Don't let the summer season pass by without taking a vacation in our beautiful country.  See the summer out with an adventure through land you've never explored before in an RV.

This little trip will leave you feeling like you've had a break, seen some country and not wasted the summer. Or if you've already been on a vacation this summer, why not take another, the only thing that's coming is a cold winter!

This trip sees you heading to the Redwood National and State Parks along the coast of Northern California. The park is home to some of the world's tallest trees, crystal clear mist laden streams, vast prairies, miles of beautiful coastline and magnificent oak woodlands.  All of which support a diverse wildlife and culture.  The gorgeous park is definitely a must see.

There are four developed campgrounds - one on the coastline and three in the redwood forest. The campgrounds are perfect for families or just couples traveling in an RV. Definitely make a reservation if you can, (not allowed at the beach campground) as the pretty sites fill up quickly.

The Jedediah Smith Campground is situated among the old redwood grove alongside the wild and scenic Smith River.
Mill Creek Campground has you sleeping beneath age old maples, alders and younger redwoods with access to the pretty Mill Creek.

If the prairies are more your sight of beauty, enjoy the Elk Prairie and ancient coastal redwoods from the Elk Prairie Campground. You may even see an Elk.

Or there's the beach. Gold Bluffs Beach campground lets you experience the wild pacific coastline with easy access to secluded bays and a Fern Canyon.

If you've got enough days to stay, have a change of view and stay in more than one campground while you've got your RV.  It's as easy as driving to the next park - no packing up of tents, airbeds or foldable camping tables needed. 'Hurrah!' I hear you shout?

All sites give amazing access to either the beautiful miles of hikes, swimming in pristine waters - river or beach,  fishing, kayaking and biking trails.

The mist shrouds the morning hikes making an unforgettable experience as the light tries to get through and through the stillness, all you can hear is the trickling creeks or maybe some animal noise.

Paddle the wide oceans or the calmer rivers in a kayak.  Drift through lagoons, harbors and coves of the North Coast looking at greenstone and chert rock sea stacks.

Many bicycle tracks have been formed in the old roads where logging trucks left their mark. Cycle the coastal or creek trails and experience the park from a different angle.

Take the vacation.  Rent an RV and relax for a week (or more) among the trees and beside the water.  Find an RV Rental through RV rental sale finder.

Have a fun trip!
