Weekend Adventures

RVs aren't just for camping – and they're not just for summertime, either – they can open up a world of possibilities for adventure and travel. Escape the ordinary and enjoy the time away from work and the demanding weekday family schedules. Make the most of your downtime.

In spring & summer:

Head to your favorite park for an impromptu picnic after school or work. Instead of lugging along coolers, stock the refrigerator with treats and enjoy a fresh meal from your own RV kitchen.

Take along some friends to an outdoor concert. Avoid traffic coming and going by hosting pre- and post-concert tailgate parties. Play everyone's favorite tunes on your surround-sound stereo system.

Migrate north with the songbirds, and add scores of species to your birding list. From your own RV perch, you'll have a perfect view.

Follow the dog show circuit. At the end of the day, you can sit, stay, and roll over in your very own comfy bed.

Avoid the over-crowded tourist attractions and instead cruise the back roads as you enjoy the scenery through large picture windows. Along the way, pick up fresh produce at farmers' markets and cook up a local specialty in your gourmet kitchen-on-wheels.

Create your own beachfront property by taking your RV to the ocean. Wash off sandy feet with your RV's handy outdoor shower! And avoid the heavy traffic travel times by arriving early or leaving later because you’ve got the comforts of home at your finger tips.

Soak away your weekday worries in a campground hot tub. Surrounded by nature, it’s the perfect setting for a spa weekend to rejuvenate the body and soul.

Become an explorer by participating in a geocaching expedition and see what treasures or cache you can discover. It’s a world-wide craze following clues to treasure-hunting locations using GPS devices for guidance. And after a long day of trekking and searching, your own RV is an inviting base camp.

In fall & winter:

Pick up the kids from college and take them on a fun weekend getaway. They'll enjoy some good home-cooked meals-on-wheels. Or surprise them with their own tailgate party for the weekend’s big game.

Find great bargains at outlet centers – and you'll have plenty of storage room to haul your treasures home.

Volunteer with your RV and turn it into a soup-kitchen-on-wheels. (Many RV clubs offer boundless volunteer opportunities.)

Go antiquing along the main streets of small town America in your own traveling B&B (and avoid the local pricey ones!).

Take the family – or some kids from the scout troop – on a fall foliage tour. Everything you need –food, shelter, and plenty of gear – easily goes with you.

Travel to a pumpkin patch, pick out a winner, and carve it in your RV kitchen. Decorate your RV as spooky as you dare and have a haunted-house-on-wheels.

Visit an outdoor skating rink and between spins around the ice, make plenty of steaming cocoa and get toasty in your RV.

Enjoy the cold? How about using your RV as a mobile ice fishing hut? Park it on the shoreline of the lake and you’ll have the best catch of the day. Or, enjoy your own private ski chalet on wheels at the end of an exhausting day on the powdery slopes.

During the holidays, invite the choir to go caroling in your RV. Afterward, enjoy fresh-baked cookies and warm cider in the comfort of your on-board kitchen.

Head to the countryside in search of a Christmas tree farm. After cutting down the perfect tree, stow it in the RV's storage compartment. Sip cocoa all the way home while the kids watch a favorite holiday movie on the TV.
