RV Camping From Thanksgiving to Christmas

From endless cooking to hanging up the holiday decorations, some people don’t enjoy the thrill of holiday preparation and want to get to the fun festivities. Ditch the tradition of holidays at home and celebrate the season with an RV camping trip! Let our team from Rjourney show you festive tips on how to make the most of camping from Thanksgiving to Christmas.

Choosing the Right Thanksgiving and Christmas RV Park

There are plenty of winter RV destinations across the country to choose from. Perhaps you need an escape from the dipping temperatures. Then we’d recommend somewhere more south, like Texas or Louisiana

If you want to embrace the cold, we recommend you camp this Christmas close to a city such as Denver, which has resources and places to explore.

Having a Thanksgiving Dinner Outdoors

An RV campground is a fun, unique place to host your Thanksgiving meal. Try to cook whatever food you can beforehand to streamline the preparation process. Check if your campsite has electricity in case any sports fans want to watch holiday games on TV.

Watch out for the weather, and bring a camping canopy with you so your festivities don’t get interrupted by a little drizzle. Do you want to add your dish to the potluck? There are plenty of simple winter recipes to make in your RV to add more pizzazz to your meal.

RV Christmas Decorations

Once the dishes are cleaned from Thanksgiving dinner, it’s time to pivot your attention to Christmas. Put up some RV Christmas decorations to make you and your family jolly. Find decorations that easily hang on walls or are placed on countertops. Keep the decorations simplistic, if not minimalistic, to avoid extensive cleanup. 

RV Camp Christmas Tree

Arguably, the most important Christmas decoration for them all is the tree! Even on the road, there are ways to make a camp Christmas tree a part of your holiday experience. 

One way to incorporate a tree into your RV camping decor is with a tabletop tree that fits comfortably on a counter or desk. You can even opt for a treelike decoration, such as a wreath or strand, and place your gifts underneath that!

Activities To Do During Holiday RV Camping

As the great outdoors is at your disposal, there’s no reason why the colder temperatures and holiday schedule should stop you from venturing around the campsite and enjoying some winter camping activities. Here are some of our favorite winter pastimes to enjoy on your trip.

  • Snowboarding
  • Cross-country skiing
  • Tubing
  • Hiking
  • Bird- or animal-watching
  • Snowball fights
  • Snowmobile rides
