By Helen Fox


You may have finally bought or rented that dream recreational vehicle of yours and are just trying to die it out in the next few days or weeks across Canada. You may have planned your trip as one going through the Yukon area and want to stay at the best Yukon RV Park that you can find. Do finish this article to find out how to choose the best one for your needs.

Before taking on the task of looking for a proper RV facility for your needs, do take the time to make a simple checklist first. The checklist, though simple, will need to include most of the items in this article so as to make your search a bit easier. You should never underestimate the power of a good checklist.

First of all decide if you want to stay at a park that is pull through or back in in terms of accessibility. Pull through means that you can just drive straight through and park at any of these slots regardless of your vehicle position. However you park, your amenities access like cable, sewage lines and such will always be on the proper side of your vehicle. A back in access means you have to do a bit of maneuvering to get your vehicle into position so that you can access all the cable lines and sewage lines if available.

The back in park is harder to settle in if you have mediocre driving skills and a large rig, so if this is true for you then better to choose a park with pull through access. However, if you do have great skills in driving, backing up and parking large or even small vehicles or trailers, then the choice will not really matter match.

The Yukon area has around forty government run RV parks and quite a few private ones as well. Many will differ according to scenery and amenities offered. If you want a more wilderness experience you may choose one that has no wifi and cable amenities and most other creature comforts found in the city. Standard offerings are how showers and cooking areas and the like which of course you cannot do without.

A good thing to look at and if it fits your budget is the price per night stay. In the Yukon area, the prices per night stay can be anything from free, that is right free, to as much as 140 dollars per night stay. Prices will differ of course in terms of kind and amount of services offered and also access to premium scenery sites.

Another thing to consider are the people running the facility you have in mind of going to. You can first go to local forums and ask around from experienced campers about certain camps and sites as regards their experience and such also. You always want one with cordial and amenable people who love their guests.

In sum this article has shown some things that you should consider in putting on your checklist to help you in your search. Consider also additional specific information like off season and on season rates and specific information on actual amenities for starters.
