RVers and Tenters: Compatibility Issues?

Friday April 8, 2011
Most campgrounds (particularly public campgrounds) accommodate both RVs and tent campers. However, it sometimes becomes an issue when RVs and tent campers are placed in the same area of the campground. I won't list the differences, because I've tent camped and RVed, and I'm aware of things that each type of camper does that may annoy the other one. So, you're a tent camper, and you've been given a site next to big class A, or you're an RVer placed between tent campers. Does it bother you? Feel free to post your comments.

RV Forums

Thursday April 7, 2011

When you need good, first hand information the natural thing to do is to talk to someone with personal experience. There are tons of resources for RVers: Magazines, books, outlets like Camping World, and many, many RV websites.

While these may not answer your specific questions there are many RV forums you can join that are ideal for asking questions and getting quick answers. These groups have members from all RV backgrounds who, collectively, possess volumes of knowledge about any type of RV, RV problem and RV solution. Each forum offers a wonderful opportunity to begin making lifelong friends.
