If you’ve spent any real time out on the road, you know not every RV park’s cut from the same cloth. Some places just feel crammed and uninspired, but every now and then, you stumble onto a campground with real character—maybe even a bit of magic.

RV camping’s come a long way. These days, there’s something for every kind of traveler, whether you’re rolling with the whole family or just sneaking away for a quiet weekend.

You’ll find everything from peaceful, high-end motorcoach resorts packed with amenities to quirky spots that turn glamping into an adventure. Sometimes, you get both comfort and personality in one stop. That’s when RV travel really shines.

A Night at the Movies 🍿

There’s nothing quite like settling in at your site and watching your own outdoor movie under the stars. The Sutherlin / Umpqua Valley KOA Holiday in Oregon keeps its drive-in spirit alive. They light up a giant 100-foot screen a few nights a week, and you can catch a flick while munching on popcorn—yeah, it’s part of the deal.

Honestly, it feels like summer camp for grownups (and kids too).

Tips for the best experience:

• Grab a movie-view site if you want the best seat in the house.
• Pack cozy chairs and a blanket—Oregon nights can get chilly.

Let the dog run at the fenced park or hit the game room before showtime. It’s all about making the evening your own.

You can get more details at the Sutherlin / Umpqua Valley KOA Holiday listing.

Calico Ghost Town Campground

You can park your rig right among the ruins of an 1880s silver mining town at Calico Ghost Town Campground in Yermo, California. Silver prices crashed, the miners left, and the town faded—until folks rebuilt it in the 1950s and opened it to campers like us.

You can pick between dry camping or full hookup RV sites, so whether you travel light or bring all the comforts, there’s a spot for you.

Beyond your site, you’ve got museums, mine tours, quirky shops, and old-school restaurants. Don’t skip the ride on the historic Calico train—it’s a fun throwback.

Come October, the place goes all out for Halloween—costume contests, pumpkin carving, and haunted fun for both families and history buffs.

Oasis RV Park and Golf Course

If you’re after a mellow stay, Oasis RV Park and Golf Course in Ephrata, Washington, might just be your speed. Many of the RV sites sit right by a nine-hole, par-three course, and you can play all day for just $18.

Weekdays tend to be quieter, making it easy to wander from your RV to the greens without a crowd. There’s also a playful 18-hole mini golf course—kids love it, but I’ve seen plenty of adults get competitive out there too.

Amenities include:

• Full and partial hookup RV sites
• Dependable 30-amp electric hookups
• On-site laundry
• Calm outdoor spaces for unwinding

Camp Taylor Campground

Camp Taylor Campground in Columbia, New Jersey, feels tucked away from the world. Towering trees, a clear swimming lake, and easy boat rentals set a peaceful tone.

You can step right onto the Appalachian Trail for a hike or a slow nature walk. The on-site Lakota Wolf Preserve draws a lot of folks. Guides share stories during tours, and you might spot bobcats or foxes too.

Elk Country RV Resort

Park your RV beneath Northern California’s redwoods at Elk Country RV Resort in Trinidad. Roosevelt Elk roam the meadows, and sometimes you’ll wake up to them grazing right outside your window.

You can choose between two main areas:

There’s kayaking, paddleboarding, and mountain biking nearby. The sunsets here—well, you really have to see them for yourself.

Turpentine Creek Wildlife Refuge

At Turpentine Creek Wildlife Refuge in Eureka Springs, Arkansas, you can park your RV close enough to hear big cats roaring at sunset. The small RV area offers water and electric hookups, so you won’t have to rough it.

Your stay helps support the care of tigers, leopards, bobcats, and bears. That’s a pretty good feeling, honestly.

Activities you can enjoy:

• Daily walking tours through the sanctuary
• Trolley rides for easy viewing
• Evenings surrounded by Arkansas woods

Harvest Hosts

With Harvest Hosts, you can swap crowded campgrounds for peaceful nights at wineries, breweries, farms, and small businesses all over North America. You just park your RV, meet the locals, and soak up a little homegrown hospitality.

Membership Options

I’ve parked at alpaca farms, wandered through air museums, and even spent a night above an active salt mine. A Harvest Hosts membership usually costs less than a couple nights at a regular park, but you’ll remember these stops long after you’ve driven on.

Mystic Hot Springs

So, you’re looking for a spot that’s both laid-back and a little quirky? Mystic Hot Springs in Monroe, Utah, really nails that vibe. I’ve soaked here more than once, and let me tell you, it’s hard to beat the combo of comfort and rustic charm.

You’ll find two concrete heated pools on the property. Six old-school cast iron tubs sit nearby, all filled with mineral-rich hot springs water. The warm water flows straight from underground, keeping things toasty no matter the season.

If you’re rolling in with your rig, the RV area has you covered. They built pull-through sites that handle rigs up to 40 feet, which is honestly pretty generous.

From March to October, each site gives you full hookups—water, sewer, and electric. Just pull in, connect, and you’re good to go.

Here’s a quick rundown:

If you like live music, you’ll probably dig this place even more. Mystic Hot Springs hosts live performances all year—sometimes small concerts, sometimes a full-blown music festival on three outdoor stages.

After the show, you just stroll back to your RV. It’s a short walk, and honestly, it feels pretty great to kick back after a night of good tunes.

Not a bad way to end the day, right?
