- [Best Times to Go Camping: A Month-by-Month Guide by Region](https://rjourney.com/blog/best-times-go-camping/): The best times to go camping depend on where you point the rig. Spring and fall are the safest bets almost everywhere, because shoulder seasons trade peak-season crowds for mild weather and open sites. Summer rules the high country and the Great Lakes. Winter belongs to the Gulf Coast and the desert. Below is a month-by-month read of five regions, with an RJourney park in each so you can see how the seasons play out on the ground. Last verified October 20, 2026.
- [Route 66 RV Trip Itinerary: Chicago to Santa Monica by Segment](https://rjourney.com/blog/route-66-rv-trip-itinerary/): A Route 66 RV trip covers roughly 2,400 miles across 8 states, and 15 days at about 160 miles a day lets you see it without white-knuckling it.

- [Are Mountain Lions Dangerous? Trail and Campsite Safety in the West](https://rjourney.com/blog/are-mountain-lions-dangerous-trail-campsite-safety/): Are mountain lions dangerous? Technically yes, and practically almost never. A mountain lion is an ambush predator that takes down elk and deer, so it could hurt you. It also avoids people, and attacks on humans are rare enough that fatal ones across all of North America run to a few dozen over more than a century.

- [Seasonal Camping Contracts: What to Read Before You Sign for 2027](https://rjourney.com/blog/seasonal-camping-agreement-2027/): A seasonal camping agreement covers a lot more than the site rate. It sets your season dates, who's allowed to stay with you, what happens to your rig once you pull out, and what you forfeit if your plans change. Priority Enrollment for returning seasonal guests closes September 30, and Open Enrollment opens the site to new guests October 1. Before you call the front desk, here's what the agreement itself actually covers.

- [RV Park vs Campground vs RV Resort: What’s the Difference?](https://rjourney.com/blog/rv-park-vs-campground/): An RV park is a commercial property built for the rig: gravel or paved sites, full hookups, and easy in-and-out access, usually close to a highway. A campground is built around the setting first, with wooded or waterfront sites, fire rings, and room for tents alongside RVs. An RV resort takes the RV park model and stacks amenities on top: pools, clubhouses, planned activities, and staff whose whole job is your stay.
- [Travel Nurse Housing: The RV Park Option](https://rjourney.com/blog/travel-nurse-housing/): This guide covers what travel nurse housing costs at an RV park, how monthly stays line up with contract timelines, and which RJourney parks sit within commuting range of hospital hubs.
- [Best RV Winter Camping Destinations: Gulf Beaches, Desert Light and Ski Country](https://rjourney.com/blog/best-rv-winter-camping-destinations/): Winter splits RVers into 2 camps. One points the rig south in November and chases mild mornings to the Gulf. The other stays put, skirts the rig, and gets the campground to itself. Both are right, and the best RV winter camping destinations serve each kind: warm coasts, quiet desert, and a couple of places where the snow is the attraction. Here's where winter camping works across RJourney's parks, region by region.

- [RV Winter Storage: Costs, Options & Parks That Offer It](https://rjourney.com/blog/rv-winter-storage/): You've got 3 real options. Haul it home and negotiate with your HOA.
