3 Tips to Book for Memorial Day
Pulling off a last-minute long weekend isn’t about luck—it’s about using the right tools. The Campspot mobile app is your best friend here. Filter by available dates, browse by price, and look for spots with Memorial Day events. And don’t be afraid to get flexible—shift your stay by a night or consider a nearby town for more options.
1. Check Out Campspot Award Winners
Right from your home screen, you can check out the 2025 Campspot Award winners, recognized as the best campgrounds across North America. Check out winners across 12 categories, from Top Campgrounds for RVs to Top Hidden Gems.
2. Get Specific With Your Search
When it comes to Memorial Day weekend, time is tight and demand is high—so the faster you can zero in on your dream site, the better. Luckily, the Campspot app makes it easy to cut through the noise. Start broad with filters like price, distance, or ratings. Then narrow it down with must-haves like:
- Site type (RV, tent, cabin)
- Amenities like pools or pet-friendly policies
- RV length and slide-outs
- On-site extras like Wi-Fi or cable hookups
Whether you’re hunting for something close to home or ready to road trip, a few smart filters can get you to that perfect last-minute spot.
3. Use Park Features to Make It a Blast
Memorial Day weekend isn’t just about finding any campground—it’s about booking a place where the whole crew can kick off summer in style. That’s where filtering by Park Features becomes your secret weapon.
Use the feature filters to find parks with all the extras that turn a simple stay into an epic long weekend. Pro tip: Look for spots with a lake, splash pad, or community events—you’ll thank yourself later.
You’re One Click Away From an Epic Weekend
Don’t let Memorial Day Weekend slip by while you scroll. A little urgency and a quick tap on the Campspot app is all it takes to turn your weekend into a full-on summer kickoff. Whether you’re after waterslides, Wi-Fi, or just wide-open space to exhale—there’s still a campsite with your name on it. But seriously… grab it now.
