When the economy is in shambles and everything is tight, it's hard to plan a family vacation. The costs involved in packing up the family and flying to remote locations are staggering enough. In addition to flights, the price of food and activities is added in to the overall cost. It can become so overwhelming that many families just skip their annual holidays altogether. Children also become disappointed in the decision to cancel a trip. Tight budgets do not have to mean that your family foregoes its annual holiday. Vacations for small budgets are in reach for just about anyone. There are a few ways to enjoy a low budgeted vacation.

Distant destinations are not always the answer to an enjoyable vacation. Luckily, America consists of many national landmarks, landscapes and parks that are welcoming to families. A number of parks provide camping services that can fit almost any budget. Vacationers can save a lot of money on a camping trip, compared to staying at a hotel. Plus there is something to say for truly experiencing and enjoying the great outdoors. There is nothing better than waking to the songs of birds and the smell of fresh coffee brewing atop the campfire. Through this experience, campers have the opportunity to learn new things about their surrounding environment.

Vacations other than camping are obtainable within a budget. Locate historical districts, large attractions or boating excursions nearby that can be visited within a budget and a short drive. Find an attraction that can be enjoyed during the day, and allow for you to return home at night. Make the drive enjoyable by taking a scenic route to your destination. Large highways or interstates can be boring an uninteresting compared to a scenic hilly road. The fastest route is not always the best road to travel.
