How Has Technology Transformed RV Camping

Have you ever gone to RV camping? Was it frustrating more than it was fun? Well, not anymore! Technology has completely transformed this niche and made things much easier and exciting for you. Wondering what we mean by that? How about we tell you there are apps that can help you have an amazing, personalized camping experience. Yes, you do not have to spend a lot of time on the preparation with these tools. 

The only thing you will have to take care of is your internet connection that has to be steady and reliable at all times. If you are looking for suggestions, Xfinity is a great option. The plans offered by this provider are quite affordable and the Xfinity Customer Service is quick and effective. 

Anyway, below are some of the apps to download on your phones immediately:

Campedium

If you love camping but hate spending a lot of money on the preparation, this app is for you. Whether you hunting for the best casinos or fancy RV hotels, Campedium will do the job for you. The interface of this app is quite easy to use and you do not need to watch a hundred videos to learn how to use all the features. 

On registering, you will find a bunch of filters including price, location, amenities, and type of hookups. These filters help you find the perfect place in no time. You will also be able to filter campsites by mobile coverage of different networks as well. So, yeah, this way you would not have to change your network. Moreover, there also is a paid version of the app, which is not that expensive, if you wish to unlock other features. 

Harvest Hosts/ Boondockers Welcome

This is a network of more than 5000 breweries, farms, wineries, churches and museums across the US and Canada. With these programs, you get to stay at a unique location with a host completely free. The only thing you might have to purchase is anything costing $30, which is usually from a small business. 

The only drawback of this program is that you might have to have a self-contained RV with a kitchen and bathroom. It is most used when you are on a long journey and you need to break up long drives. 

Recreation.gov

Heard of this app already? This app helps you plan your cross-country road trips and find and book campsites. You can also view location details and check reservations from the past. With this app, you can plan your camping trips by reserving campsites across the country. The Recreation.gov app lets you compare and book campsites throughout the country or in your zip code.

Allstays

This is a free online app that provides you with information on almost all RV parking spots. Over 3,700 locations are available in the database, including campgrounds, RV hotels, resort parks, and more.

If you’re planning a camping trip for the weekend and want to be close to your favorite spots, or don’t know enough about the areas to park in before heading there, this is the app you need to download immediately. Any device will work with Allstays’ app, regardless of if you’re an Android or Apple user. They also have a website that you can access from your computer.

The Dyrt

This website and app has more than 45,000 campgrounds in its database across the US. With a premium The Dyrt Pro membership, you will have access to tons of perks that come with searching for campgrounds. It allows you to create an account and view detailed descriptions of amenities, contact information, user-submitted photos, and content before going on a trip. As a Dyrt user, you’ll be able to get fantastic discounts and deals on gear and selected campgrounds!

Using the Dyrt App is like being part of a large camp community. Now, instead of just calling one friend for suggestions of campsites, you have a whole network of camper friends at your disposal.

Hipcamp app

It is a wonderful resource for those who do not want to pay for hotel rooms while traveling. The cost of a hotel room for a family can reach $200 or more. Hipcamp sites, on the other hand, are often less than $50 per site. It’s still cheaper to rent a tent, sleeping bags, pillows, and blankets for three nights than to pay $500 for basic camping gear.

Moreover, Hipcamp is a great entry point into camping for families who have never camped before. Moreover, since Hipcamp sites are private property, parents can rest assured their children are safe. You won’t have to worry about your toddler disturbing other campers if you’re camping with one.

Conclusion

That’s all folks! We hope RV camping is all fun and comfortable with these apps.
