RV Tips

Make Good on Long Weekends

Don’t let the calendar take you by surprise! If your job allows you to enjoy long weekends over certain holidays, plan ahead to travel. Don’t just save your travel plans for when you can take 1-2 weeks off at a time. Use long weekends to travel short distances and stay close(r) to home so you’re spending less time driving to your destination and more time enjoying it!

Create a Travel Savings Fund

Set up a dedicated savings fund specifically for travel. This can help you budget for your trips and make your travel goals financially feasible. Contribute to it year-round so you can fund the road trips you really want to take without putting a pinch in your finances.

Document Your Adventures

Keep a travel diary to log your road trips! Not only will it be a wonderful memento you can look back on later, but you can also use it to help steer future plans. How? Make sure to log the dates/time of year you visited, what the weather was like, whether it was in the “off-season” or in the thick of tourist season, and notes about the campground, parking, restaurants, etc. Use these notes to make choices in future years about where to return to and what to skip.

Challenge Yourself

Everyone has favorite places they love to return to again and again, but give yourself a travel challenge to add one or two (or more!) new destinations to your list of stops in the new year and really expand your traveling resume of experiences. Variety keeps things new and exciting!

Delegate Responsibility

Keeping your RV in road-ready condition allows you to maximize on the fun you want to have. Divide up the DIY care among family members that you can do to keep your RV clean and comfortable, and trust us for the rest! We can help set you up with an RV service schedule so that all of the things that need to get checked on a regular basis are taken care of by people you can trust.
