The Dyrt Announces Best Places to Camp With Kids Presented by Kelty
PORTLAND, Ore., April 15, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- The Dyrt, the app to get the best campsites, built by the largest RVing and camping community in the U.S., has announced the 2026 Best Places to Camp With Kids Presented by Kelty, an outdoor gear brand known for creating thoughtfully designed equipment that makes it easier for families to get outside and explore together.
Memories of childhood camping trips can fuel a camper for life. Whether it was one amazing trip that will never be forgotten or an annual summertime tradition, adult campers want to provide those same memories for their own kids. And while times have changed and amenities have reclassified some campgrounds as outdoor resorts, it's still about experiencing the great outdoors and making new memories. That being said, a lot of campgrounds pull out all the stops and make sure kids have more than enough to do, and that parents can still fit in some rest and relaxation.
"When you take your children, grandchildren, nieces or nephews camping, you're quite possibly helping to create a lifelong camper," says Kevin Long, CEO of The Dyrt. "Once you get into adulthood, those camping memories are still so strong. There's just something about leaving home, staying at a campground and being outdoors all day and night. It's freedom and adventure and so different from their everyday lives. Kids love it, and campgrounds these days are really going the extra mile."
Best Places to Camp With Kids recognizes the top campgrounds in the country that cater to younger campers. From playgrounds and fishing ponds to arcades and bounce houses, these campgrounds have activities for days, and provide a welcome respite for parents and guardians to enjoy the great outdoors themselves.
