First-Time Tent Camping? We Got You Covered!  

Want to camp in a tent but you're feeling a little nervous, don't worry we'll help ease your mind with this step-by-step video..!

My husband & I started out tent camping during Covid. Well, I started camping. He tried to get me to camp for 30 yrs and I was like...nope. I started watching RU-vid and discovered glamping. He let me get whatever I thought I needed to be comfortable. I purchased a tent, a raised bed from the jump. I also bought the puzzle mat pieces from the auto section to put in the bottom of the tent. I got a couple of the wooden magazine boxes, which we used as bins for the propane bottles, our light, citronella candles, etc. Once setup, I used the wooden bins as night stands inside the tent. I had the shower tent with the toilet inside. I fell so in love with clamping that the next year we upgraded to a couples coach travel trailer. We are out as much as possible. Really enjoyed your vlog!!!!

Nice video. I am a 59 year old solo tent camper who started last year. I'm completely hooked. I was a little nervous at first because no one at the campground looked like me. But I didn't let that stop me. One tip is if you're just starting out, camp close to home or near someone you know. On my first camping trip, I was at a campground 3 miles from my friend's house. I also made sure i had the full hookup site like you said. However, I also do primitive camping.

For the portable potty, I got a pop up which takes 15 seconds to set up. I use a different style portable collapsible potty with a lid that looks like an ottoman. Also, instead of hauling heavy litter or other bulky stuff, I use the nontoxic biodegrable powder that turns waste into gel and eliminates odor. Bottom line, there are so many styles and choices to consider what works best for you. I'm getting ready for my first camping trip this fall with my dog. I'll be getting a ppop up tent and canopy and setting up in my backyard and we'll be doing trial runs out there to make sure he can do the camping thing.

Hello👋🏽, we are Vic and Kerin out of Ohio, wanted to introduce ourselves, were starting over on RU-vid😢 but were watching, thanks for reminding us about Tenting😊

Enjoyed the video. caN I offer u some ideas for campers.for those afraid of using gas.the can use a electric hot plate with a solar generator..and solar or USB small camp ceiling fans for air and bugs.also a light for the toilet tent.and joolca hit tap camp shower to hve a HOT shower. Bear spray for any animal or human. Lol..and dic-o beds.come in large Xtra large and 2XL.there beds u can use as twin set up or bunk style and the top bunk can turn into the bck part for the bottom to become a sofa.u would need pillows so bck won't be on the bar when leaning bck.and also get bamboo mat for shower. And a doggie pee pads for when the men to to the bathroom. Place under and around toilet.u know as the y get older that aim ain't the same lol.and then toss out with litter.oh yea 1 more thing .the picnic tablecovers for table and bench..and u can get the mosquito fog and fog Area fog the grass to keep the mosquitoes and insects out your area.thats kinda of out there maybe do it b4 camoers wake up it odorless but if not citronella insect repellent candles.and maybe u may want to try a pop-up tent from gazelle there's other pop-up tents for gazelle is guaranteed not to leak ect. Just take it down and pull out and pop out the sides and go in and pop up the ceiling..thanks fir video i will be watchinggg.🎉🎉😊🎉😊. Can't find my glasses during a lot of squinting so I hope everything is spelled out right lol stay bless.

My wife and I are thinking about trying our hands at camping well more me than her, lol.

Awesome, thanks for the show & tell. Helped us a lot! We have just about everything, just trying to find the right tent for 2-4 for our space & trying to figure out how we can use our sleep machines, any advice if we don’t have the power bank as of yet? We thought, extension cord with power strip for the power outlet at site??? You’re right, we should have our tent already too, just see soooo many. Gotta hold up in high wind & rain. 👍🏼❣️❣️❣️

Another tip for starting out on a budget: try hitting thrift stores, garage sales, and online market places. Trust me when I say, people are constantly upgrading, so there are deals out there, and make sure to watch for sales.

Thanks for always sharing ❤️ U 2 are the KEEYOOTEST. Hopefully, my husband and I will try this soon. We've been talking about it for the past year. Take care #ATLFAN

Video was so nice that I had to watch it twice. Mostly because my granddaughter kept talking 😂 Very informative video and I’m glad to see y’all back.

Going to share this with some friends trying to get started camping

We really enjoyed this tutorial tent camping and looking forward to seeing of your videos 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿❤️

Don’t forget to tell them to make precious memories also with their beautiful family and kids❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

New subbie here. I started tent camping in April and taking my 2nd trip this month or Sept. I went with my daughter and we had a really good time. I agree with you about camping neighbors. We were next to two families who drove from S.C. They invited us over to make s'mores and sit around the fire. I've got to invest in the bathroom tent and portable toilet. I bought a 4-person tent and also invested in the 6-8 person tent because my son will join us on the next trip. My oldest brother and SIL have been camping for about 30 years, and they live out west. Best believe I was bugging him every other day before my trip. We had everything covered, and I felt like a pro setting up.😂 Can't wait to see more of your journey ❤

This video is great. I haven’t been camping since I was a teenager (now 38) and I am getting ready to take my kids camping (14 and 16) for the first time and this video is so helpful and is helping me make sure I’m prepared. I’m currently putting a list together of all the stuff I need to purchase so that we can start camping regularly.

I don’t know how I came across your page, but I’m sooo glad I did. We just started our RV journey last month and I was thinking bout tent camping also. After I show my husband this video he might be on board with tent camping. Y’all make it look so fun. Keep these videos coming cause I’m watching

I JUST GOT MY INFLATABLE TENT 2 DAYS AGO...IM SO EXCITED THIS VIDEO IS PERFECT TO HELP ME WITH WHAT TO GET

I done slipped over here and love it!! My channel is not about camping but wanna go soooo bad, trying to convince the hubby 😂. Thanks for the basic essentials - MAYBE I can talk this man into it! New subscriber here!! Thanks!!

Love your videos and content! It's a shame this WS platform hinders our subs and monetization. If y'all add a commercial or 2 I will let them fully play so you can have extra to purchase more camping gear like the other camping videos. Be blessed and stay safe!

This video helped so much. My hubby and I are going camping in a few weeks for the 1st time and I'm really excited. Thank you so much, many blessings!

Great video. I love camping 🏕

First time seeing your channel, just subscribed, yall so down to earth, love it. Be safe out there.

Great vid!The shovel for fire total burn out is a must!2 things When we setup we also want 2 trees about 15 ft apart.Tie a tight line between the two have a large tarp drape over line use adjustable poles front grommets use lines to guy out cover over chairs.The back of the tarp use bungee cords stretch out towards the back stake down.If it rains the camping and good times continue!Oh stakes need to go in at 45 degree angle so the wind won't ripped them up and out. 42:20

Thank you so much for this video! You all have boosted my confidence about the upcoming camping experience my family and I are about to part take in for the first time. In'shaa'Allah 🎉

Excellent! You should roll your windows up and inward toward the screen to move them out of your way❤

Thanks for sharing!!🤗🤗🏕

It's my first time watching yall videos and I'm so grateful to have found y'all! I'm always on RU-vid so I know it's nothing but God that led me to such beautiful people of God and to get help with my anxieties about tent camping. ⛺️ thank you thank you thank you pray we meet up one day!

When I was a kid we always went camping, I’ve been trying to talk my wife into going for a while now, watching you guys video done all the work for me that I’ve been trying to accomplish for the better part of 2 years. Thank you !!!! 😂

I'm so glad I stumbled upon you guys! I'm new to camping and will be spending my first weekend out with my boys and fur babies and you guys gave awesome tips, and also love your vibe ❤ def will be following your adventures 😊

SOUNDS AMAZING

Thanks for the tips. I’m planing an early fall weekend trip and I think we will setup a restroom tent too.

Its called a groundcover...that acts as a water barrier and protect tent from tears or pokes. Tarp is a common vrohndcover. ⁵ Yoga mat style matierial is good for inside especially with just a sleeping bag

Hello. This is my first time seeing your videos. Thank you for sharing. ❤

Honey Buns, y'all just gained a new subscriber. Love y'all energy 💜💛💜

Hello. Stopping by to support you. Wishing you all the best!

I love this and love camping but scared to camp by myself now. But I love you guys organization 🎉

This was awesome content very informative. Thanks I’m glad I found ur channel

First time here, thanks for sharing 🤙🏾

My wife and I enjoy your videos. We also enjoy checking out new areas in Western NC for camping. Perhaps we will see y’all when we are out camping if you make it over to the WNC area. We have a few camping videos up on my channel of some spots in this area that you might enjoy, both dispersed (free) camping, as well as some of the various pay sites. Maybe in the future you can put together a group camping trip of those who subscribe and show interest.

I don't know if anyone mentioned the weather... but you wanna be mindful of the weather. Rain, snow, extreme wind. Ensure you have extra tarps and ropes to cover your tent if there is rain in the forecast. Also, you will want to secure your tent to a strong tree if there are strong winds. You definitely don't want your tent to collapse like it did when I didn't secure my tent 😬 welp, there's my two cent😁

Thanks for the tips. Wish I could put them to use, but don't know anyone who's into or even interested in camping and no way will I do it solo.

Great video with great tips!

Thank y’all for sharing an awesome video. Safe travels and stay safe. 🙏🏾

I haven't been camping since I was a child want to start going as an adult

Just ran across u guys luv the video y'all broke all the info needed, but if I decided to do this I would get the rv grill with propane. It's sm more like a collapsible type gd job & i subscribed ❤

Hi guys…. Just an FYI, You’re supposed to put your bathroom tent poles through the sleeves on the top part of the tent. Blue sleeves.

Thanks for the great video .....I watched it twice

First of all I am not sleeping in any tent. Yall brave

Just subscribed!

🥰🥰🥰

Nice camping tips. I'm not into the religious stuff though. Camping is always different with a feminine touch.

App a lat ch n is how my Mom from NC and my Dad from WV pronounced it

Make sure there are no bears or wild cats in area if you don't have gun or rifle E

Big Bruh you sound like you from Jersey???
