We're here to help families build lasting connections in the Great Outdoors. Our videos are to help you with your first time going to a park or campground and to review products that have helped us along the way so you can plan the perfect outdoor memories with your family. Our shorts are meant to provide knowledge and entertainment with the best views we have gathered over our time hiking and RVing the United States.
We will help you with your next outdoor adventure!
Hey, I use Rubber horse mats cut up and glued and pop riveted together. I have a piece of rope on them and used a bright colored paint. I use these as they don't slide or break apart after a few months. 3m glue works great.
Campground should make every space level because all RV's need level spaces. No matter how the lots are they can make level spaces but they do not want to spend the money to make them flat!
no problem. check the grand canyon nps website www.nps.gov/grca/planyourvisit/shuttle-buses.htm though to make sure you know when the shuttle runs. There is also a nice map there. But we saw them stop at Trailer Village often and you will see them all over the park as they move people along the South Rim.
Both are nice but I think the South River Falls (if you hike down to the base) is my preference. Also, the Lower White Oak Canyon Falls are awesome and it is an easy forested hike with many smaller cascades along the way. Overall Run Falls - 93 feet - is something to see, too.
I’m seasoned and guilty leaving the awning out… I went 30 min away to visit my brother and could SEE a storm in the distance and my family in town by my RV started texting me because there was a tornado near my rig! Shockingly, my awning was fine… the whole campground was seemingly untouched
Tires off the ground… I’m shocked to discover that some people don’t know that their STABILIZING jacks are NOT leveling jacks! If I find a window to say something, I do. It could seriously cost them so much damage
We have cooked for 40 people off a 16" square steel plate with embers under it on a 12 gallon drum cut in half, no dramas. I cant wait to get the baby Q out the box, just hope it burns hot enough. Not sure about gas. I seen some great big flash ones that couldnt sizzle spit. The meat just stews on them.😂
About $130. we did it more for a fun project than cost savings. Since we had the net it paid off as other goals with nets were way more expensive and I couldn’t find the frames for sale without a net. Thanks for watching.
So far, i enjoy your channel the best. Short, edited, not raw dialogue. It seems like you plan these videos well. Subscribing and looking forward to exploring your channel more when i get some time. 👍🏻

I’m a newbie doing research. I swear I just heard a guy who works for a manufacturer reiterate your point about not hooking up to water full time because it can damage the water systems too? Either way, thanks for the tips!
Yes, without a pressure regulator you can blow out fittings if the campground pressure is too high. We use the pressure regulator that I put in the video description and have never damaged our water system. But, If you have ever let a hose run for any length of time you can see how many gallons that could produce. We were at Zion Canyon RV Resort in Springdale Utah and a fitting came loose on our plumbing. I think it was just due to traveling on bumpy roads. We were disconnected from the campsite hookup but I left the water pump on. The fitting opened up which caused a loss of pressure and the water pump ran all night. In the morning, I woke up to a weird humming sound, went outside and the pump was on and my tank was empty, with a puddle on the ground quickly drying in the UTAH red dirt. But, at least the fitting was in the outside storage bay and not in the bathroom or kitchen. we got off easy. So, I would also recommend turning off your water pump when you leave the RV for any length of time and overnight. But, if we were hooked up to the campsite and had the fitting loose in the RV the water damage to the particle board subfloor, cabinets, etc would have been permanent and massive with unlimited water flowing until morning. Thanks for the comment!
One rule I dont agree with is having no more than 2 adults per site. I understand you dont want a family of 20 crowding one site, but I mean at least limit it to four adults. some parents travel with their kids who are adults.
I’ll tell you the one thing I do I watch the weather always watch the weather when you know things are going in and out and flying around. That’s one thing I do watch whenever the weather is windy. I don’t leave my awning out and you can strap it down, but I would never leave it out during your windstorm. I’ve seen many tore off, literally tore off while someone’s camping with that and then where the hell my thing go left off because that’s a very big fix. I’m thinking that we’re gonna be a $900 fix with parts and labor not if you don’t have that money. why do you have CamperTravel fifth wheel motorhome things happen expect the unexpected
We love Gulf State Park! It hard to get a campsite, especially for a week so book early. This year we are staying @ sun outdoors rv resort. It backs up to gulf state park and has access trails to the Gulf State park Trails.
People who put a water hose elbow in a place that does no good at all. It's supposed to go into the connector on your rig so the hose can come straight up from the ground and not make a 90' bend to go into the wall of your rig. Water order starting at the faucet: Pressure regulator> filter> hose> elbow> rig. All that being said, I was in a site recently that the filter was so close to the ground I had to put the elbow on it..... Just do your best!
I just booked 9 nights for Jan 2025 for $50 a night minus 15% geezer discount. Screw Florida and their 1 month penalty for out of staters. They'll miss our money in the long run.
