RV Travel Lets You Control Vacation Costs

If you’re tired of straggling through airports and trying to keep the kids entertained during a cramped flight, if you’re tired of hefty hotel bills that take a huge bite out of your vacation funds, if you tired of spending money on food your kids won’t eat, maybe it’s time you tried RVing. RV vacations are 27% to 61% cheaper than any other type of vacation, according to a study by PKF Consulting, an international travel and tourism consulting firm. Vacationing in an RV combines transportation, hotel and food costs in one neat, cost-efficient package, allowing you to take control of your vacation — and vacation costs.

Travel. Vacationing in an RV gives families room to spread out comfortably while on the road. You can stop to check out local attractions, sample a piece of homemade pie or stop for ice cream along the way. There are no schedules to keep or security lines to get through. And no one arrives at your destination tired and cranky.

Lodging. When you RV, you carry your lodging with you. A night in a comfortable RV campsite costs a fraction of what you’d pay for a night in a hotel. And many RV campgrounds now offer hotel-like amenities such as swimming pools, free WiFi, game rooms, playgrounds and more.

Food. A kitchen stocked your family’s favorite foods and snacks is just steps away when you RV, allowing you to eat healthfully and inexpensively and serve the foods your family likes to eat.
