Yep, watched these ppl let their dog loose twice and pooped in front of another lady's 5th wheel. People like that are trash

I would add watch your children and pets. Make sure your pets are on a leash especially if the camp ground is crowded. Great advice here thanks!!!

Rule #11: Don't yell to someone sitting right across from you at the campfire for hours on end. I can't say how many times this happens, mostly at state or provincial campgrounds. It seems like teenagers and young adults are the worst. They literally yell instead of talking.

I've only run into this certain issue once but stay within your campsite. In Myrtle Beach a couple years back, our next door neighbors thought they pretty much owned the place. They had a little fence for their dog right up to our RV and even let their dog crap under our RV. They took our picnic table and even plugged an extension cord into our pedestal. When I brought these issues to their attention, they acted as if I were putting them out. The next day, thankfully, they moved to another spot.

As a very long time RVer and camper (more than 4 1/2 decades), I’d have to say that you’ve covered most of the “unwritten rules”. The only one I would add right now is “don’t run the generator all night unnecessarily.” I was recently camped in a tent at a free campground in southern Colorado. The night cooled down nicely, so that opening windows would have been appropriate for the RVers there, but the occupants of a large motor home ran their generator all night long instead. At that same campground, another camper played “music” very loud until well after 2 a.m. Maybe the motor homers were trying to block out that noise! One night at Lake Powell some 20 years ago, a group from Salt Lake pulled in at about 2 a.m. and started noisily setting up camp. One of them was especially obnoxious, mimicking Bill Cosby’s Fat Albert. It didn’t take too long before I’d had enough. I shined my 50,000 candle power spot light on him and told him to quiet down-and he did! The next day he came over and apologized-just wasn’t thinking. Except for that first encounter, they turned out to be good campground neighbors. Later that same week, another group put a pair of huge speakers on top of their truck and blasted the campground with acid rock. When I asked them to please turn it down, I was greeted with some pretty vile language, and instead they turned it up louder. I turned them into the Chief Ranger, and he sent their biggest Ranger to evict them. It was fun watching that-the one with the dirty mouth made the mistake of mouthing off to him, but instead of writing a citation, he picked up “mouth” by the shirt collar so that his feet were dangling in the air, then nicely said, “sir, you have exactly 30 minutes to vacate, or I’ll be back.” Old fashioned, but it worked-they packed up and were gone in much less than 30 minutes. I’d say common courtesy is the overall rule to follow, but for some people, they need it written down, I guess.

Look for CheapRVLiving (Bob Wells). His channel is filled with knowledge of boondocking, RV accessories from all aspects from tents, vans, rv's etc. There is so much you can learn out here.

I go camping with some work buddies every year, multiple times a year. I run into a problem with them that typically gets us in to a verbal argument that gets rather heated about them wanting to play music too loud. I agree that it's extremely rude and it makes me look bad when I'm with them. Thanks for backing up all of us with manners!

I totally agree back in the 70’s we went camping in a old school bus that we actually rode to school for years before they got rid of it and our dad bought it and we helped him work on it but anyway we were camping one time in particular we were literally the only ones at the campground and we went for a hike on a trail and when we got back another camper had come in and you guessed it they took the site right next to us and we didn’t even get all the way back to our site and they came running over by us and started yakking away and didn’t shut up for the next 3 hours before they took a breath that is just rude we always liked more rustic campgrounds without electrical hookups basically dry camping and we had a family that came driving through the camp ground and they stopped and we heard them say we can’t stay here there are no streetlights lol

While things you said are true, we've turned into a Me-Me society and people don't care about others and will do what ever they want. Ones like #7, if someone wants to listen to loud music at 3am they will because they want to and don't care about anyone else. And if you say something, they will act like you are wrong for butting into their business. It's sad how people are acting these days.

As a former trucker, the rule on multilane urban highways is for slower heavy rigs (semis & buses) to take middle lanes on 6- and 8-lane roadways. Leave the exit and speed lanes to faster vehicles and those leaving the high road.

Thank you so much for sharing this! Everyone needs to hear these rules!!!!

Another great video. Some of these should be just plain common sense.

Thank you for the reminder. You would think that these are common and good sense for most people but I guess not. I live in north central BC so we ha e a. ESS to so man forest service campsites that charge nothing and are in fabulous locations. My pet peeve are when people race by on quads kicking up dirt and dust ~ not to mention the noise. We also had a fellow camper beach his boat at a spot we had cleared and prepped for ours, no one could miss our trailer so that says someone else is using the launch area. I'm not sure if thisis just a Canadian thing but there are so many small communities that have signs welcoming RV'ers with notice of free overnight parking, usually in a strip mall parking lot a lot of truckers will use the space as well. The philosophy is that if a town can slow or stop tourist traffic then it's good for business. Many of these lots have grocery, liquor and outdoor type stores. Plus there is the matter of safety Many thanks for the video!

Thanks so much for the information. We are living in a more rude world today and we need to be informed so that we can be good neighbors. Thanks for educating us!

These were great tips! Not just for those with RV's but anyone camping.

Here's one for when you gas up your RV - Pull up to the pumps farthest from the gas station store. The people working in the store need to be able to keep an eye on all the pumps to prevent drive-offs, or hit the emergency stop on the pumps if something should go wrong. If you gas up at the pumps closest to the building, they're not going to be able to see past your vehicle. (I work at a gas station - and, yes, our station is one of those rare remaining stations that allows drivers to pump before paying, so the drive-off thing is an issue.) So please, for the safety of everyone there, use the farthest pumps.

My family camps a lot, and I've seen just about everything. But the thing that really "grinds my gears" is when I reserve a "premium" waterfront campsite 6 months in advance so I can spend a nice relaxing weekend fishing with my kids. And then here comes the parade of random kids (and adults) from all over the campground, lining the shoreline 10 feet from my camper, despite the fact that there are multiple public fishing spots available. Do these people hang out in their neighbor's yards without permission at home? I don't get it. People have no common sense or courtesy.

Talk about entitled millennials or the retired, well you certainly fit that stereotype! Learn to share!

Not because of noisy playing but because there were 3 kids, 6,4 and 2yo, who felt like our campsite was theirs. Several times a day they would show up on their bikes for a very talkative visit. They were sweet kids but we were there for peace and solitude. Please advise parents that not everyone wants to hang out with their kids. I couldn't believe the parents weren't concerned for the safety of their children. Their campsite was quite a distance away and they could not have been keeping an eye on them.

You can not sit in the fast lane (#1) and drive the speed limit if there are other vehicles going faster than you are. Also, on a two lane road, if there are five or more cars behind you, please use a pull out and let faster traffic pass. These are good safety and courtesy practices to follow!

That goes back to just common courtesy. In the military, you ask permission to enter a campsite for fear of getting shot if you don't.

Then why are you staying at a campground with hundreds of other people? Get real. It's not your property, so try being a little more social.

Couldn't agree more. I was camped at a lake last year and we were lucky enough to get a beach-front site. A woman across the road from us repeatedly walked into our camp and hung out looking at the water until we ran her off. Some people are just CLUELESS.

Thomas you're a disgusting human being. As a liberal my family and I respect our camping neighbors. We help others out when having issues, flat rv tires, cup of sugar, etc Young and old. We've even trade camping spots because an old couple was having a hard time with their spot.

Favorite RV Channel :)

Just stumbled on your channel. Almost did not watch, but did and could not agree more. Well done. 😊 --Mark

Great video! You two are great. Thanks for the info.

I don't even like to see ty T.v. on at a campground, as it takes away from the whole experience we went for.. right, it can ruin the atmosphere. Loves the vid :) y'all are a neat couple. And so knowledgeable!!

Absurd. Most "etiquette" people act like the HOA of campgrounds, trying to impose "rules" on everyone. Campgrounds are supposed to be fun, a vacation, not a prison. If the goal is quiet to "look at the stars," go to the boondocks, not where there's 250 other people. Common sense. Even worse, these HOA's are mobile, traveling from one campground to another making everyone miserable.

We'll roll in late sometimes. We won't set up until the next day.

I was gonna say you can pop out the slides and drop your stabilizers quickly and without much noise. Do not disconnect the truck or even put the awning out, just make it so you can sleep. If you cannot do this in 10 minutes or less you shouldn't be RVing, IMO.

To me that is partly WHY having a trailer is great... You roll in if at night go to bed... deal with it in the morning... no pitching a tent,. inflating a mattress etc.

Great tips!! I'm a newby.... Just bought a 1998 Bounder! I learned so much from this video🙏😘

Hi Mike & Jennifer! My husband and I really enjoy your channel and very useful information here in Dallas. Thank you! We're getting our travel trailer next year. Hope to see you out on the road! Safe travels!

yes, I don't camp but I was taught at home you don't walk through someone's yard AT ALL unless it's Halloween & the kids are gonna run through, that's the exception. the yard is their property, so stay off!! people aren't taught basic manners & courtesies anymore.

@@connie5768 .. Okay, these go way beyond common sense or courtesy, and there's no evidence those in the past were any different. It's a public campground. People come and go, with associated noise. Campers have always done that. You've done that. In the end, if you want total silence, camp in the desert miles from others. Whatever, stop trying to dictate to others.

Hi folks! Thumbs up on this informative video. like your deliveries, so I’ll be looking for more .

If someone is parked next to you and didn't come out into the woods to watch football, If they actually came to be in the woods and enjoy the outdoors but they will be forced to hear you screaming at your outdoor TV That is just inconsiderate of them to come out into the woods and expect to enjoy the wilderness.

Manufactures would not put them on RVs if there was not a market for them. If you are planning on using your outdoor entertainment system, talk to your neighbors first. They may want to come over and watch the game (or whatever) with you. Maybe not. You won’t know until you ask. If you are going to watching tv in view of the public, expect the public to react to it.

Diana Neal Probably your neighbors who don't like football but like to listen to Jazz inside but can't hear it because of your loud football game and cheering/ or booing friends. Real campers are out with nature to hear nature, not your game.

Everything you stated requires consideration from people. Many people are not considerate. My pet peeve is people slamming doors all night. It even makes my dogs bark. I only stay in an rv park usually one day to basically dump and fill. I have had my fill of the rude people that ruin what camping is supposed to be about. I glamp where no one thought it was possible to park a motor coach
