Camping conjures up childhood images of sitting around a roaring campfire, toasting marshmallows, and swatting mosquitoes. Then there is the stumbling around in the dark with a flashlight trying to find an outhouse at 2AM. Take a peek at todays camping and youll notice its much more luxurious and much less like a Boy Scout jamboree than you might remember.
Todays camper, be it in a tent or a deluxe RV want and receive more amenities than ever before. Gone are the mom and pop style campgrounds with a few ping pong tables and a pond to swim in. Today campgrounds advertise themselves as resorts. The campgrounds of today offer luxury amenities without the luxury prices.
Modern campgrounds offers heated pools, water-park type features, live music and other entertainment for children and adults, hot tubs and Jacuzzis, big screen movies with hot buttered popcorn, and free shuttle service to local attractions. Want a table at a local restaurant at seven? Many of todays campgrounds offer concierge service to their guests. Need a ride back to your site after a night on the town? More and more campgrounds are offering on-call taxi services. Need Wi-Fi? Youve got it. Even some of the most remote campgrounds offer free Wi-Fi service.
Certainly youll still find arcades for the kids, crafts, theme days, and bingo, but todays traveler wants and demands more and campground owners have listened to their demands. "The essential to budget travel is to approach onward. When it happens to family trips, globetrotting, well-deserved trips and/or going to see new spots we have never been before, the fact of cost and budgeting is always in the back of our thoughts. Preparation and spending our travel budget properly is a priority for most families. Curbing consuming and fees, while still taking pleasure in your vacation to its fullest, is the key to certain achievements and fiscal responsibility. Your pocketbook and family will thank you! The thinking regarding saving money while travelling is simple: Even if your personal finances is incredibly limited, you can still take a break and enjoy life! Simply put, life is just too short to never step out of the door or leaving the homestead! Also thinking about that while traveling, whether on a finances or not, even the smallest of things can all add op to a huge vacation or travel bill!..". While amenities do often increase the daily or weekly fee at campgrounds if you look at the cost of a hotel or motel in Maine during the summer season youll see camping can be much less expensive with many more frills and much less roughing it compared to even a decade ago. A large number of campgrounds even offer RV, cabin, and cottage rentals.
For a great list of Maine campgrounds visit Camp Maine. According to the Maine Campground Owners Association June is Great Outdoors Month. For the month of June participating campgrounds are giving out free day passes to state parks and historic sites.
Maybe it is time to revisit camping in 2011.
