This post is brought to you by Moonlight. All opinions are my own.
My daughter has been begging me to go camping, for what feels like foreverรขโฌโ being totally honest, I haven’t got a clue on what it actually takes to spend a few nights in the wilderness. We’ve bought most of the basics, including a tent, sleeping bags and travel cookware… but behind that I’ve been at a loss.
I’ve done my fare share of Googling, and if it cameรย down to it, I’m sure we’d survive our first 100% outdoor adventureรขโฌโ Though, thankfully, I recently came across an app that has beenรย more help than any other website or guide. It’s called Moonlight and it’s billed as “theรย ultimate camping and adventureรย planningรย toolkit” for both novice (me!) and expert campers alike.
Plan the Perfect Family Camping Trip with Moonlight App
Moonlightรย is an all-in-one convenient mobile application thatรย was developed to helpรย maximize the camping experience with friends and family.รย
At the moment, I’m planning a camping adventure with my immediate family, but the Moonlight app has almost convinced me that it would be even more fun to invite my sister and her childrenรย along.
Created by ACTIVE Network, the global leader in activity management software, Moonlight allows campers toรย plan their trip down to every last detail, including:
รขโฌยข Easily import campground reservations
รขโฌยข Map out fun activities with friends
รขโฌยข Plan your camping meals
รขโฌยข Create and share a camping checklist with friends
รขโฌยข Get articles from experts and experienced campers to help you stay safe and have a good time
*Moonlight is currently developing รขโฌหbear poopรขโฌโข, an interactive featureรย comprisedรย of those great secrets and special spots in campgrounds or the nearby area thatรย are not commonly known. Push notifications between campers will also beรย available in future iterations.
As an amateur camper, these were the exact checklists that I needed for peace of mind on our upcoming adventure. Here’s a few screenshots to see just how user friendly Moonlight is.
SUPER EASY!!
One of my favorite features of Moonlight is the meals/recipe ideas. I totally neglected to realize that we would need to make our own food, and the app gave me some quick and easy suggestions that honestly sound delicious. The more I look over the app, the more excited I get!
The planning features also includes the ability to add friends and family. Again, I hadn’t planned on taking anyone other than my husband and daughter, but the more I think about it, the more I want to make our first trip an experience for everyone. Moonlight would letรย me add my sister and her family to our plans, allowing them to see all the details, and add any of their own.รย The mobile app easily facilitates the sharing and exporting of lists, from packingรย tasksรย to groceryรย shopping, soรย the workรย can be easily divvied up among the group.
With the Moonlight app, a touchรย onรย a smartphone or tablet keeps group trips organized, on time and on budget. Less time is spent planning trips and more time is spentรย making memories and soaking up the wonders ofรย the great outdoors.รย
Obviously we are still in the planning stages, but Moonlight has been a wonderful tool in helping to bringรย everything together. I love theรย great selection ofรย activities,รย camping tips and first aid help (a total plus for parents!) … andรย there are even ghost stories! I know that once we do go on our adventure, I will feel more confident with Moonlight by my side.
The Moonlight appรย is available now and can be downloaded forรย freeรย through theรย Appรย Store. An enhancedรย upgrade is available forรย $5.99 annually.รย
