6 Small Towns to RV this Winter

Winter is one of my favorite times of the year to go RV camping. Yes, you read that right. If you thought camping was only a three-season activity, think again. Winter is actually one of the most unique and memorable times of year to RV camp. It’s a chance to discover charming towns that remind you of a Norman Rockwell painting. Cozy up with some hot cocoa in your RV and enjoy cold-weather outdoor activities like skiing and ice fishing.

Before you decide to take your RV on a winter camping trip, get your RV ready for the frigid conditions. The last thing you want are frozen pipes and a weak heating source in the middle of winter. Of course, if you’re headed down south to someplace warm, you won’t need to worry about the impact of freezing temperatures on your RV.

If you have an ice fishing house or fish house, you are set for some serious winter camping. Ice houses are RVs designed for ice fishing on the coldest days of the year. But you don’t necessarily need to ice fish to camp in one. You can take off the clunky winter boots and oversized parka because fish houses typically have winter-rated insulation and 25,000 to 40,000 BTU heaters. Frozen and bursting pipes and tanks are still an issue so follow the same winter water system tips as you would for a regular RV. 

Ready to go winter camping? Check out some of the coolest, pun intended, small towns you can camp this winter. All of these towns have campgrounds that are open year-round or dispersed camping where you’re without electricity, water, or sewer hookups.

Grand Marais, Minnesota

Why not camp in one of the coldest parts of the country this winter? While it lacks skyscrapers and has only one traffic light, Grand Marais, Minnesota, makes up for it in ten folds with its beautiful views of Lake Superior, restaurants, shops, and access to the Superior National Forest. Take a right turn at the one traffic light, and you’ll be greeted by the World’s Best Donuts. Head north on the Gunflint Trail, and you’ll find opportunities for dog sledding at Gunflint Lodge or Bearskin Lodge. There are also frequent moose sightings on the Gunflint Trail. Glide across the groomed ski trails at Pincushion Mountain, and if you have a dog, you can skijor, which is basically skiing with your dog, on part of the trail system.

A Gift Guide for Your Full-Time RVer Friends

Full-time RVing is becoming more and more popular. People are selling everything they own and hitting the road. If you’re not a full-timer yourself, you likely know someone who is.

With the holiday season just around the corner, shopping for those full-timer friends might be stressing you out. What do you get the person who lives minimally and collects experiences over things? I’m here to help.

Here’s a gift guide for the full-time RVer in your life. But it’s not just your average list of must-haves. After several years of RVing full-time myself, I’ve met almost every type of RVer out there while striking up conversations at the campground. So I’ve organized the guide by different RV personality types to make it even more convenient for you to find the perfect gift.

For the Adventurer

Is your full-timer friend all about seeking outdoor adventures and thrills? This type of RVer is active and always looking for new experiences in the places they visit. Here are a couple gift ideas for them.

A Hydration Pack

We all know water is a must for long hikes, bike rides, or really anytime you’re outdoors for an extended amount of time. The CamelBak M.U.L.E. 100-oz. Hydration Pack is a must-have for any outdoor enthusiast. It’s one of their bestselling, longest-running packs so you can rest assured it’s a great gift.

6 Simple Ways to Stop Wasting Fuel

With the high costs of both gasoline and diesel fuel, it’s a good idea for RV travelers to modify driving habits to help reduce vehicle fuel consumption. Driving slower, accelerating at a moderate rate and keeping your vehicle in a well-maintained state are undoubtedly great ways to cut RV fuel costs. But many wasteful driving styles haven’t changed.

Consider how the following fuel wasters impact your budget’s bottom line:

Photo: Peter Mercer

Following Too Closely

Referred to as “tailgating,” this habit can cost you dearly at the pump and is hazardous for both you and the person in front. Looming close behind other vehicles, tailgaters work the throttle to maintain the distance between their vehicle and the one ahead. Frequent brake applications are required in maintaining this close proximity and the constant throttle-adjustment surges result in wasted fuel burn. All that braking consumes energy from the vehicle’s momentum — momentum that was built by fuel. And more fuel will be needed to regain that same speed.

Delayed Braking Application

Every day, we see people approaching a stoplight or sign at a speed looking like they’re not going to stop. Then, miraculously, they hit the brakes hard, halting their vehicle at the last second. This habit not only puts a lot of strain on your brakes but also delays the retarding of the throttle, which burns fuel needlessly. Starting to slow down appropriately begins with reducing the throttle input to zero at an appropriate distance for a normal braking application based on the vehicle’s weight and momentum.

Half-Ton Towable RVs for Couples

Let’s talk iconic duos. We have Sonny and Cher, Batman and Robin, Chip and Joanna, Oprah and Gayle, Salt-N-Pepa – the list is endless, but let’s talk about you and yours. Whether you choose to hit the road with your significant other or your best friend, we recommend doing it in style.

Nothing says style like half-ton towable RVs built for couples. Traveling off the beaten path has never been more enticing or more accessible than now. As new 2022 RVs hit the market, there’s a floor plan out there for you. Here are a few of our favorites.

2022 Keystone Cougar 24RDS

Length: 28’11”Weight: 7,369 lbs.Sleep Capacity: 62022 Keystone Cougar 24RDS Exterior

If you’re looking for the perfect RV to get away for a long weekend, then look no further. The Keystone Cougar 24RDS has the features of larger fifth wheels but in a more lightweight package. The result? An RV you can tow with your half-ton truck making it ideal for those intimate, more remote campgrounds.

Inside, the u-shaped dinette sits two comfortable but can easily handle four if you decide to invite a few friends over for a double date. Share a few laughs, a few memories, and a few drinks while the kids are with the grandparents or sitter and you’re on a long weekend in your rolling getaway cabin. Speaking of those drinks, if your friends have a few too many (it happens) – no worries. The dinette drops down into a bed, so no one has to venture out once the party ends.

2022 Keystone Cougar 24RDS Interior

The trifold sofa also folds out for sleeping in case you need options. Located in the slide, the sofa doesn’t impede the open floor space. Windows throughout have black-out roller shades for privacy when you need it and views when you don’t. The LED lights are on a dimmer, so you can set the mood when it’s just the two of you for those romantic evenings alone.

The RVers Guide to Camping for Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving is all about celebrating the people, places, and things we’re thankful for. The RV community shows its gratitude by embracing campsites and the outdoors as the backdrop for their celebrations. Here at Camping World, we are grateful for the full-timers, weekend warriors, and everyone in between for their continued loyalty to the RV lifestyle. Our community is more solid than ever because of the bonds built around roaring campfires and along scenic trails.

Whether you plan to hit the road before, after, or on Thanksgiving, now is the perfect time to plan your adventure. Not sure what to prepare for? No worries, pumpkin! We’ve compiled an RVers guide to camping for Thanksgiving that will help you check all the boxes. With a bit of preparation, you can make this holiday with your loved ones the best yet. We’ve been around the campground quite a few times, so gather around and read on for our helpful tips – they’re easy as pie.

What to Cook for Thanksgiving Dinner?

Image Courtesy of Shutterstock

While the Thanksgiving holiday is the perfect time to share what we’re most thankful for with the ones that mean the most in our lives, it’s also about the food. The meal is what pulls us in, sits us down, and allows us the opportunity to open up about the things we’re most grateful for. As a result, the meal cannot disappoint. It must be delicious!

What is Thanksgiving without a juicy turkey? Let’s start there. If you’re big on traditions and cook your turkey every year, you can still do so while camping. The main issue to consider is size. In this case, bigger isn’t always better. Consider scaling back the size of your bird or opt for several turkey breasts to cook instead. RV ovens aren’t equipped to handle the giant turkeys you see in pictures and on television this time of year.

If the turkey is the main character, then side dishes are the supporting characters, and you need both for a solid production all around. Many would even argue that the side dishes are just as important. The meal is a full cast, and everything has to pull its weight. Try adding a new campfire recipe to your menu this year or choose one of our favorites below; we guarantee everyone around the table will be asking for an encore.

Camping World’s Guide to RVing Big Bend National Park

Big Bend National Park is one of the most unique and remote national parks in the country. Even though visitation has increased in recent years, its remote nature makes it one of America’s least-visited parks. 

So, if you’re tired of crowds at other national parks, Big Bend is the perfect place to go RVing this year. Although it’s remote, the drive to Big Bend is well worth it. Once you arrive, you’re greeted by an enormous 801,163-acre park with plenty of reasons to stay awhile. 

Why Visit Big Bend National Park in an RV?

Photo by Wisanu Boonwrad via Shutterstock

Big Bend has an incredibly diverse landscape: mountains, desert, rivers, forests, and even waterfalls. The unique landscape is home to more than 1,200 plant species and more than 450 documented bird species.

The park also includes the largest protected Chihuahuan Desert region in the country and the southernmost mountain range in the U.S. The highest point in the park is Emory Peak, which stands at 7,825 feet above sea level. 

The remoteness of Big Bend also means a serious lack of light pollution, which is a stargazer’s dream. Whether you’re camping in the high country or down in the desert, make sure to look up once the last light from the sun fades away.

Tackling RV Fridge, Heat and Electrical Troubles in October’s Mark My Words

Hi all! This month, we’ve got questions on various RV appliances. Remember to send your RVing questions to This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it..

Hi Mark,
We’ve noticed an increase of icing on our fridge-cooling fins. It is the original Norcold fridge in our 1996 Itasca Sunrise. Food remains cold at a midrange setting and the freezer seems to keep things frozen sufficiently, so there is nothing to complain about other than a concern about the icing. We do clean out the fridge and freezer routinely. The icing is occurring while we’re hooked up to shore power and doesn’t seem to be any different whether it is set for normal operation or high humidity.  We only run on gas infrequently. Wondering if there is something we should be doing differently.
Thanks,
Phil

Hi Phil,
Usually, when an RV refrigerator starts forming more frost but still cools normally, I’d look at the door gasket. It doesn’t take much of a leak to let humid, warm air into the fridge and that will definitely increase frost production.

Photo: CWH

Visually inspect the door seal for any tears or obvious problems. Clean both surfaces. Now, close the door with a dollar bill inserted between the door seal and the body of the refrigerator. You should be able to pull it out with some resistance, but in areas where the seal is not making, it will be very easy to pull out or entirely loose. Usually, there’s no way to fix a door seal, you just have to replace it. It’s not a very hard job to do.

How to Live in an RV as Newlyweds

You find the one you want to spend your life with, you get married, and you take on life together one decision at a time…

One of the biggest choices a married couple encounter is where to live. Many newlyweds choose to rent an apartment or build a house, but it’s becoming increasingly popular for newlyweds to pursue a nomadic, minimalistic RV lifestyle. That’s exactly what we did, and we wouldn’t have it any other way. Choosing to live in an RV has brought us constant excitement and adventure with a never-ending bucket list of places to explore.

A common misconception is that RVing is only for the retired community, but it has become an increasingly popular choice for young couples who wish to chase adventure. A recent survey of RVer demographics by RVIA shared that 22% of RVers are 18-24 years old and 51% are under 55 years old! Social media could be one aspect leading to the rise in young couples pursuing RV life.

The growth of social media over the last decade has made travel more desirable by opening a window to the world. Millions of us get to see places online that we otherwise wouldn’t know about, which leads us to want to visit those places and see them for ourselves! Aside from amazing destinations displayed all over social media, there are thousands of social media accounts that share a fairytale perspective of tiny living in an RV. If you are chasing wanderlust and want to pursue a more nomadic way of life, there are certain things you need to understand that will help you navigate RV life as newlyweds.

Choosing your RV

The first step is choosing your rig! Yes, it is common to call your RV a “rig,” in the RV community. When deciding on the right RV for you, there are many things that you must consider. It’s important to decide what kind of camping you intend to do, choose a layout that you love, and determine your “must-haves” in an RV.

How To Keep Your Dog Safe While Moving in a Motorhome

The best part of RV travel for our family is that we can all be together, and that includes our dogs. However, it’s not all fun and games: ensuring our dogs’ safety is a major part of RVing with pets. A motorhome is our home, and their home, on the road.

Over five years of full-time travel with Peanut Butter Brickle and Digby Pancake has taught us many lessons, and we have made many mistakes. Some of the mistakes had very different outcomes. Learn from our mistakes, and you will enjoy a safe and fun time on the road with your dogs!

It is important not only to keep your dog safe while moving, but part of moving is stopping to take breaks. Whether that is at a rest area, a park, or during an emergency–preparation is key! The unexpected will happen. But you can prepare physically and mentally before your journey.

Introduce Your Dog To The RV Before That First Travel Day

First impressions are very important. Not only should you consider taking your dog with you to shop for an RV (Camping World welcomes fur family), but before you travel one mile together, introduce your dog to your motorhome! For two weeks our dogs and our RV got to know each other. As senior dogs, they were a little more unsteady when it came to stairs. So our first goal was to get them safely in and out of the RV. We did not know about dog ramps at that time, and it would have made the transition so much easier! Spend some test nights in the motorhome with your dog so you build a routine, and find a comfortable space. Take a ride with your dog in the motorhome to a park or a favorite place so that your dog associates the motorhome with fun.

Peanut Butter Brickle and Digby Pancake, fur family behind and Rachel and Nate of “2 Traveling Dogs.”

Get A Health Check-Up For Your Dog At The Veterinarian

We all know that good health is one of the most valuable assets we can have. Before you travel with your dog, make an appointment with your veterinarian. Make sure your dog is healthy enough to travel and that all medications are filled. Make copies of your dog’s records and keep them in an accessible place in your motorhome, or car if you are towing. Many states require records to cross state lines, and campgrounds may also require vaccination records in order to make a reservation.

Fall for Apple Crisp Foil Packets

Fall is in full swing, and that means it’s time for all things apple! If you’re an apple lover, it’s the perfect opportunity to start cooking with these delicious fall fruits. In fact, October is National Apple Month, so why not whip up a tasty apple treat on your next camping trip?

Apple crisp is such an easy and delicious dessert, which makes it perfect for camping trips! The cinnamon and sugar go so well with the crisp apples and oat topping in a way that just screams “fall.” But while most apple crisp desserts need to be baked in an oven, this foil packet recipe is easy to make at the campsite and can be cooked over the fire, on a grill, and yes, in a tiny RV oven. You can even prep some of the ingredients at home, which makes this dessert even easier when you’re on the road!

If you’re traveling to a northern state that’s known for apples, stop by an orchard or farm stand and pick up some fresh apples to use in this recipe. But even if you’re heading south for the fall, grocery stores will be brimming with apple choices this time of year. What variety of apples work best with this recipe? Many! Any good baking apple will work great, and some of our favorites include Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, Braeburn, Pink Lady, Fuji and Gala.

So if you’re enjoying the cool weather and sipping on something warm around the campfire, add this recipe to your lineup for a festive fall camping dessert!

If the town’s name and wild past doesn’t convince you that this place is haunted, then a tour through its neighborhoods might turn you into a believer. The Tombstone Gunfighter and Ghost Tour starts at Big Nose Kate’s Saloon, once the elegant Grand Hotel. A stroll down Allen’s street takes tourgoers to sites of some of the bloodiest Old West gunfights; guests are advised to be vigilant for spirit sightings. Of course, the tour includes a stop at the infamous O.K. Corral, the place where lawmen led by Virgil Earp gunned down three outlaws in 30 seconds in 1881.

How to Conserve and Create Power When You’re RV Boondocking

As a society, we love our electricity. It’s difficult to do anything today without using some sort of electricity. If you’re planning to boondock in your RV, you’ll have to bring the power with you or create more of it while you’re there.

So, how long can you boondock before losing power? The answer is up to you. However, if you employ a few smart tricks and invest in the right gear, you can make it a lot longer than you think.

We recently caught up with Mike and Jennifer Wendland, RV enthusiasts and the creators of the popular RV Lifestyle blog, to learn their tips for conserving (and creating) power when boondocking. Check out their advice in the video above and read more tips below, including a few bonus tips from the Wendlands!

Try Doing Things the Old-Fashioned Way

You know, there wasn’t always an electric-powered gadget to do our jobs for us. There was a time when we had to do those jobs manually. Take a look at the things you use most in your RV and investigate how you can do them without power.

Coffee, for example, doesn’t have to be brewed in an electric coffee pot. All you really need to make coffee is boiled water. Invest in a simple coffee dripper. Use your propane stove to boil water (or do it over a campfire if you’re feeling really rustic). Then pour the water through the coffee dripper for the perfect cup of joe.

Your Gear Guide for Fall Camping

Whether you’re hitting the campgrounds on the way to view fall’s fairytale foliage or you’re taking the path less traveled for some quality time with your loved ones, you’re going to need to stock up on gear along the way. Chances are you have a few of the essential items like a water bottle or backpack, but even if you don’t (or you need a new one of each), we have you covered in our gear guide for fall camping.

Camping Tent

Let’s start with the big one and, arguably, the most important one – a tent. Having a plan in place before you hit the campsite goes a long way in setting your trip up for success. The best way to do that? Decide what you’ll be sleeping in before the sun goes down. A solid shelter is ideal for protecting you from the elements while you’re sleeping. No one wants to be cold and uncomfortable, so avoid those complaints by investing in a quality tent.

Coleman Skydome 8-Person Camping Tent With Screen Room

The Coleman Skydome 8-Person Camping Tent checks all those boxes, plus it comes with a screen room. Designed to provide two separate living spaces within one tent, the Skydome features a weatherproof screen room that quickly and easily converts into an additional sleeping area for two people. Don’t need it to sleep, extra people? No worries. Use it for extra storage or lounge space. The entire tent sets up in under five minutes because of pre-attached poles. Speaking of the frame, it can withstand up to 35 mph winds. Nice, right? The WeatherTec system uses a tub-like floor, welded corners, and inverted seams to keep water out. A wider door design makes it easier to move gear like sleeping bags or airbeds in and out without issue. In other words, it’s the perfect choice for your next fall camping adventure.

Sleeping Bag, Cot, or Air Bed

Now that you have nailed down what you’re sleeping under, it’s time to choose what you’ll be sleeping in. Some prefer an air bed or cot, while others are perfectly fine with a sleeping bag. There’s no wrong answer here. As long as you aren’t sleeping directly on the ground, any of the above options should suffice.

Coleman OneSource Heated Sleeping Bag & Rechargeable Battery

If going with a sleeping bag, the Coleman OneSource Heated Sleeping Bag is a solid choice. Perfect for late-season camping, the mummy-shaped bag can keep you warm in temperatures as low as 32-degrees, thanks to its two heating pads. There’s one at the core and one at the foot box, and together they work to distribute heat throughout the sleeping bag. Powered by a rechargeable lithium-ion battery, one charge ranges from 2 hours on high to 4 hours on low. With a ZipPlow zipper, you never have to worry about snagging when opening and closing. Bonus points for being machine-washable once you remove the heating pads, wires, and battery. A convenient stuff sack is also included!
