With a house in tow and a family by your side, you wake up to the sounds of chirping insects and singing birds, indulging in delicious cuisine by the snowy mountains or lakeside. Isn't this the dream of most people when it comes to RV travel? Today, let's talk about a few things about RVs~
✅【Advantages of RV Travel】
It offers a journey closer to nature, a return to simplicity; it allows you to savor and fully satisfy your "Chinese appetite" that knows no bounds; it is suitable for traveling with family or a few close friends; it's perfect for immersive experiences in national parks, forests, lakes, beaches, and other remote places.
🔍【Renting Options】
There are many websites for RV reservations; you can Google the rankings of local RV rental companies.
🔆【Driver's License Requirements】A regular C1 driver's license is sufficient for driving an RV.
‼️【Campsite Reservations】
After securing the RV, it's important to make early reservations for campsites, especially during peak travel seasons like summer holidays when popular destinations tend to fill up quickly. The easiest way to book a campsite is to Google search "RV park" and you'll find various reservation options, along with detailed information available on 3D maps in advance.
✨【Recommended Campsites】
📍Bridge Bay Campground in Yellowstone National Park is the most rugged, but its beauty, convenience for sightseeing, and close proximity to nature make up for it. The sites have nothing but public toilets, although there is a public dump station and water refill area. It's recommended to fill up the water tank in the RV before arriving so that the whole family can take a simple shower. The prices are affordable, and spending a night here, disconnected from the world, surrounded by nature, and enjoying a family barbecue around a bonfire, sharing your living space with wild bison, is an experience unique to Yellowstone.
📍Colter Bay RV Park near Jackson Lake in Grand Teton National Park is just a few steps away from the magnificent views of the lake and mountains. It also has a swimming beach, public bathrooms, and a laundry room (which closes at 9:00 pm). Wi-Fi is only available near the office.
📍KOA in Moab is a nationwide chain of campsites with better facilities, including a swimming pool, but the prices are relatively higher.
