Boost Curb Appeal of Your RV Park or Resort by including Site Grills

For RV site managers looking to reduce their vacancy rates, offering conveniences that cater perfectly to the RV lifestyle could be the key. RVs blend outdoor living with cozy indoor comfort, making the RV lifestyle truly exceptional. Moreover, the growing number of parks, campgrounds, and resorts providing spots for RVs makes choosing the best temporary home quite challenging for adventurers. People often base their decisions on availability, amenities, and location. In this article, we explore amenities that seamlessly combine indoor living with outdoor fun.

One standout amenity that can enhance the RV experience is grills. Grills make it incredibly easy to enjoy the things you love. For instance, if you're an angler, there's nothing better than savoring a perfectly grilled fish caught earlier that day. If you're hosting a family reunion, grilling favorite dishes brings everyone together while reminiscing about cherished memories. Grills provide an excellent way to connect with old friends, meet new ones, or even enjoy a relaxed meal for just two. Installing grills at your park, camp, or resort significantly enhances guests' experiences.

Grills — They Blend with Local Activities

Grills make it so much easier to enjoy the things you love. If you're an angler, then nothing beats enjoying the catch-of-the-day grilled to perfection. For family reunions, grilling family favorites while catching up on old times is a great idea. Grills make it simple to share the outdoors with old friends, new acquaintances, or even create a casual meal for just the two of you. Grills are a fantastic way to boost guests' experience at your park, camp, or resort.

Upgrading Camp, Park, or Resort Amenities with Grills

Taking a look around at your competition, do other parks in the area offer grills? Adding grills to your location can be another compelling reason why RVs choose your place. When it comes to adding gas BBQ grills to your park, resort, or campground, you have several options.

Adding a Grill for RV Sites

One major advantage of installing grills at RV sites is the free marketing. Guests can tick more boxes on secondary referral sites such as TripAdvisor or AAA. Installing gas BBQ grills, portable propane grills, or built-in barbeque grills enhances the experience of RV guests. Secondary forms of marketing rely heavily on the guest experience as a basis for ratings and rankings of RV sites.

When people review the options before booking a spot, they look at reviews, star ratings, amenity lists, and photos of the campground, resort, or RV Park. These are some of the criteria that people use to decide which location to choose. Adding grills or a grilling area is one of the simplest ways to improve customer reviews, attract new guests, and encourage returning guests.

Designing Grilling Areas

There are various options for designing grilling areas. You can start small or go big. You can create a communal area for grilling or install grills at specific RV sites.

Start Small or Go Big

Add Gas BBQ Grills to a few RV sites and make those premium sites. Maybe you charge more per night for those sites or use them as perks for guests. Perhaps that conversation goes something like this: "Let me upgrade your site to one of our premium spaces. They come with extra amenities."

Rent Portable Propane Grills

Perhaps you rent portable propane grills to guests who want to BBQ next to their RV. During holidays, this service would be highly sought after. Renting a barbecue grill provides more flexibility to meet demand, and since the grill isn't tied to a specific site, you can accommodate more people.

Create a Communal Grilling Area

Design and build a communal grilling area for your park, campground, or resort. Include a few picnic tables, gas BBQ grills, and perhaps some other features like outdoor patio heaters for cooler seasons. A handwashing station would be ideal in such an area too. Many of our gas BBQ Grills come with an automatic grill timer that turns off the gas to the grill after it has been inactive for an hour. These features help set our grills apart, and they save time and money for property management, camp hosts, and resort personnel. This feature is excellent for both built-in barbecue grills and communal grilling areas.

One Size Fits All or Not So Much

We offer a fantastic selection of grills. They are available in many sizes. Smaller patio grills are perfect for smaller spaces where people max out at 2-4. For larger areas, we offer larger grills that enable a bigger family to grill a full meal. Medium-sized grills help you design communal grilling spaces that meet the needs of most guests.

Built-in or Portable?

Deciding between a built-in or portable grill can seem like a difficult choice. A significant advantage of built-in BBQ grills is that you can connect them to natural gas. With portable grills, a small canister of gas (5-10 gallons) accompanies the grill. In some situations, piped gas becomes easier to manage, while portable grills allow grilling in more locations. Is one better than the other? The answer is no. The grill that will work best for you depends on your property's layout, location, number of guests, and many other factors unique to your RV resort.

Many people might prefer to grill on their site if your property includes a campground as well as an RV Park, then a mix of portable and installed grills might be your best solution. Guests can rent the portable grills and the tank of gas to fuel it. If the grill belongs to a specific site, then piping gas can be a huge benefit. Portable BBQ grills also have the advantage of lower upfront costs since you're not paying to pipe gas to an RV space.
