State Campgrounds on Florida’s East Coast

November 14th, 2011 by admin No comments »

With all the attractions Florida has to offer, it becomes hard at times to decide which one you may want to do. If the beach is what you are looking for, I recommend camping at one of the State Campgrounds listed below.

Gamble Rodgers Campground at Flagler Beach on A1A is a campground with only thirty four lots. Twenty four of these lots will accommodate any size camper while the rest is best suited for tents, popups, and small campers. Half the lots back up to the Atlantic ocean with most of these having a wonderful view of the ocean. On the North side of the campground is a park with a public beach and picnic area. The ranger station is located on the west side of A1A where there is a picnic area, nature trails, and a boat ramp with access to the Intracoastal Waterway. There is nowhere to ride a bike except on the highway. However, it is only three miles into Flagler Beach which is a good but short bike ride. Gamble Rodgers is an excellent place for the beach lover; however, getting a reservation during beach weather can be hard to do.

Sebastian Inlet State Park located in Melbourne on A1A is divided into two separate parts. South of the inlet is the campground which has over fifty lots that will accommodate most any size camper. Fourteen of these sites have an excellent view of the Sebastian Inlet. This campground is excellent for the fisherman as well as the beach lover. The boat ramp allows for easy access to the Indian River as well as the Atlantic Ocean. Fishing is allowed along the shores of the Inlet as well as the small docks located along the inlet. A short walk east of the campground is the Atlantic Ocean with beautiful beaches for swimming, surfing, and fishing. On the north side of the inlet there is a great place for the younger children to swim in the inlet where there are no currents or surf and the water is shallow. On the ocean side one will find bait and tackle shop, concession stand, bathhouse, and a jetty for fishing. » Read more: State Campgrounds on Florida’s East Coast

Top 12 Yellowstone National Park Campgrounds

November 12th, 2011 by admin No comments »

When it comes to national parks, Yellowstone National Park tops the charts. Yellowstone is unique in many different ways. Many people are not aware that it is the first national park ever founded in the United States.

The park was first established on March 1, 1872. Another interesting fact was that it was one of the favored camping spots of former President Theodore Roosevelt. The Yellowstone National Park campgrounds are renowned for their economical benefits and the unspoiled atmosphere that they reside in.

There are a total of 12 Yellowstone National Park campgrounds, seven of which are maintained by the park organization. Therefore, the check-in and check-out times, as well as the rules are similar for most of the campgrounds in the park. For those who are die-hard fans of simple living, the only way to stay at the park is to camp. It is also much more affordable to take advantage of the outdoor spots rather than hotels.

Keep in mind that there are no overflow camping spots in the park, so it is best to make reservations ahead of time. If you do go to the park on a spontaneous whim and the campgrounds are all full, there are campgrounds located outside of the park close by. You should also be aware that the park strictly prohibits camping in your car, in picnic areas, or any other location that is not designated as a campground. » Read more: Top 12 Yellowstone National Park Campgrounds
