RV camping is a great way to unwind from the hustle and bustle of the big city and to unplug from technology.   

With an RV, you can enjoy the great outdoors while enjoying home-like comfort. You get to have the extra space for sleeping comfortably and cooking like you’re at home. 

But gearing up for an RV camping adventure is no menial task. With the extra amenities the RV offers, you will also need more things to pack to make your camping adventure a relaxing and fun getaway.  

An upgraded sleeping quarter means bringing more bedroom items like bedding, pillows, and blankets. 

An RV kitchen means better cooking quality as long as you bring the food!

With so much to bring, it’s best if you make a checklist of the essential items you need to pack weeks before your RV camping adventure. 

Without a list, packing can be stressful. Imagine getting to the campground, and you discover that you forgot something essential? Sounds terrible!

You also don’t have to bring all of your things at home—just the essential items you require for camping. 

So make a list and check it twice to ensure a fun and successful out-of-town trip. 

Kitchen needs 

RVs allow you to prepare and cook meals easily with its built-in mini kitchen. While cooking over an open fire is a great camping option, it takes more time and effort. Plus, when you’re on your way to the campgrounds, you won’t have to make a stop at a restaurant to eat. You can do it right inside your RV! 

Below are some of the recommended kitchen items you need to bring: 

  • eating utensils (spoon and fork) plates and bowls 
  • drinking cups 
  • pots and pans 
  • knives and a cutting board 
  • measuring cups and spoon 
  • can and bottle opener 
  • other cooking utensils such as tongs, spatula, metal flipper 
  • napkins and paper towels 
  • dish soap

Items for sleeping 

Using an RV will help you become refreshed when camping. It allows you to enjoy the what nature has to offer—fresh air, the smell of greenery, etc. at the comfort of your own space. You can open your windows to allow in the night air or set the heat to ensure a good night’s sleep in any weather. 

Just be sure to bring with you your sleeping essentials to enjoy your overnight in your RV. 

  • sheets for all the beds 
  • pillows and pillowcases 
  • extra blankets and/or sleeping bags
