We have the pleasure of working with lots of folks in the realm of offering and providing terrific sporting travel. One of our long-term business associates has been rolling across the country exploring our nations camping and RV travel venues. He’s having a ball and via regular reporting sharing the fun and wonderment of RV travel. 

Founder and bon vivant Chris Pipes has spent his entire career in the hospitality business with some of the most highly regarded resorts in the world. 

To name a few: The Broadmoor, The Greenbrier, Opryland Hotel and most recently the sales and marketing manager for esteemed sporting destinations as The High Lonesome Ranch and Deep Water Cay. 

If you enjoy travel fun and adventure (and we do know you do) we think you’d enjoy following these trips and reading the occasional reports from PipesTraveler Visit the site via this link, enter your email address and let the fun begin! 

Expect a certain whimsy with tips, photos and reviews of all things RV travel.  Chris along with the “current” Mrs. Pipes as he refers to his wife of 43 years will entertain you with their finds along the rambling path. Shag dancing in North Myrtle Beach, sipping bourbon along the Kentucky Bourbon Trail, or golfing along the Robert Trent Jones Golf Trail – its a jaunty trip.

Top 4 Reasons to Take your Family on an RV Vacation https://openroadrvs.com/top-4-reasons-to-take-your-family-on-an-rv-vacation https://openroadrvs.com/top-4-reasons-to-take-your-family-on-an-rv-vacation#respond Thu, 19 Apr 2018 03:29:22 +0000 https://openroadrvs.com/?p=182 One of the most exciting topics in my family, is the topic of where to spend our next vacation.  This conversation also […]

One of the most exciting topics in my family, is the topic of where to spend our next vacation.  This conversation also adds a level of disagreement and possibly a little argument.  When everyone can’t agree on a cool place to visit or site to see, it can be hard to plan a vacation.  That’s when I got the idea to look into some options to visit multiple locations during one vacation to satisfy all family members.  After searching online for options, I came across RV rentals.  I went to all family members, giving them a region of the US, and asked them to choose one place each that they would like to visit.  After compiling the list, (and throwing one in for myself), I began to map out the trek.  The total trip would take 10 days, 2000 miles, and lots of great family time.  We drove and visited places all over the southeastern US.  We were able to see the coastlines of South Carolina, Georgia, and Florida along with the Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina, Tennessee, and Virginia.  There was laughter, fun, games, and joking throughout the trip.  If you have ever thought about renting an RV for the family or just looking to plan the next vacation, here are a few reasons why RV rentals make awesome family vacations:
 
  1. Multiple cities, sites and places to see during the vacation. When traveling to various hotels by rental car, it can get very tiring to haul luggage in and out of cars up to hotel rooms, just to check out the next morning.  With an RV, your hotel is your RV.  All you have to do is reserve an RV camp spot, hook up the RV, and you have an instant hotel.
  2. Lots of great family time. With all the busy things that go on in each other’s lives, it easy to forget to spend time with family.  When the whole family is together in an RV, it just seems like such cohesion and great bonding time.  Look for a nice and comfortable RV where everyone can relax well and just have a great time.
  3. Cost is less than a regular vacation. When booking hotel rooms, plane tickets, car rentals, or just using your own car, it can get very expensive to take the family on vacation.  When renting an RV, you have the cost of the RV per day plus a small amount to rent the RV campsite each night.  The travel and lodging gets very inexpensive compared to regular vacations.  That way, you just have to worry about food, drinks and gas outside of the rental expense.
  4. Make new friends and meet great people. At many campgrounds, it is very easy to strike up conversations with neighboring RVs.  There are people from all over the country (and world in some cases) to meet and maybe have a drink or s’mores with at the fire ring.

  These are some of the main reasons why I would recommend an RV rental vacation for a family.  There are many great things along the journey to see, hear, and taste.  Best of all, it is shared with the entire family while everyone is together enjoying each other’s company.

Stretching over 60 miles from the tiny fishing village of Little River, SC, down to the historic Georgetown, SC, The Grand Strand as many call it, is one of the most popular tourist destinations in the Southeast. 

People come from all over for a relaxing vacation filled with family, fun, golf, beach going, or just plain sightseeing. 
 
Many of these visitors enjoy traveling with their RVs to utilize one of the several campground accommodations in the area. In fact, campgrounds account for around 10% of all accommodations in the Grand Strand area.
 
For an area that attracts several million visitors per year, Myrtle Beach boasts as one of the most RV friendly vacation areas in the nation.  Here are 5 reasons why you should consider visiting Myrtle Beach with your RV:

1. White Sandy Beaches – The Grand Strand area holds some of the best sand along the Atlantic coast line. With the coast line running from southwest to northwest, the wave patterns bring in a nice sand mix with a very wide area of beach front to enjoy.  Many campgrounds are directly on the ocean with several ocean front campsites.  Doesn’t get much better than to sleep with waves 100 yards from your motorhome or travel trailer!

2. Family Friendly Attractions – With everything from Broadway at the Beach to the famous MB Skywheel, Myrtle Beach holds many fun attractions to offer families with or without kids. Several shopping areas, water parks, amusement parks, and mini-golfs fill the area and new ones continue to be added constantly.  Several performing shows or acts are available at places such as the Alabama Theatre or the Carolina Opry.

3. Golf – If you enjoy the regular or the occasional round of golf, you will have numerous course options to choose from. With over 100 courses, there is certainly a course that meets your criteria from budget to playing level.  And with all the mini-golf courses, there is a good opportunity to work on those putting skills while the family is all together having a great time!

 4. Dining – The Grand Strand area has over 300 dining options along the coastline which offer everything from southern-fusion cuisine to all-you-can-eat crab legs to a good ol’ fried sea food platter. The many options allow you to plan and budget according to what works best for you and your family. 

 

5. Nightlife Fun – The Myrtle Beach area is filled with fun when the sun goes down. Whether you are in the Surfside Beach area enjoying the band on the fishing pier, or in the Celebrity Square area of Broadway at the Beach dancing the night away, you have many options to choose from.

Spring RV season in North Carolina is here!

Spring and summer vacations are being planned! Have you ever thought about a North Carolina RV Rental?  Trying to decide the best way to make it to your destination? As someone who has done quite a bit of road tripping and flying in their life, here are 4 reasons why renting an RV is simply a better option than flying, especially if your planning a vacation to North Carolina, and not just during the summertime. 1. It’s more cost efficient. Renting an RV is more cost efficient than flying. You can definitely take the whole family without having to worry about your plane tickets adding up. Since the RV includes room and board, you don’t have to worry about booking a place to stay, unloading luggage, or fitting your schedule to a hotel’s check in and out times. Also, whether you rent an RV or travel trailer, you have a vehicle to drive around in too! There’s no need to pay for a rental car. Finally, you won’t be forced to eat every meal out. You can easily bring and make food in your own space, which always helps keep the cost down. It is quite literally an all inclusive deal! 2. It’s less hassle. This is a big one. You will always be on your own time. No waking up and rushing everyone to the airport. No worrying about where your bags are or what flight you are on. No standing in line at check-in, security, boarding, or baggage claim. Let’s not forget the major issue with flying, layovers, layovers, and more layovers. Again, you can do things on your own time and not be told whether or not you can leave you for your destination. You can also return home whenever you please, allowing you to be spontaneous with your trip! Adding in local gems and making spontaneous stops is what makes some of the best memories to be had while traveling. Further, having less hassle makes you less stressed and more able to enjoy your trip! For me, that makes all the difference in the world. 3. It’s more comfortable. Speaking of being able to enjoy your trip more, you will be in your own private space the entire time. Who doesn’t want to feel the comforts of home while traveling? With renting an RV, you get to sleep in a bed just for you and made by you. You are also able to have more fun on the drive there and back because you get to play games and not worry about having to keep quiet or disturbing anyone else. You can bring whatever you want and whatever you may need. You won’t have to think about what’s allowed on the plane and what’s not, or what you need to buy once you get there. It’s your home away from home. 4. It’s a better experience. This is my favorite reason. I grew up on road trips, and I am quick to say they are my favorite childhood memories. The amount of world that you miss when you decide to take a flight is too much. RV-ing helps you embrace the real spirit of travel. It enables you to live in the moment and make those memories you otherwise wouldn’t! Being able to see the different landscapes and quirks our country has to offer is priceless. I can tell you it’s something you won’t ever regret, especially if you’re sharing it with people you love.

So, add a North Carolina RV rental to your vacation plans! For practicality sakes, but also for the best quality trip.
