Summer is the prime time to book a coveted autumn campsite. Find the perfect spot near you to enjoy the season’s best color show.
Bigfork Motorcoach Resort
Bigfork Motorcoach Resort is a Class A resort that’s just a hop, skip, and jump away from Flathead Lake. The resort is specifically for longterm renters who want to settle-in and enjoy the view for at least 30 days. Shadowed by mountains, covered with trees, and a one-hour drive from Glacier National Park, there isn’t a better parking spot for an extended autumn stay anywhere in the country.
Hearthside Grove Luxury Motorcoach Resort
One of Michigan’s most popular attractions, the Lower Peninsula’s Tunnel of Trees stretches 27 miles along Lake Michigan’s northwestern shore. In fall, the linking limbs of birch, cedar, maple, and oaks trees come alive with color. Located at the south end of the tunnel, Hearthside Grove Luxury Motorcoach Resort is family-owned and impeccably maintained. Their friendly staff may even convince you to stay.
Endless Caverns RV Resort
At the foot of the Massanutten Mountain range, you’ll find Endless Caverns RV Resort. Explore the massive underground cave system, go for a hike through the history-rich Shenandoah Valley, or try your luck at fishing at the nearby stocked pond. Endless Caverns hosts 148 wooded plots, so you’ll have your pick of ideal spots. (And plan to bring the whole family because Endless Caverns is pet friendly.)
Mountain View Campground
Widely known as “Fall’s Color Capital,” Stowe, Vermont explodes in a kaleidoscopic expanse of color. Right in the middle lies Mountain View Campground, with options for tent camping, cabin dwelling, and full hookup RV sites. Every site includes a picnic table, fire pit, and free Wi-Fi for uploading all of your Instagrammable moments—from perfect golden poplar leaves to pumpkin spice lattes.

The brilliant gold and red leaves make driving north up M-119 an unforgettable experience. Arrive in late September to early October to catch the color in peak form.
I Heart TIPS
Take a drive down Skyline Lane, which winds through the park for 105 miles. The valley’s green and gold oaks mixed with orange flashes of maple early to mid-October.
I Heart TIPS
Early September through mid-October is your window (again). Under fall’s canopy of golden elms, red gums, and maroon sumacs, branch out by foot, canoe, or back road.
