What RV camping costs
Our disclosed nightly-rate estimate bands, and how to use them.
Parks in our data set do not publish per-night rates, so Open RV Parks plans trips with editorial estimate bands by hookup level. These are our own planning figures, not quotes, and the same bands power the trip planner:
| Hookup level | Typical nightly rate (estimate) |
|---|---|
| Basic & Rustic | $15 to $35 |
| Established Parks | $30 to $60 |
| Full Hookup Parks | $45 to $85 |
Why rates vary
Season, rig size, site position, and length of stay all move the price. Waterfront or pull-through sites usually cost more than the base rate, monthly stays usually cost less per night, and popular corridors surge in summer. The only number that counts is the one the park quotes you for your dates.
Budgeting a trip
Multiply your nights by the top of the band for the hookup level you want and you will rarely be surprised. The trip planner does this for you across every suggested stop and shows a range instead of a single wishful number.
