Is My RV Covered by Insurance While Parked at a Campground? 

Pulling into a campground after a long drive is one of the best parts of traveling in a recreational vehicle. Many RV owners may assume their insurance coverage works the same whether they’re on the highway or parked at a site, which can lead to costly surprises.

What Is Vacation Liability Coverage?

Vacation liability coverage can help with third-party claims of bodily injuries or property damage you’re held liable for while your RV is parked and being used as a temporary home.

Without it, you could be personally responsible for injuries or damage to someone else that occurs around your parked rig.

Can It Cover My Belongings?

Personal property inside your RV is another area where coverage gaps may appear. Camping gear, electronics, clothing and cookware can add up in value, and a standard auto policy typically won’t cover them if they’re stolen or damaged while you’re parked at a campground.

An RV policy can include personal effects coverage to protect those items. Key things to review with our agents include:

• Whether coverage can apply while parked versus while in transit
• If there are limits on high-value electronics or sporting equipment
• Whether theft from an unlocked or open RV can affect your claim
