Finding the perfect campsite for your RV doesn’t have to be overwhelming. These RV tips will help you narrow down your must-haves for your next camping trip and get the right side booked. Learn more below.
Make a Checklist of Must-Have Features
Start by sitting down and making a checklist of your must-haves for your campsite. If you’re looking for a site that’s near the water so you can go fishing, write that down. By the same token, if you are camping with kids and want to be within sight of the playground, make sure that’s on your list of must-haves.
Research Your Campground
If you know your travel destination, you next want to research the campgrounds in the area. Most campgrounds have similar amenities, but you can find ones in the area that offer more conveniences or have a better rate per night if you shop around.
Call Well Ahead of Time
Next, you’ll want to call ahead of time to ensure you get the site you want and don’t arrive at the campground with few to no options. Additionally, calling ahead of time will help you get a feel for the campground staff and their customer service.
Ask the Campground Staff
A great way to find the best sites at a campground is just by asking the staff when you’re on the phone to book your site. You can ask about the most popular campsite or the most requested in addition to their favorite to help narrow your list of requests.
Be Willing to Ask to Move
Another key tip for getting the perfect campsite is to be willing to ask to move. If the campsite you receive does not fit your needs. Once you arrive at the campground, inspect the campsite before you pull your RV in. This will ensure you have plenty of space for your RV, and you won’t have to waste time getting into a spot you may need to move from shortly.
Make Notes for Next Time
Another tip for being sure you get the right campsite every time is to make notes for next time. These notes can help you determine what things need to stay on your must-have list and what types of campsites you prefer. For example, if you requested a spot near the bathhouse, but you determined that that is too noisy, then making a note of that for next time can be helpful when booking your future vacations.
