When you want to escape from the busyness of daily life, there are many camping locations near me that offer both convenience and rugged beauty. You can choose to camp in a park with plenty of amenities and campsites for RV hookups, or rough it in the backcountry on wilderness lands managed by state agencies. You can find a campsite in the woods surrounded by rolling hills, tranquil waterways, or picturesque vineyards. You can also choose to camp within a city or town for a unique, urban adventure.
For example, in the San Francisco area, Francis Beach Campground is a gorgeous campground with RV sites and tent sites that is tucked away amongst cypress tree groves with unrivaled views of the Golden Gate Bridge and the ocean. Another favorite is Kirby Cove in Mount Tamalpais State Park, which offers a collection of cute wooden cabins that can be rented for overnight stays, as well as an RV site or tent site for those who want to sleep outdoors.
Dispersed camping, where you pitch your own tent without a formal campground, is often permitted on national forest lands. However, rules and regulations on this type of camping can vary widely from place to place. You should always read reviews on Campendium, and contact the agency responsible for the land you’re interested in to learn more.
New York is home to a wide variety of camping locations, from secluded wilderness campsites in the Adirondacks to coastal campgrounds along the shores of Lake Erie and Niagara Falls. You can also visit the Catskill Mountains, where you’ll find hiking trails, fishing, kayaking, and a myriad of other activities.
