Family camping vacation spots include a tremendous variety of choices. Family campgrounds are very popular, where families and campers can park their RV, hook up to electricity and running water, and stay as long as they want to, participating in planned activities, and even swimming in the lake or pool. Family campgrounds also offer the opportunity of tent camping for those who would rather be a little bit closer to nature. Typically, the same amenities and activities are available to those staying in tent camping spaces as are offered to everyone else spending their family camping vacation at the campground.
Family camping vacation spots also offer lakeside campgrounds, as well as shady campsites and sunny campgrounds according the the campers’ preferences. Statistics show that 87% of campers enjoy participating in more than one activity planned and provided at family campgrounds. People spending family camping trips with family members usually enjoy the opportunity to play sports and games together. Of adults who enjoy camping, 12% say that their first camping experience was done with members of their immediate family.
Among choices available for family camping vacation spots are camp resorts. A little less rugged, but still offering many opportunities to spend time doing as many outdoor activities as the most discerning camper desires, these types of campgrounds are located in almost every U.S. state. The amenities are mindful of a nice hotel resort, but without the hotel. Camping is still the theme here, as exciting as the guest wants it to be, but relaxing and affordable as well.
Among the many amenities offered by camp resorts are electric and cable hook up, paved roads and pull through sites for campers and RV’s, WiFi, and tent sites. They provide heated restrooms with separate showers, and even dressing rooms. Firewood is provided for guests as well, and laundromats are also located on the premises. Swimming is available, often by way of a heated indoor pool and an outdoor pool as well. Many camping resorts are open year round and offer activities for every season. Canoe and paddle boat rental is usually an option, and even fishing. Kiddie pools, splash parks for kids, tennis courts, and racquetball courts are provided, even lighted and open at night. Among the many other sports and amenities provided at a camp resort are softball fields, basketball courts, game rooms, recreation rooms, shuffleboard, horseshoes, and more. Most of these campsites offer themed weekends and planned activities as well.
Camping amenities are not uncommon to most campgrounds these days. Most family camping vacation spots do offer swimming and water activities, and other sports activities as well. They plan games for families to participate in together, and many, even local camping sites, provide seasonal activities. Statistics show that 70% of camping takes place on public campgrounds where campers, both individuals and families, can take part in activities, games, and special events. The necessary comforts are provided; electricity, running water, and bathrooms with showers; which, all combined, makes for a wonderful and relaxing camping experience.
For families who prefer the tent experience, there are many tent sites for camping. Individuals or families can rent a tent appropriate for the number of people vacationing together, and can choose their preferred location. Popup tents can be rented, as well, and the customers can decide whether they would like to be near amenities, or if they would prefer to go the more rugged path. Locations include mountainous campgrounds, wooded acres, and more. If desired, campers can choose a location close to cypress trees and swamp wetlands where they can rent a canoe for a fishing trip, or go hiking along nature paths. Any location they choose will be safe and secure.
There are limitless possibilities for a family camping trip. Camping has become the number one choice for American families when planning how to spend their vacation. The numerous activities and amenities available draw both individuals and families to try camping for the first time, and then draw them back year after year once they have had the experience.
Whatever type of camping participants prefer, whether tent camping, RV camping, staying in a cabin, or any other type, the typical length of time spent on vacation is about two weeks.
