From quiet hours to pet leashes, a sheet handed to campers upon check-in usually indicates some park rules. However, there are plenty of unwritten and unspoken rules that newbies must know to help them be better campers.
In this video, Grateful Glamper goes over some unspoken rules of campground etiquette.
Shortcuts. Who doesn’t like them? They save time and energy. However, when at an RV site or campground, taking a shortcut by walking through occupied sites is a no-no. Doing so to reach the bathhouse or whatever campground amenity faster is frowned upon. Just as it is unacceptable to walk through someone’s yard in a neighborhood, walking through occupied sites is something campers shouldn’t do.
Another tip is for cleaning sewer hoses. When packing up, it goes without saying that sewer hoses are unsanitary. Therefore, they must not be laid across picnic tables. Moreover, having a separate hose to rinse out sewer hoses into the sewer receptacle is encouraged while holding them up to a faucet for cleaning is highly discouraged.
