Your Urban RV Camping Guide

Urban camping in an RV can be a convenient and cost-effective way to explore cities while still having all the comforts of home. However, you do need to make sure you’re fully prepared for taking your RV into a city. Here are some tips for making the most of urban RV camping trips.

Research Campgrounds

Look for RV parks or campgrounds located within or near the city you plan to visit. Make sure they have the amenities you need, such as electricity, water, and sewer hookups.

Plan Your Route

Consider traffic patterns and parking restrictions when planning your route to the campground. Look for RV-friendly routes that avoid low bridges or narrow streets.

Check Local Regulations

Some cities have specific rules and regulations regarding RV parking. Make sure you are aware of any restrictions or permits required for urban camping.

Be Mindful of Noise

When staying in an urban area, be considerate of your neighbors. Keep noise levels down, especially at night, and follow campground rules regarding quiet hours.

Use Public Transport

Take advantage of public transportation options to explore the city without having to drive your RV through busy streets. Many cities have convenient public transportation systems that can take you to popular attractions.

Secure Your RV

Urban areas can have higher crime rates, so be sure to lock your RV when you are away and keep valuables out of sight. Consider using security devices such as wheel locks or alarms to deter theft.
