Set the Scene

You've taken plenty of trips in your RV, so you'll want to put in some effort to make the environment feel different for holiday RVing. Turn your go-to travel lodging into a heart-fluttering romantic spot with the following tips.

Decorations

The quickest way to build a romantic atmosphere is with decorations. Opt for battery-powered candles to set the vibe without risking a fire hazard. Some even flicker like the real thing! Put up lights on your RV awning as well.

One fun Valentine's Day approach is to decorate your camper with memories and objects of your relationship. Print out photos from the first few dates or from milestones. Bring out items from memorable times, such as the dried flowers from your wedding day or that carnival prize from an early date. Scatter your RV with memories of you both to get the nostalgia flowing.

Another approach is to use traditional Valentine's Day decorations. Stock up on the hearts, cupids, roses, pink, and other iconic imagery.

Food

With holiday RVing, it can be more challenging to cook a fancy meal. The good news is you don't have to! A fancy snack can be much more feasible and still help set a romantic atmosphere. Build a cheese platter to pair with some nice wine. Make homemade chocolate-covered strawberries. Place the chocolate in a small pot, then put that inside a bigger one filled with hot water. This will melt the chocolate so you can then dip your fruit into it. Cool them on wax paper so they'll harden and you've got an easy romantic dessert!

Music

Build a Valentine's Day playlist to add ambiance. Typical music includes soft jazz, light acoustic guitar, or classic love songs. Many music streaming services will offer curated playlists to make things easier.

Kids

For most families, holiday RVing on Valentine's Day means the kids come too. Get them to help out! They can assist with decorating, making the playlist, or even help prepare the food.

If your kids can be left alone, find an activity to occupy them while you and your partner enjoy some time alone together. Get them to watch a movie, play a few games, or even check out the campsite supervised activities.

Activities

A Valentine's Day in your RV can include a wide range of activities. Take a blanket, a bottle of wine, and some snacks to go out and star-gaze. Find a hike that will give you a stunning view of a sunrise or sunset. Look for somewhere near hot springs or even a campsite that offers a hot tub. Find a restaurant within easy driving distance for the classic dinner. Holiday RVing may end up being your favorite way to spend Valentine's Day!
