Campground availability on shorter notice

I had noticed that RV parks were not as busy as they have been in the recent past. As evidence of this we called a resort we have been going to for years and they had more than 6 sites available for October. This happens to be in an area where October is the high season. In the past we made reservations a year in advance due to high demand.

    And overall inflation causing many to curb their travel plans. More people may actually have found they need to back to work.



    And if folks have looked at their 401K or other investments lately they probably are still cleaning out their drawers.

    We are over two months into a six
    month trip & so far availability without reservations has been very easy.

    Currently on fourth night of what was expected to be a high demand CG in Newfoundland at the height of the iceberg season.

    It has never been over 50% capacity. Nothing but Canadian tags seen.
