Things to do while RV camping?




T


We are in our 40's & Have a few kids from 6 -16 in a 28 ft travel trailer , and looking for things to keep us busy or things to bring for a family's 1st time camping trip in the NY CT ME RI area.Tailgating ideasfor the adults are also considered. in addition to any lighting flags party favor ideas for the whole experience.. We have tent camped and just upgraded froma pop up..


Answer
Whenever I go camping, be it in a tent or an RV, I choose my destination because there's things I want to do or see there. Neither the RV (or tent) nor campground is my destination, I only go there to sleep or maybe take some meals.

We enjoy visiting national and state parks, BLM land, wilderness properties owned by friends and members of our or other Jeep clubs. We spend our time off-roading, hiking, climbing, fishing, horseback riding, kayaking, floating and just enjoying the scenery. Upstate NY - Adirondacks and Catskills regions - is a favorite destination. Maine and western Massachusetts also offers outdoor recreational and scenic opportunities. If we go to a "tourist" type area, we'll visit the typical sites, hit the shops, take lots of pictures, maybe spend one or two days relaxing by the pool at the campsite.

The only things I ever brought to keep the kids busy at camp were their bicycles, a couple of board games and some videos for them to watch on the TV or laptop in case of rain.

Northern Arizona Camping?

I want to go on a camping trip to northern Arizona, perhaps the Grand Canyon in mid May. I live in west Phoenix but I'm new to Arizona so I don't know any good camping grounds. I've only camped twice, and I'm only looking for a two night trip. So basically, any info I would need to know, or any suggestions about good camping grounds. I do have a jeep so it would be fun to do a little 4x4-ing maybe to get to the camp area. Also, I'm a college kid dont have that much money so whatever is nice area but cheap too would be great!


Answer
Try using this site, it's pretty simple to use http://www.woodalls.com/tents/

Just enter in a state, city or tell it within so many miles of a location. It'll also give you info on what amenities that campground offers. Example, pets, swimming, fishing, if they're year round, etc.

I like it because Woodalls is a name you can trust and it's a great tool to find campgrounds anywhere with the amenities you might be looking for.

Also, if you need a checklist to make sure you're not forgetting anything, we have a pretty good camping checklist on our website. You can see it here. http://www.family-tents.com/articles/Camping-Checklist

Oh, don't forget the food. Campsite food seems to always taste really good. Camping food memories can be among the best. Here is a great website for camping food ideas and they also offer a FREE ebook with camping recipes. I've got it, it's terrific. In fact, as far as camping websites go, this is one of the best I've seen. http://www.joyofcamping.com/category/camping-recipes/

I hope this helps. Happy camping to you.
