A Few Top RV Destinations

Just Google the words “top destinations for RVers” and you get numerous opinions from different states and geographic areas as to what is the best vacation spots available for RVers.  We wanted to weigh in with some select choices. 

For those that desire to see more of our National Parks this year, most of them offer plenty of camping options both in and around the parks.  Some of the campgrounds are on a first-come, first-serve basis but there are numerous parks that allow for reservations and encourage those to be made early.  

For example according to the U.S. National Parks Service, Yellowstone National Park offers 12 campgrounds in the park.  Of those, five are operated by Xanterra Parks and Resorts, the largest national and state park concessioner in the United States.  All five offer reservation campgrounds with over 1,700 sites and are the Madison, Fishing Bridge RV Park, Bridge Bay, Canyon, and Grant Village.

At the Grand Canyon, there is only one RV campground offered in the park that has full hook-ups. Located in the Grand Canyon Village on the South Rim, Trailer Village offers advanced reservations, which again can be done through Xanterra Parks and Resorts.   Check out Xanterra’s website for listings of other campsites in numerous other large national parks including Crater Lake N.P., Rocky Mountain N.P. and Zion N.P.

For those interested in camping in Yosemite N.P., it is all primitive and does not offer any sites with hook-ups.  Fortunately there are campgrounds outside of the park such as Yosemite Pines RV Park that is full of amenities.  While Arches N.P. only has limited rustic camping, it can be reserved in advanced and nearby Moab has a variety of campgrounds in and around the city with plenty of options.  Redwood N.P. offers four different campgrounds inside the park but none of them have RV hook-ups. 

 

Hope this small selection gets you started thinking about all of the many parks and recreational areas out there waiting to be discovered.  The best advice is to do your homework first so there are only pleasant surprises along the way.
