reopening, many travelers remain cautious. Opting for RV camping allows you to stay within your comfort zone, as everything you require is conveniently available in your vehicle. According to the U.S. Travel Association, the average American is almost four times more inclined to consider traveling in a personal vehicle as safe, compared to taking a domestic flight. The Association's list of "safe" activities ranks visiting parks or campgrounds higher than rental homes and hotels. Remarkably, it is second only to embarking on a road trip.

It’s a lot cheaper than a hotel.

Frequent or occasional travelers are well aware of how quickly hotel and other accommodation expenses can accumulate, especially when traveling with the entire family. RVing, on the other hand, is an undoubtedly cost-efficient form of travel. By opting for a towable RV that can accommodate five people, you can secure it for payments that amount to less than $5 per day. Throughout the country, campground prices usually start at approximately $20 per night and rarely exceed $75.

According to J.D. Power, the average RV spot, equipped with power and water hookups, costs around $30. Regardless of how you analyze it, this represents a significant saving compared to the typical vacation.

It gets you off the beaten path.

Traveling in a mobile home allows you to explore hidden gems that most people never get to see. Many of the most stunning locations in America are located far away from towns with accommodations and amenities. However, the journey is always worthwhile, especially if you have an RV to accompany you. Embark on a desert adventure and witness the mesmerizing beauty of the International Dark Sky Parks in the American Southwest.

Alternatively, tow your RV into Maine's 100 Mile Wilderness, a place that truly lives up to its name. You could also discover a serene spot on the beach in Northern California and marvel at the sunset over the Pacific. With an RV, you don't need to worry about booking hotel rooms or renting cars – your home is wherever you park it.

While there are weight limits even for the largest mobile homes, you can still bring along a significant amount of belongings. Unlike air or train travel, where luggage is restricted or comes with hefty fees, RV travel allows you to pack more comfortably.

If you have enough storage space, you can bring everything you need to ensure a comfortable journey for as long as you're on the road. Whether it's mountain bikes for conquering the renowned trails around Moab or an easel and canvas to capture the beauty of a moss-draped live oak in Savannah, the possibilities are endless. RV travel accommodates various styles and passions – what will you pack for your adventure?

 

It lets you slow down.

A more “traditional” vacation is often planned down to the minute. We’ve all experienced the stress of rushing to catch a flight, check into a hotel, or make it to a dinner reservation. The real magic of RV travel is that it can free you up to do things at your own pace. Spend a whole day exploring a park or museum; take a drive and stop whenever you see something worth stopping for. In fact, you can stop anywhere you want, anytime you want.

When you’re not concerned about getting back to the hotel every night, you’re able to just go with the flow. The ultimate flexibility RV travel offers means your trip is constantly open to spontaneity, and that usually makes things a whole lot more fun.

This fact is self-explanatory: You don't have to leave your beloved furry companions at home or worry about subjecting them to uncomfortable travel carriers during a flight. Welcome aboard, co-pilot!

It brings people together.

While some RVs offer more living space than you can imagine, even the largest ones are not exactly spacious. And that's a good thing. Close quarters mean plenty of bonding time for you and your fellow travelers - and isn't that the part of a vacation that creates the most cherished memories?

It's a true home away from home.

An RV can be like a dream hotel suite that you get to stay in whenever and wherever you want. The amenities, luxuries, and upgrades are limitless, and an RV tailored to your specific preferences will quickly become your happy place. 

It can have all the comforts of home too. Appliances, furniture, fixtures - everything is customizable, allowing you to add everything you need to ensure you and your family feel completely comfortable and at home, even when you're far away from it.

It provides an instant community.

There's a unique camaraderie that can be found at campgrounds. In a hotel, you might never meet your neighbor, but in RV parks, people from all walks of life seem to find common ground. It's not uncommon to find yourself swapping travel stories with a new friend around the campfire. In a world where we've become somewhat wary of each other, the campground remains a place where strangers don't stay strangers for long.

In fact, RVing may be a large community - with over 10 million enthusiasts in America alone - but it's still a close-knit world. And with over 2,000 Good Sam RV parks and campgrounds throughout the country, you're never far from a kindred spirit. No matter where you wander, you'll find people who understand the unique joys of RV travel. Are you ready to join them?
