When You Just Need a Quick Rest

Not every overnight stay necessitates connecting your camper to external hookups.

Maybe it takes a few days to drive to your destination, for example. You'll be spending most of the day traveling and only need somewhere to park your camper while the driver(s) sleep.

Here, boondocking becomes a great option!

You'll save money if your stay doesn't involve using external utilities, and you can explore a wider range of potential spots to spend the night. In addition to standard campgrounds, there are various places that allow RVs to stay the night, such as retail outlets or casinos.

When There Are More RV Campers Than Available Hookups

A given venue may provide enough spots for a large crowd to park their camper, but many of those spots may not contain any hookups at all.

For example, RV campgrounds often include sites that provide hookup access as well as sites that are dedicated boondocking sites. This means that even if you’re not able to visit your preferred campground at your preferred time, you could potentially still access hookups. Instead of needing to change your destination or your travel schedule, you can just plan on boondocking.

Additionally, large events usually mean more travelers than available hookups. From rallies to concerts, you might only be able to attend if you are willing to go boondocking.

When You Want to Save Money

Boondocking is great for those wanting to keep their budget small. You'll still get to enjoy the comforts of your camper and the fun of traveling, but without spending as much money. By saving money now, you'll be able to enjoy more vacations later on!
