I am a big fan of journaling my camping and travelling adventures. It is wonderful to look back on previous trips but also to remind myself about various campgrounds and RV parks I stayed at and what I thought of them.
I personally have two journals. One is strictly a “where I am going and where I stayed” which is more of a review of each place I have stayed. I’ll make notes of the site I stayed in, what I thought of it, and will also make notes about other sites in the campground or park I thought were great and I should try and book next time, whether they were on the waterfront, or a bit more secluded, or closer/further from the playground or dog walking area. I pop in prices for the stay or anything local worth noting. This is great for a reference when I want to rebook a stay at an RV park and want to remind myself about the amenities I loved or to request specific spots.
The second is more of a true journaling journal where I write my thoughts about the entire adventure and day itself, how I was feeling, what I want to do etc. This one is more for pouring out my thoughts, ideas and dreams – you know, the kind of one you would have hidden under your mattress when you were younger!
Inspired? Here are some of our favorite RVing and camping journals followed by travel log style journals to record specific places, trips and locations, followed by journals specifically for kids…

I love this one because it is a journal and a log where you can put all the information about the campground or park you are staying at, with a log and worksheet you just need to add your specific info to for each place you stay. Three different covers to choose from, although I am partial to the blue retro trailer which is the one I am getting. Although the purple one is their latest and it is growing on me!
