If you are thinking of renting an RV and heading to a state park in California, well, plan ahead. Book a campsite now because reservations open up 6 months in advance, and at some of the most popular state parks, they are booked solid all. the. time.
That’s the single best piece of advice I can give. Book your campsite reservation ASAP. Then you can fill in the blanks on renting an RV, scheduling time off work, planning meals and all the other fun stuff that getting ready to camp means.
Step 1. Pick some dates you want to camp. If you want to camp somewhere that is always booked, you need to look at your calendar for exactly 6 months in advance, which day you want to book. For example, if you want to camp August 15th-August 19th at Half Moon Bay State Park, you will have to get on the Reserve California website at 8am on February 15th, to have a chance to book those dates.
Step 2. Confirm that RVSupreme.com has a Sprinter available on those dates. You can submit a restoration inquiry on our Reseveration page.
Step 3. Head over to Reserve California, and start searching for dates at state parks. Depending on where you want to travel, you may have better luck booking a site less than six months out. But, for example, Half Moon Bay State Park at Francis Beach is consistently booked full six months to the day in advance.
Step 3. Make sure you book the right type of campsite for your trip. If you are traveling in an RV, you will want a Hook Up Campsite, which means you there is an electrical hook up for an RV. Each state park has different amenities. Half Moon Bay State Park has showers and bathrooms, and a waste dump at the exit. Other parks have waste dumps at each camp site.
Step 4. Confirm and pay for your reservation. Don’t wait, the spots often sell out. You can cancel later, and will only be charged the service fee.
Step 5. Book your RV with RVSupreme.com. And make sure you’ve got the days off of work if needed!
