It's a topic that's often debated but still prompts awkward interactions between hosts and guests - hookup compensation. Starting today, we're formalizing the way hosts request compensation for hookups provided to guests.

When you set out on your RV adventure, you’re thinking about the freedom, the open road, and the endless adventures you’re about to have. The last thing on your mind is the likelihood of a breakdown on your unit, let alone the cost of repairs for the lifetime of your rig.

A few weeks ago we featured a blog post with the Top Guest Tips. As promised, here are the top host tips we've received from other hosts as well as guests.

One of the great things about traveling by RV is the ability to mix business with pleasure in a way that fits your lifestyle. An RV can make the perfect office for working during a road trip. It also provides a great platform to make money, which will allow you to travel more and live a more fulfilling lifestyle.

Occasionally we receive interesting photos or stories from our hosts and guests. Recently Sunny27 reached out to us with a photo from her visit with a host in France. We were so intrigued about her travels as she used four hosts during her adventure. We decided to ask her more questions about her experience with our European hosts.

If you’re subscribed to our weekly newsletter, you’re probably aware that we’ve had a constant stream of new hosts joining. For the past few months I’ve been saying, we have “almost” 2000 host listings. So I’m pretty excited to announce that this week we reached and surpassed that milestone. I think that’s cause for a bit of a celebration, don’t you?

Every Tuesday we post a guest tip of the week. We realize not everyone follows us on social media (though we would love it if you would) or has a social media account. So, we thought we would share some of the guest tips we've shared so far.

We love to hear from our hosts and guests about their experience using our site. Occasionally we have hosts that write in to tell us something unique they do for their guests. We spoke with Our3Acres who have only been members for a short time but they have some great advice for hosts and guests.

We consider ourselves lucky to have the option to travel at any time of year. It’s September now and we’re currently traveling in Newfoundland and plan to be here until mid-October. We chose this time of year so we could finish our tour of the province at a time when we could catch the Celtic Colors Festival as we pass through Cape Breton Island before returning home to Ontario.
