Plan A Camping Trip

July 22nd, 2008

One of the main things that hold people back from camping is simply figuring out a place to go and guaranteeing you’ll have a nice campsite when you get there.

My friend mentioned a website to me that they used to plan a camping trip they went on in Nevada. It’s called recreation.gov. It’s a super informative website that can help you:

  • Find a campsite anywhere in the U.S.
  • Reserve a spot for specific dates
  • Look at pictures of the site itself
  • See if you can bring your dog along
  • Find out what type of outdoor recreation is near by (boating, biking etc.)
  • Specify if your site has RV hookups

It also has a search engine that allows you to search by activity. So say if you wanted to go wakeboarding near Salt Lake City and didn’t know where to go you could search for it. It doesn’t have every single campsite and area listed but it is pretty comprehensive.

I hope you find it helpful and plan a camping trip soon. Before we know it school will be starting and summer fun will be ending. So get out there and have some fun with your kids!

Don’t forget, Nature For Kids is giving away free logo stickers. Take a look at the Flower Child post for more information. Give away ends July 31st.
