Title: Top 4 Reasons We Picked Robidoux RV Park When We Visited Nebraska
Hey, fellow adventurers! Dane here from DoubleDeckerFam, rolling out another piece of the travel diary for all you wonderful souls following the trails with us. Today, I’m diving into our spectacular stay at Robidoux RV Park in Nebraska, and let me tell you, it’s a gem for family travel. With our tribe – my wife, our six amazing kids (the eldest being 10 and the energetic twins at 5), along with our double-decker home-on-wheels – finding the right park isn’t just a preference; it’s a necessity.
1. Family-Friendly Amenities
The quest for an RV park that checks all the boxes for a family our size is like finding a needle in a haystack. Robidoux RV Park, however, was that rare find on our journey through Nebraska. It wasn’t just about having a spot to park; it was about the amenities that could keep the charms of childhood alive for our brood.
The first reason we hitched our RV here was the cool playground. Let’s face it, after hours on the road, the kids are bursting with energy. Watching them swing, slide, and climb was the relief we all needed – and they made quick friends too!
But the joy didn’t stop at the playground swings. The walking trails were a call to adventure for our little explorers. We cherished the family walks, spotting wildlife, and breathing in the fresh Nebraska air. Seriously, here’s where memories are made.
And don’t get me started on the campfire pits. I mean, what’s an RV park without the quintessential campfire? Roasting marshmallows and sharing stories under the starlit sky made every night special. It’s touches like these that cater to families that not only seduced us into staying but made us fall in love with the place.
2. Superb Facilities
Moving on to reason number two: Let’s talk nitty-gritty – facilities. Robidoux didn’t disappoint. With our mighty double-decker requiring substantial support, Robidoux RV Park delivered with generously-sized sites and full hookups for electricity, water, and sewer.
Cleanliness is non-negotiable when you’re traveling with kids, and the bathrooms and showers were spotless. We could freshen up without fretting over, well, let’s say less-than-ideal conditions we’ve faced in our travels. It was a breath of fresh air – quite literally.
Not to mention, they offer a laundry facility. If you think keeping a couple of outfits clean is a chore, try six kids worth. Being able to wash clothes without leaving the park was not only convenient but a downright godsend.
Plus, their friendly staff made us feel right at home. You could genuinely tell they cared about our stay, offering tips for the local area and ensuring we had everything we needed. That type of service is worth its weight in gold.
3. Budget-Friendly Rates
As a family of eight, we are always traveling on a budget – vacations tend to add up quickly otherwise, as you can imagine. That’s why we were thrilled to discover Robidoux’s affordable rates, making it our third reason for choosing this park.
With daily, weekly, and even monthly rates available, we had the flexibility to decide how long we wanted to indulge in Nebraska’s charms without breaking the bank. In our case, we found the weekly rate to be perfect for our stay, offering us a discount from the daily rate and leaving us with extra cash for local attractions and snagging some Nebraska beef for our campfire dinners. Who says you can’t live the RV life and be economical too?
4. Proximity to Local Attractions
Now, onto the fourth and final draw: the local attractions around Robidoux RV Park. Situated in Gering, Nebraska, the park offered us the chance to explore notable sites like Scotts Bluff National Monument, a mere rock’s throw away. The monument’s history and nature trails became a significant part of our educational journey – a hands-on history lesson for the kids and a visual feast for all.
Furthermore, the Legacy of the Plains Museum was another hit, enriching our understanding of the region’s heritage. And, we couldn’t pass up the opportunity to explore inside the fascinating tunnels at the Carhenge in Alliance, a short drive away. This quirky roadside attraction was a conversation starter, allowing us to discuss creativity and innovation with the kids while admiring a rather unique take on the classic British monument.
Even the local town charm of Gering was accessible, with farmers markets and community events that let us mix with the locals and experience the Nebraskan lifestyle.
Before ending this post, I have to suggest one more thing: If you ever find yourself planning a trip around Nebraska, especially in an RV, do consider Robidoux RV Park. It met all our family’s needs and truly contributed to a memorable exploration of the heartland. Who knew Nebraska could become a home away from home?

Keep traveling, stay curious, and never forget the journey is as important as the destination. Until next time, my DoubleDeckerFam and all you beautiful nomads out there – keep roaming free!
Dane, rolling out. 🚌✨
