Camping remains an affordable way for families to vacation, with modern campgrounds such as Taylor's Beach proving to be popular destination spots for families on a budget. Taylor's Beach provides everything you could possibly imagine — sandy beaches, paddle and fishing boat rentals, game rooms, playgrounds, basketball and volleyball courts, planned activities, shuffleboard, themed weekends and more.

“Camping has become more than pitching a tent in an isolated wooded area,” said Alan Taylor, owner of Taylors Beach Campground. “You get modern amenities, plus activities to keep kids from getting bored, for a fraction of the cost of a hotel. Our camping starts as low as $24 a night—you can’t even stay at the simplest hotel for that price.”

My family (wife and three kids, sometimes the dog) and I have been RV campers since 2007. We own a 2000 Trail-Lite B22 Bantam hybrid, our tow vehicle is a 2006 Trailblazer LT EXT (5.3 V8 with 3.73 Rear Axle Ratio), and our setup includes the Equalizer sway controller. Looking to upgrade the camper in the near future, but until then we get out 2-3 times a month in season.
