What Campgound Booking Sites do you use?
« on: August 15, 2024, 06:09:29 AM »
I just saw an ad about a campground booking site called ARVIE. Once you enter your information into the system, you can book campground sites all over the U.S. However, not all campgrounds are in their system, just like all campground booking sites.

The interesting thing with their site is that if a campground in their system is full, it will continue checking for cancellations and book you into that site in the campground and alert you.  This is the first time I have heard of a system like this.  Their website is https://arvie.com/.

Has anyone tried this website? I think it costs $19.95 per month to become a member.

Has anyone used other websites or apps to book campgrounds, or do you just wing it like I do?   What are your thoughts, or do you just keep your bus parked in your driveway like some people I know?  ;D

We use 3 main sources;

Trucker Path / Guides / GPS to find truck stops & rest areas for overnighting.

Big Rig Best Bets.  We like their research that goes into the guide:

And as I've mentioned; we're now using Harvest Hosts (BCM advertiser) and liking it very much so far!

We are really excited for our upcoming stay at Benton Family Farms in Kentucky via Harvest Hosts.  For very low cost (electricity if we use it) plus a gift store purchase, we are camping in a huge Kentucky farm.  What a hoot!

Take care all, Phil
