Group camping with friends or family can be such a rewarding experience and can build memories and relationships that last a lifetime...or they can go horribly wrong, and cause hurt feelings and vows to NEVER do that again.

In an effort to promote the former, we've rounded up all the little tips we've collected over the years on how to successfully road trip and camp with a large group of people while respecting boundaries and having fun.

Today we’re diving into a park review which will hopefully be of interest to both our Canadian and American listeners – because we’re reviewing the KOA Holiday Niagara Falls in - you guessed it – Niagara Falls Canada!

Since landing a reservation at State, National and Provincial Parks is proving very difficult this year with increased demand for camping, we thought we should review some private parks that have proven to exceed our expectations both as base camps for day exploring, and as places to stay in their own right.

If you are interested in trying to land a reservation at an Ontario Park this year, Melina created a short YouTube Video to give you the best chance. Go check it out.

And, be sure to check out Episode 11 of the podcast where we review the difference between campgrounds and RV resorts and let you know our opinion on whether the latter is worth the extra fees.

IT'S ALMOST CAMPING SEASON!!!

Well, maybe not quite...but with the sun shining on the snow here in Ontario, we know it's going to be spring soon! And as we write this it's Groundhog Day where Canada's own Wiarton Willy has predicted an early spring.

Join Dan on today's episode we chat about the step by step things you need to do to your trailer to get it camp-ready for all your 2021 adventures! Specifically, we'll talk about:

• What to check if you've been storing your trailer before you hook it up and drive away into the sunset
• How to flush out the antifreeze in your system 
• How to safely and properly sanitize your freshwater system for healthy water all season long
• What systems we test to make sure we don't have any first trip surprises

For a full accounting, don't forget to check out the blog. If you listen via apple, we'd really love to receive any reviews you have. Just scroll to the bottom of the RV Canucks podcast page and give us a star rating, and leave a written review of what you love about the show or want to hear more about.

We'll talk about the BEST places to RV in the area, and detail our two day-trips to some of the region's hottest attractions.

Grab your passport and let's go!

From telling how full your propane tanks are (without any special tools) to determine how long your tanks will last, we've got all the tips you need to manage your RV propane usage in one short and easy episode (WARNING: there is some math...but cool math...math you can use. None of that, "If Jack rows to town in a boat and Jane rides the train, at what point will they meet  on the road" nonsense.)

Enjoy!
