RV Park Reservation Apps

Hi All, I'm taking a trip to Texas over the holidays. I'm looking for an app or website that will help me make online reservations at RV parks.

Any recommendations?

Thanks!

  • RVParky for route then check Google Earth for access and then Campgroundreviews.com for ratings.
  • As mentioned the reviews on https://www.campgroundreviews.com have links to the campground websites where you can make your reservation.

    You might be able to use https://www.reserveamerica.com to book some state and private parks in Texas but keep in mind for the future that some state & provincial parks have gone over to their own reservation websites, this is one of the reasons I keep a journal with passwords along with other reservation information. :)

  • Use rvparky or campgroundreviews and locate potential RV parks. Then Google those. Most will probably have a web site where can make reservations. Chains like KOA web site makes it easy to both locate a KOA park and make a reservation.
  • All federal operated campgrounds use recreation.gov and their app is the same name. If the campground is operated by a vendor, they may or may not use the app for reservations.

    While not for reservations, we use https://www.ultimatecampgrounds.com/ to find government operated campgrounds. This will include your city, county, state, and federal.

    Unfortunately, there isn't a big single app or website for that most campgrounds use.
  • I don't know of any apps that can readily make reservations at all private RV parks, like the posters above we use a combination of google maps, RV Parky or similar apps, and RV park reviews to determine where we stay. We usually wait until we know for certain how far we re going and then do our search as outlined above, once we have made a choice we call RV park directly to reserve site.
  • Allstays Campgrounds has apps that list both campgrounds and their ratings. I prefer Allstays as it has the most comprehensive listing of both public and private campgrounds.

    Contact info on the campgrounds will take you to reservations.
