Hello from AllCampgrounds!
The time between Christmas and New Years is perhaps the slowest point for camping all year, so we like to use this time to relax, unwind, and take a look back at the interesting and exceptional things we’ve discovered in the world of tent camping and RV camping.
2011 was a banner year for major developments in the national camping scene, and also saw the arrival of several outstanding resources that campers can use for trip planning.
Here’s a quick retrospective, AllCampgrounds style. (more…)

Hello and welcome back to AllCampgrounds!
You know, as much as we all love camping, it’s a fact that just about nobody spends the holiday season in the wilds: you have to come in for all the celebrations, even if you spent all kinds of time building your own igloo to extend the camping season that much longer!
But that doesn’t mean that we just forget about camping or that there aren’t any campers on our holiday shopping list.
So, today, we’ll look at some ideas for those who are doing last-minute holiday shopping (or early New Year shopping) for campers of all kinds. (more…)

December is upon us, so it’s time to look ahead to some of the great features we plan to roll out over the new year.
If you’re a new reader, it might surprise you to know the AllCampgrounds blog has over 100 posts covering all kinds of tent camping and RV camping topics, dating back to 2008.
In fact, the AllCampgrounds camping directory, has been around for more than ten years!
You might think we’ve done everything in that time, but there’s always more to see and do when it comes to camping! (more…)

Hello and welcome to AllCampgrounds!
As we head into December, it’s the time of year most folks associate with a lull in camping.
Since our goal is to promote tent camping and RV camping all year around, we thought we’d take this chance to remind our newer readers about all our regular features.
In the last few weeks, we’ve talked a lot about winter camping, but AllCampgrounds has a range of news and articles to offer everyone!
Here’s a brief recap.

Welcome back to AllCampgrounds!
You know, for the holidays, even hardcore tent campers like us have to come indoors for turkey, ham, stuffing, and all the rest.
Just a bit ago, we discussed some things we’re thankful for in the camping world.
Now, as we snooze off another terrific holiday meal, it’s time to look ahead to the peak of the winter holiday season and ask: just what would AllCampgrounds want from Camping Santa this year?
Join us for a little more holiday fun, won’t you?

Welcome back to AllCampgrounds!
Last week’s visit had us combing through some of the best sites on the web for winter camping.
Of course, winter camping makes for some of the best and most challenging opportunities for backcountry adventures, but you have to know your stuff!
Likewise, not everyone wants to trek into the “deep freeze” to enjoy the outdoors during winter.
So today’s post will highlight trusted parks and camp grounds that are open all winter long; both chilly and warm, to suit everyone’s tastes.
Tent campers and RV campers alike will find something to whet their camping appetite!
