When we first started camping in our travel trailer, I scoured Pinterest for all kinds of packing lists to help us get started on our journeys. I’m a planner – always have been and probably always will be – and I wanted to make sure we were completely, 100% prepared for any eventuality.
| The result? A lot of purchased gear we’ve never used, and a lot of extra Shopping expenses.
So I created a packing list for those of us who like to camp for long weekends, who don’t need to pack everything and the kitchen sink. (Some of these items you might even leave in your travel trailer for your next trip). This list would also work well for tent camping, too.
I included this list as a FREE printable below so you can print it out and check it off the next time you’re planning your weekend get away!
