When you were a kid did you ever get a bunch of friends together and set up a tent in the backyard and pretend you were camping? You and your friends thinking it was hysterical when you told your sister that it was for boys only and she could not play and ran away crying. Or at least it was funny until mom found out. Did you ever go backpacking in the mountains? Or, hiking in a forest? What images does it bring to your mind?

Many kids enjoy going to summer camp so they can hang out with a bunch of other kids and tell ghost stories around the campfire while everyone pretends they are not really scared. You can’t admit you are actually afraid because that’s not cool and they may make fun of you. Yet you are already thinking about the camping gear you may need for next summer, as well as planning your revenge for the year before.

You have talked about it several times, but have never actually done it, so why not now? Pack up the family, hop into an RV camper and head out for a great camping adventure. Planning ahead for such things, such as making sure there are campgrounds or RV services available for your trip can save many headaches later. Also be sure to check and see if reservations are required at any of the places where you are planning to stop.

If you are planning to travel in an RV camper, then plan ahead and find out if any of the locations you plan to camp in have restrictions in place. They may not allow motorized vehicles of any kind, or maybe there is day use only and they have no overnight accommodations available.
