Being rested and alert is essential for safe driving, so make sure your <a href=\"\/blog\/7-must-have-rv-bedroom-accessories\/\">RV bedroom setup<\/a> is at its best. Choose a mattress in the perfect size for your RV\u2019s bed frame that will support through the night.<\/p>\n<p>Accessorize your sleeping set up with comfortable sheets, blankets and pillows. If you tend to overheat, open the windows to your RV and let the cool, overnight breeze flow into the space. Fans help airflow, and moisture wicking sheets can help you control humid air. Gel pillows are also a great way to stay cool. Utilize what you can to make the most of your travel time without feeling exhausted.<\/p>\n<h4>Don\u2019t Forget the Bug Spray<\/h4>\n<p>No one likes itchy bug bites and ceaseless scratching. Make sure your RV is bug-free by purchasing an ample amount of bug spray or by using <a href=\"https:\/\/wayoutdoors.net\/dont-bug-me-hack-tips-to-keep-insects-from-ruining-your-camping-trip\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">easy DIY remedies<\/a> to all of your pest problems.<\/p>\n<p>Blocking pesky bugs from entering your living space is not only for your own peace of mind, but it\u2019s also crucial in preventing harmful insect borne illnesses like lyme disease or influenza. Keep your health at the forefront to remain in tip-top shape and enjoy your trip to the fullest.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=&#8221;4.13.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; width=&#8221;100%&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.13.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_image src=&#8221;https:\/\/rvusa.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/SummerRVTravelCouple.jpg&#8221; alt=&#8221;A couple sits outside of their fifth wheel during their summer RV travels&#8221; title_text=&#8221;Summer RV Travel &#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.13.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=&#8221;4.13.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; width=&#8221;100%&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.13.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.13.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h4>Pack Light<\/h4>\n<p>When it comes to personal items like clothes, shoes or vanity products, keep things to a minimum. Make as much room as possible for necessities that will aid in your adventure, such as camping equipment or entertainment gear.<\/p>\n<p>While it\u2019s great to stick to what you\u2019re good at, step outside your comfort zone and take a trip on the wild side. RV travel is the perfect time to try new outdoor activities like kayaking, fishing or even spending the night exposed to the elements. If you\u2019ve been dying to try something new, bringing it on the road with you is your best bet to get it done. In the end, you\u2019ll be glad that you did!<\/p>\n<h4>Use the Outdoors to Your Advantage<\/h4>\n<p>Space can be an issue with RVs when traveling long distances. Stretch those legs and get some fresh air by utilizing outdoor space as much as possible. From hammocks, to picnic tables, or even camping tents, the options are endless. Try cooking a meal over an open fire or relaxing under a built-in canopy. Find a remote area for some incredible stargazing or <a href=\"\/blog\/8-best-national-forests-for-summer-rv-travel\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">head to a national forest<\/a> and experience nature as it was meant to be.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=&#8221;1_2,1_2&#8243;

But have you prepared for all of summer\u2019s less than desirable aspects?<\/p><p>Depending on where you\u2019re headed, you may even run into some brutal summer storms full of rain, lighting or even twisters! It\u2019s important to make sure you\u2019re ready for anything that gets thrown your way. Ensure your trip is everything you ever imagined it could be and more with these seven easy steps to make the most of RV travel during summer!<\/p><p><img class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-10625\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rvusa.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/iStock-174925744.jpg\" alt=\"How to Make the Most of Summer RV Travel in 7 Easy Steps\" width=\"724\" height=\"483\" \/><\/p><h4>Ensure All Heating\/Air Conditioning\/Appliances are Working<\/h4><p>Summer RV Travel\u00a0 is a definite no-go without proper heating and air conditioning solutions. Make sure your RV\u2019s systems are running full steam ahead by testing them out a week or two before the big trip.<\/p><p>Appliances are another luxury you can\u2019t afford to miss out on. Whether it\u2019s just a weekend trip or an extended vacation, having plenty of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rvusa.com\/blog\/top-10-must-have-rv-appliances-and-gadgets\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">useful, portable appliances<\/a> will make your life a whole lot easier. Consider slow cookers, dehumidifiers, washing machines or air compressors to combat all of the unfavorable features of RV life.<\/p><h4>Prep Your Mattress for Restful ZZZ\u2019s<\/h4><p>Getting a good night\u2019s sleep is vital to RV travel. Being rested and alert is essential for safe driving, so make sure your sleeping situation is at its best. Choose <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mybobs.com\/mattresses-and-bedding\/mattresses\/c\/mattresses\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">a mattress in the perfect size<\/a> for your RV\u2019s bed frame that will support and lull you through the night.<\/p><p>Accessorize your sleeping set up with comfortable sheets, blankets and pillows. If you tend to overheat, open the windows to your RV and let the cool, overnight breeze flow into the space. Fans help airflow and moisture wicking sheets can help you control humid air. Gel pillows are also a great way to stay cool. Utilize what you can to make the most of your travel time without feeling exhausted.<\/p><h4>Don\u2019t Forget the Bug Spray<\/h4><p>No one likes itchy bug bites and ceaseless scratching. Make sure your RV is bug-free by purchasing an ample amount of bug spray or by using <a href=\"https:\/\/wayoutdoors.net\/dont-bug-me-hack-tips-to-keep-insects-from-ruining-your-camping-trip\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">easy DIY remedies<\/a> to all of your pest problems.<\/p><p>Blocking pesky bugs from entering your living space is not only for your own peace of mind, but it\u2019s also crucial in preventing harmful insect borne illnesses like lyme disease or influenza. Keep your health at the forefront to remain in tip-top shape and enjoy your trip to the fullest.<\/p><h4>Pack Light<\/h4><p><img class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-10623\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rvusa.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/iStock-683548960.jpg\" alt=\"How to Make the Most of Summer RV Travel in 7 Easy Steps\" width=\"724\" height=\"483\" \/><\/p><p>When it comes to personal items like clothes, shoes or vanity products, keep things to a minimum. Make as much room as possible for necessities that will aid in your adventure, such as camping equipment or entertainment gear.<\/p><p>While it\u2019s great to stick to what you\u2019re good at, step outside your comfort zone and take a trip on the wild side. RV travel is the perfect time to try new outdoor activities like kayaking, fishing or even spending the night exposed to the elements. If you\u2019ve been dying to try something new, bringing it on the road with you is your best bet to get it done. In the end, you\u2019ll be glad that you did!<\/p><h4>Use the Outdoors to Your Advantage<\/h4><p>Space can be an issue with RV\u2019s when traveling long distances. Stretch those legs and get some fresh air by utilizing outdoor space as much as possible.<\/p><p>From hammocks, to picnic tables, or even camping tents the options are endless. Try cooking a meal over an open fire or relaxing under a built-in canopy. Find a remote area for some incredible stargazing or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rvusa.com\/blog\/8-best-national-forests-for-summer-rv-travel\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">head to a national forest<\/a> and experience nature as it was meant to be.<\/p><h4>Stow an Emergency Kit<\/h4><p>You never know what will happen when on a trip. Stay ahead of any potential disasters by packing an emergency kit full of helpful goods. You can buy pre-made first aid kits stocked with all of the most important health cures like bandages, gauze and disinfectant.<\/p><p>Include other valuable wares that you may not think about at first. Flashlights, water filters and even tarps can be useful in dangerous predicaments. Being over prepared is never a bad thing especially when something could be used in unusual circumstances.<\/p><h4>Don\u2019t Forget the GPS<\/h4><p>Getting lost is not ideal.
