Dreaming of a California Roadtrip?
Let Us Help You Camp Like a Local!

Secret Spots
Tips and Tricks

Our families have been roadtripping through California for decades. Let us help you craft the camping trip of your dreams, hitting some of our favorite spots along the way.

Book a Weekend Vans rental on Outdoorsy.com using the Promo code “WVLOCAL” and one of our team members will set up a call with you to learn about your goals and priorities.

We then provide you with an itinerary that includes some of the best known (and less-known) camp areas throughout California. It’s as if you know the place like the back of your hand.

California Has A Little Bit of Everything

  • Beach

    From a So Cal surf town’s classic state campground, to a remote, windy campground hidden in the sand dunes of the northern coast, we have the inside info on the best beach spots in the state.

  • Mountains

    High alpine, lakeside campgrounds. Remote camping along trout-filled mountain streams. Granite walled-valleys that are, well, crowded, but amazing. Let us send you to some lesser-known mountain areas, or give you tips of how to navigate the crowds at the famous places.

  • Desert

    Weird, spikey trees. Ghost towns. No other humans for miles. And somehow being hot and cold simultaneously. The California desert is beautiful and remote. We can point you in the right direction, and you can let your imagination run wild.
