- This summer, taking a trip in an RV might be one of the safest ways you can travel, and there's no shortage of luxury parks across the US.
- Motorcoach Country Club in Indio, California, has been voted the top RV park in the country and provides luxury villas for each RV guest.
- Some high-end RV parks cater to families and children, like Normandy Farms in Foxborough, Massachusetts, and Sun N Fun in Sarasota, Florida.
While the coronavirus has prompted many to cancel their travel plans, some families are turning to RVs to travel safely this summer.
You may be surprised that RV travel can be just as luxurious as a 5-star hotel. All across the country, there are RV resorts with infinity pools, spas, and fitness centers.
While traveling by RV is low risk because it's self-contained and you're exposing yourself to fewer people, the risk does increase when you go to a resort, so it's important to adhere to local guidelines when traveling and to check with the resort to see what will be closed for safety.
Here are the top 10 luxury RV parks in the US you should travel to this summer.
