Meet the Takacs

Jason and Alison Takacs are both avid stargazers and hardcore hikers who travel with their two boys, Preston and Grayson. They are a family of part-time RVers regularly in search of dark skies and epic landscapes all across the US. With their Jayco Jay Flight 184BS in tow, the Takacs family is on a quest to show the world how to RV responsibly and still have loads of fun.

  • Describe your camping style

    We are minimalists. We travel light and carry as little as possible when RVing in our small travel trailer. It allows us to pack quickly and get on the road right after work so we can recharge our mental batteries out in nature. We also travel on a budget so we can see more beautiful places affordably throughout the year!

  • What is something that always lifts your spirits?

    Being out in nature on a hike near an alpine lake or deep in a slot canyon makes us happy. And at night, hanging out under a starry sky by a warm campfire completely lifts our spirits. 

  • What is your preferred type of camping?

    We stay at state parks and Army Corps of Engineer campsites far more than any other type of campsite. Getting close to nature without the crowds is important to us and both of these options are usually the least crowded and most readily available here in Texas. 

  • What’s the best piece of advice you’ve ever given or received?

    Make sure you pay attention to your tires. Start with a reliable brand. Then, when you are on the road, check that they are in good condition at every stop. We’ve had to change tires on multiple RV trips over the years.

  • What is your travel philosophy?

    If you are waiting to RV when you have retired, don’t. Start making memories now since there is so much to see out there. You’ll run out of time to see it all if you wait. Just jump in with both feet!

The Takacs' Top RV Destinations

We feel like we’re picking a favorite child with this question since we've visited so many incredible places, but these five destinations were pretty epic for us: 

Yellowstone National Park

Yellowstone is where we photographed bison on a foggy and moody morning in Hayden Valley. 

Dead Horse Point State Park

This park will always be remembered as the spot where we captured shots of the Comet Neowise. 

National Parks

Both Glacier National Park and Bryce National Park have so many incredible hikes and are simply breathtaking. 

The San Juan Mountains

The San Juan Mountains of Southern Colorado are like a home away from home and we try to visit once a year coming from Texas.
