 Summer is here and according to the "2010 Old Farmer's Almanac", most of Canada will have a warmer and dryer summer than 2009. April through August should be warmer than average in most areas. All provinces (especially the Atlantic provinces) can expect less precipitations than average right thru early fall. In a nutshell, here's what they predict; Atlantic provinces - above average temperature and below average precipitations , BC - below average temperature and below to near normal precipitations, Northwest Territories - above average temperature and below average precipitations, Ontario - above average temperature and above average precipitations, Prairies - above average temperature and average to above average precipitations, Québec - above average temperature and below average to above average precipitations. If these folks got it right, we're in for great camping weather this year. Go out and enjoy!
In case you haven't yet "de-winterized" your RV, you can use our "Spring checklist" to make sure that your RV is ready for the new season. If you're in the market for an RV, check out our "RV shopping checklist" and our "Buying a used RV checklist". And don't forget, if you have any camping items to sell, you can sell them (for free) in our "Classifieds" section.

According to a recent survey, most consumers seek other consumer's feedback before making important pu rchasing decisions and/or selecting vacation destinations. So to help you choose your camping destinations, we have developed an easy to use and quick "5-point" rating system for our 2000+ campground listings. You can rate a campground's location, campsites, services, recreation facilities and washrooms and if you`re in the mood for it, you can even write a full review of the campground. We currently have hundreds of ratings and reviews (see scrolling box above) from campers like you so why not take some time and rate the campgrounds that you've visited recently and..... remember to come back to rate the ones you'll be visiting this summer! Whether you're a "weekend camper" or a "seasoned camper", your opinion counts and will be truly appreciated by fellow campers! The more ratings we have, the more useful our rating system will be! To read existing reviews "click here". If you want to rate a specific campground, use our Campground search engine to locate it and then click on the "Rate it" link provided for each listing.

 And the survey says........ Did you know that more than 80% of campers feel that campground owners charge too much for firewood and that more than half of campers think that campground owners should not use coin-operated showers? These are some of the findings of our "Campground services survey" with over 8000 campers surveyed so far. To find out more, click here
