With how long I\u2019ve been doing van life, I\u2019ve experienced all kinds of neighbors at my campsites. I\u2019ve had good neighbors who are kind, mindful of their noise, and respectful by keeping some distance between us. I\u2019ve also had neighbors who have shared firewood, kitchen utensils, and advice for exploring the local area. I think we can all agree that these are the kinds of courteous camping neighbors we all hope for when we settle in on a Friday night.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

On the opposite end of the spectrum, I\u2019ve also had horrible campsite neighbors who have no concept of camping etiquette. Recently Ryan and I were down in Moab camping at a popular dispersed camping area. The people parked closest to us were playing music louder than a nightclub until 6 in the morning, shooting guns (where it definitely wasn\u2019t legal), and shining their vehicle headlights directly on our campsite making it impossible to enjoy a night under the stars.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Needless to say, our dogs were freaked, we couldn\u2019t sleep, and frankly we were pretty pissed that people could be so inconsiderate.\u00a0<\/p>\n

My golden rule while camping is that me having a good time shouldn\u2019t affect your ability to have a good time.<\/strong> We should all be able to enjoy ourselves without negatively impacting those around us.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019ve been a Bearfoot Theory reader for a while, chances are, you are already a good campsite neighbor. But if you\u2019re new to camping<\/a>, you may not be aware of the unwritten campsite etiquette rules that good campers follow to create a positive atmosphere at the campground.<\/p>\n

So whether you\u2019re new to camping or seeking to improve your camping etiquette (that\u2019s awesome), below are simple campsite etiquette tips that will foster a more enjoyable and comfortable experience for everyone. <\/strong>Your future camping neighbor will thank you!\u00a0<\/p>\n
