We know there’s a good chance you probably enjoy staying at most (or some) of the places listed in the poll below. But if you had to pick one that you like staying at the most, which would you pick?
Would you be happiest in the desert where you’d be opening your RV’s door to a cactus and rocky mountain views? Or would you prefer to open your door to the oceanfront? Or maybe big pine trees in the green and mossy forest?
If you answer “other,” please leave a comment and tell us where. We want to know. Thanks!


I would also add “mountain” to the list as we love to be close to the Rockies or other high mountains where we can see them.
Forest, in the mountains (or at least hills) next to a lake or stream!
Mountains! That’s why we live in Colorado.
I’m disappointed that mountains wasn’t an option. We love watching the sun rise over the tops of mountains as we sit and drink coffee while reading the Bible. It helps us keep life in proper perspective. My second choice would be watching the sun rise over the water. Been retired for years but still an early riser.
I chose other. We prefer to stay in wooded areas, not necessarily mountains. Though mountains may be near.
I like to stay in the forest, but prefer waterfront.
I like lakefront but I hate mosquitos
So—-why are so many folks staying in the desert SW???? When Forest is the majority (3x beach). Is it they have no choice? I’m reminded of the Bugs Bunny cartoon when he digs to the middle of a desert, hops out of the hole and runs for the beach. After quite some time and after great exhaustion he proclaims: Where’s the beach? So, OK, a desert is a beach – without the water. I grew up in the desert SW. I hate it. My wife & I stay far away from crowded beach campgrounds and resorts. That’s us. We prefer hills and mountains and trees. Forests.
Grass or mowed fields. We trial our dogs and like to be close to all of the different events.
Other is my answer because I enjoy them all. I try to make the best of every scenario. The options should include mountains also.
Mountains! We love dayhiking, and mountains are the best for that. Banff, Yoho, Jasper, and Waterton National Parks in Canada are less than a day’s drive from our house, so we try to go about 4 times per summer.
Lake front so I can go kayak fishing!
Wooded areas! Typically quiet, sounds of birds, wildlife sightings. A much better get away than any of the other choices.
I selected “Other”‘ because my wife and I like variety in travel experiences. We like to stay in all types of environments. However, we do like to travel to mild climates to avoid excessive cold or high temperatures.
A lake or stream in the forest.
We prefer COE or State campgrounds. Most are wooded and usually near a body of water (lake, river, stream, etc.).
I voted other. All choices have their pluses and minuses. Variety is the spice of life!
I enjoy the vast variety of landscapes everywhere we go, mountains, forests, desert lakeside, creek, it’s all good. Just time the trips right, don’t want mountains in winter or deserts in mid summer.
desert, forest, beach and mountains. add ‘mountains’ to the list and allow multiple selections
Where’s the option for all? Lol!!
I picked “beach” because our rv resort is on the oregon coast, but not necessarily “on” the beach but about 100 yards from it. We spend our summers there from mid May to mid Oct.
Lakeside!
I agree with Mark, lakeside.
Variety is the spice of life !!!
A year ago I would have said, “beach” because that is the preference of DW. But about 11 months ago we took the RV to the beach and the winds made things difficult. She still prefers beach over forest, but we’ll rent a house at the beach and leave the RV at home.
Desert, forest and beach.
The best locations for us would be equally divided between our Oregon coast and our Oregon forests, which can often happen simultaneously.
I said Beach, but variety is the spice of life and enjoy them all.
I answered forest, but l avoid them when snow falls! Then I head south.
On the water…rivers, streams, ocean. Any water. Or the desert. Or the mountains.😂
I spend most of my time in the mountains, then I go to the desert
Mountains
Other which means any of them.
how about mountains
Mountains!
