Hi all some friends of mine and myself are planning on taking a road trip through the east coast this summer. We’re thinking sometime in June I believe. We are starting from Michigan and ending in Maine. On the way there we would like to go through Ohio, Pennsylvania, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, and then finally to Maine. And on the way home, we would like to go through Vermont and New York.
We are planning on camping the majority of the trip, which is why we waited until mid June or so, so the weather is hopefully up to par for camping.
I’m curious if anyone has any suggestions? Maybe good campgrounds, or when weather is best, or great places to visit in those areas? Anything at all really would be helpful, as I know nothing about the east coast. We are only making this a week or so trip, so we don’t have too much time to spend everywhere. Maine is our focus, so we will spend the most time there.
Thanks for any advice or any information at all. It all helps!!
My wife and I recently moved down here from Washington, and miss being able to drive an hour in any direction and be out in the woods with nobody around for miles. We’re looking for an area where we can just go and set up our tent, let the dogs run, do some target practice with our guns, and be alone. So far all we’ve experienced is campgrounds where we have to worry about the big RVs "camping" in the spots on either sides of us.
I am a young adult female that is planning to take an extended road trip this summer. Beginning along the west coast, see Yosemite, Portland, Seattle, travel up into Canada go to Vancouver, the sea to sky drive, eventually get over to Yellowstone.
I am looking for any advice, tips and recommendations for this adventure. As far as what to bring, where to stay, what to eat and any dang thing that you feel may assist my travels. After Yellowstone I am out of places to add to my agenda, I just need to end up back in Arizona.
I will be traveling with just my dog (depending on the border policies).
I’ve done a fair share of solo camping but nothing to this extent.
Also, I will be tent camping and any advice on how to save money throughout the trip would be very helpful!
Thank you
Yes I plan to stay in designated campgrounds only, preferably reserved beforehand. Probably a hotel in Vancouver to experience the city. In the end I will have the entire route including dates I will be at each location, which I will give to my family and roommates.
I have friends in quite a few places along the route as well.
A group of us are going to road trip the east coast. I live in Michigan. We’re planning on going the following route: Michigan > Pennsylvania > Connecticut > Massachusetts > New Hampshire > Maine > Vermont > New York > Michigan.
I believe we’re going the beginning/middle of June 2010 and plan on finding campgrounds to stay at rather than hotels.
If anyone has any advice or neat things about any of those states, weather, campgrounds around there, or ANYTHING AT ALL please let me know! I don’t know ANYTHING about the east coast soo I’m going into this trip blind but excited
Thanks a bunch!
I mean michigan to OHIO then to Penn.
What are some ideas for going to california and not renting a hotel?
Me and two friends are going on vacation to california this summer, but we don’t want to rent a hotel because we are cheap.
I was thinking something like buying a tent and finding some campgrounds, but i dont know.
We’re taking a ford focus so we don’t have enough room to sleep in the car really.
What are some ideas for places to sleep and shower in california without renting a hotel?

me and my friends are planning to leave on the 22nd of aug and come back on the 24th. we are looking for some place to rent a cabin…hopefully a secluded are right near the wilderness..we live in new york city so we want to get away from the city rush and just hang out somewhere quiet. we would like to go somewhere within a 6-7 hour driving range. we usually go to jim thorpe campgrounds in pa but getting tired of that. we like to go hiking too. we checked out a couple of places on reserve america but they were already reserved for the dates we plan to go.so if any of you know some good places to rent a cabin, hike, bbq, drink beer and just have a good time please let me know. thanks a lot.
My husband and I are experienced day hikers, but now we’re looking to get away for a few days and simply backpack, no campgrounds, no modern effects. We live in Ohio and have about a week of vacation to burn. We have time to drive as far as South Carolina, New England, etc. We are looking to do this at the beginning of May. I’ve looked at Linville Gorge in North Carolina, Mt. Marshall also in North Carolina, and a couple places in Virginia. Thanks a lot for any advice!!!
We’ll be driving from Lethbridge to Phoenix, and want to do it as cheap as possible…
We’ll be going through Montana, Idaho, Utah, and Nevada.
Are there any places to stay besides hotels that might be cheaper? Campgrounds, or somewhere we could tent, or hostels, or even a cheap motel? We’re open to just about anything.
Thanks! =)
Does anyone know of campgrounds that are open this time of the year, my brothers are going camping this weekend and they found out the one they wanted to go to was closed. they want to go somewhere with high elevation, idk why. they also mentioned wanting to camp near the grandcanyon. So can anyone please help me find a camp ground they can go to? also they dont want to camp in or around sedona.
I am looking to plan a camp trip up to North California on a lake… Does anyone know of any good campgrounds that aren’t too rocky on the lake. I was looking at Shasta and Davis but I couldn’t find any information on prices or what allowed and not….
