Update on availability of campgrounds and RV's for the summer

We have been busy bees here since the holidays as many start to plan their summer vacations, particularly folks that are big planners because they want their trip to go just right or they have big families (takes a lot to coordinate 6-8 calendars, right?).

We are already seeing limited availability of campgrounds along the California coast around the Fourth of July holiday. We expect to see a continuation of the trend of vacationers staying closer to home, so it's not surprising to see California campgrounds booking up (there's a ton of people living in California!).

So far we are still seeing good RV availability with many companies - even in Canada (where the exchange rate still offers a 20% discount for US travelers!). And we know that this will change soon, particularly around major holidays (Fourth of July, Memorial Day, Labor Day) and major events (Calgary Stampede, Sturgis Motorcycle Rally, Burning Man). We do our best to keep a calendar of major happenings so that we can steer you around the big crowds. Don't procrasinate if you have plans for a great National Park vacation! Now is the best time to plan!

If you call us today (800-247-0970), one of our trip consultants can help you with finding that out-of-the-way, off-the-beaten-path destination, fun activity or campground that will make your vacation!
