We’ve made a lot of mistakes when choosing a campground for our #RV adventures and now we’d like to share what we’ve learned from these experiences. In this video we answer some important questions, such as:
- How trustworthy are online reviews?
- How do I determine what’s best for my traveling party?
- Who should I listen to when making a booking?
We’ll shed some light on how to make the best decision for the way you like to travel, and we share some hacks for working from the road.
We filmed this video in Hill City, South Dakota, and in it we explain the differences between our chosen campground (Black Hills Trailside Resort) and the world’s second-largest KOA down the street (Mt. Rushmore KOA Resort at Palmer Gulch). We break down why one might choose one resort over the other, and explain that either can be a 5-star experience, it just depends what you’re looking for in a vacation.
Other sights explored in this video include:
- Mount Rushmore National Memorial (Keystone, South Dakota)
- Custer State Park (Custer, South Dakota)
- Roberts Prairie Dog Town (Wall, South Dakota)
- Wall Drug (Wall, South Dakota)
- Badlands National Park (South Dakota)
- Crazy Horse Memorial (Crazy Horse, South Dakota)
- Wind Cave National Park (South Dakota)

-- About Us -
Hello! We’re Amanda, Derrick & Myles, a suburban family who - along with our dogs Iggy & Brisket - are traveling the U.S. in an RV every chance we get, and working remotely while we explore. We're not full-time adventurers, but instead find opportunities to take sabbaticals from suburbia, while still making it back to our home base in time to keep a normal school schedule for the kiddo. While life on the road can sometimes be “ruff,” we make it a priority to savor the beauty around us while bonding as a family.
- Why We’re Vlogging -
Amanda is the travel planner in the family, and Derrick & Myles are always happy to join in on whatever shenanigans she cooks up. But we’ve noticed that the boys tend to have a pretty bad memory about these adventures after the fact. By vlogging our travels, we hope to have a lasting memory (or at least video evidence) of the places we’ve explored together as a family.
- What Inspires Us -
When we first started RVing we found KZbin to be a valuable resource in finding RV tips, tricks and travel advice from experienced #rvlife couples and families. We gathered advice for traveling with kids from KZbinrs such as Less Junk More Journey; gathered general technical advice from helpful resources like Keep Your Daydream; laughed along with Happily Ever Hanks; accumulated travel planning suggestions from Travels with Robert; followed along with others who were new to RVing like Kara and Nate; and appreciated the wisdom that came from the years of experience that Changing Lanes has to offer. Ultimately we decided to take the leap into this #glamping life after following along with Adventures of A+K, who showed us a world we couldn’t wait to explore, and who continue to inspire us with amazing new content weekly. While we’re still working and aspiring to achieve even a fraction of the quality videos that these channels produce, we highly recommend following each of these vloggers for even more amazing RV content!
