- $20-$40 a night for a private CG is unheard of in my area.
Starting price for a private CG is in the $60.00 range Crowe wrote:

LOL! When was the last time you stayed in a hotel???
Market forces. With so many people buying RVs during COVID it's only natural that prices for sites will rise due to more competition from users.
While $80-100 is too high, hotels that aren't total fleabag places start around $125.
Basically, unless you have a specific reason to go to an expensive campground, there are plenty available in the $20-40/n range.buc1980 wrote:

USFS camp sites are half price with a senior card.
RV prices are all over the place. I rarely use them.
Still cheaper than other vacations and trips. ferndaleflyer wrote:
OK---maybe I didn't push the button. Thought it might be because I named Yogi Bear as the place.

- The price of a night's stay shouldn't surprise any of us. Remember two years ago when everyone and his cousin bought a new RV? Now they want to go camping, but the supply of camp spots hasn't kept pace with the demand from new campers.
I suppose the silver lining is that market conditions are pushing a lot of those new buyers out of the arena, so the demand should calm back down. ferndaleflyer wrote:
Well, I see my post was removed. Guess someone couldn't stand the truth. This morning I was quoted around $190 a night + tax etc at a campground in MD for 4 days in October 2023.

….. Last night we camped in NV ( no hook ups, just bathroom with nice hot showers ) at a ranch, they just asked for a donation ( we put in $5 )….Animals & stargazing…. Tonight it’s free at a WMA with clean vault toilet, fire ring, table, water…. A little bit of searching and willing to live without FHU & there you go…..
This is one reason I moved to Nevada and for the fishing in California but no desire to live in that _______ state. Cheers to the brave.
https://ibb.co/SBJP2dY- Recently I joined up with some friends at a fancy RV park in the wine country of California. It cost $75 a night and I could not wait to leave.
An RV park is okay of a night to recharge some batteries and take a shower. I like USFS campground and boondocking.
