Best Beach Destinations 

Skip the expensive beach house rental and find an affordable RV park instead. You can camp within walking distance of most beaches. You may even be able to hear the sound of waves crashing through your windows at night. 

• Myrtle Beach. On the border between North and South Carolina, Myrtle Beach is one of the all-time most popular beaches. Ultra-kid-friendly, the beaches are lifeguarded and there are plenty of activities to do off the beach as well. The Carolina Coast is a truly great experience.  

• Virginia Beach. With its famed 3-mile-long boardwalk, families can walk, bike, eat, shop, play games, ride rides, and more. And of course, the beach is there for swimming, playing, and relaxing in the warm sun and sand.  
• Ocean City, MD. If you’re looking for a beach a little further up the coast, Ocean City offers a smaller-town beach experience. Most famous for “The Strip” which refers to Ocean City Blvd where restaurants, nightlife, shops, hotels, and other activities are available when you need a break from the sand and surf.  

Best Scenic Views and Natural Wonders 

When you want to experience the great outdoors, RV camping is an excellent way to do so. Drive to some of the most amazing natural wonders on the continent, park and enjoy the view. 

• Niagara Falls. You can’t fully appreciate it until you see it in person. The falls are truly phenomenal. Take a ride on the Maid of the Mist which gets so close to the base of the falls that you’ll need a poncho to keep from getting drenched. There are also plenty of other family-friendly attractions in the area.  
•  Grand Canyon. Another must-see-to-appreciate location, the Grand Canyon is a wonder of massive proportions. There are a variety of ways to appreciate it from scenic overlooks to hiking to donkey rides down into the canyon. A camper’s dream, the RV parks there are top notch.  
•  Yellowstone National Park. If you want to experience the Wild West in all its glory, Yellowstone is truly a place where the buffalo roam. It is also the home of Old Faithful and other geysers and hot springs which are unique to the West.
