With 15 locations throughout the East, Spacious Skies Campgrounds are located within an easy drive of an array of fall festivals. Festivals include celebrations of fall harvest, books, films, arts, brews and history.
“Fall can be the most heavenly of seasons in the RVing world because of its combination of brilliant color, comfortable temperatures and fall events,” said Ali Rasmussen, co-founder of Spacious Skies Campgrounds. “Our campground guests can easily explore these special events by day and enjoy the laid-back offerings of our campgrounds by night.”
Fall Color Trail
Fall festival fans can also experience the progression of fall color from north to south along the Spacious Skies Campgrounds Fall Color Trail, and many festivals coincide with peak color in each location. For example, the Salem Haunted Happenings Festival, with events highlighting the town's famous connections to witches, coincides with the peak fall color of the maple, birch, ash and oak trees that surround Spacious Skies Minute Man in Littleton, Mass. And the Savannah Film Festival beginning Oct. 25 coincides with the peak color of the majestic oak trees at Spacious Skies Savannah Oaks.
