5 Rules To Follow At the Campground If You Are New To RV-ing
Campground Etiquette For Newbies
MAKE SURE TO ABIDE BY “QUIET HOURS” – Every Campground or RV Park has “quiet hours.” Make sure to note when they are. This means that you should refrain from playing loud music, running your generator, or doing anything that involves loud noise. Also, try to keep your kids from screaming.
DO NOT WALK THROUGH OTHER CAMPSITES – Campsites should be treated like your home’s yard. As such, do not walk through other people’s campsites. Try to remind your children to do the same.
TEST YOUR SLIDE OUTS AND PARKING SPOT BEFORE HOOKING UP – Make sure to account for the space needed for your RV Slideouts before you hook up at the campground. This way, if you need to adjust your parking job so as not to encroach on your neighbor’s space, you will save time. Make sure you park in a way that will allow for ideal living space right outside the door of your RV.
HAVE A DEPARTURE CHECKLIST WITH STEP BY STEP “TO DOs” BEFORE DEPARTING – Imagine just having stowed all of your counter appliances, put away everything inside your cab, and buckled everyone in to the RV, beginning to head down the road of the campground. All of a sudden you head a loud “Bang!” Long story short – the awning of your RV was still extended, and you just scraped the hood of an RV while driving down the Road. THIS IS WHY YOU NEED A DEPARTURE CHECKLIST!
IF YOU ARE UNCERTAIN, ASK FOR HELP! People at RV parks are usually helpful, and they typically know a decent amount about RVs, or how to troubleshoot problems. If you need help, ask for it! We have found so many wonderful and willing-to-help people in these communities when we needed it most.
Don't earn a POOR REPUTATIONat your campground or RV park!
