Yeah I would probably hate camping myself.
It is specially bad when you have never done it before.
What made it bad for you?
Single worst experience of my life. I will never camp again.

RV? Are you sixty ing years old, DD? Camping is the you do in tents to get the away from the tourists you were complaining about tbh.

That is not camping. That is staying at a hotel.
Have to agree with BB and Drachen. Granted, everyone has their own opinion on what it means to be camping. I'm more for the "sleeping in tents" concept though
Back in the day, I once went camping and stayed in an RV, wasn't the same.
These days I only camp where their are nice hotels & room service...
Yeah. Camping is done in tents imho
Lol dd ruined, should have put "camping" in quotes instead of "waste" tbh
Ewwww I didn't know people actually used those toilets!
We had an RV when I was a kid, we weren't allowed to use the toilet because Dad said it was for "emergencies" (meaning "nuclear holocaust" only); so we made gas station runs or dug a hole.
white people.
I'm a true americanI know how it truly feels to survive the wilderness in my RV
That's not nearly as stupid as anyone who thinks "surviving in the wilderness" is something you go out of your way to do.

I've never understood whats so fun about sleeping in a tent (or RV for that matter) in some forest that's infested with mosquitos and other bugs, having to in a hole, and having to work 10x as hard as normal to prepare meals on what's supposed to be a "vacation".
If that type of lifestyle is so fun, there are plenty of countries in Africa, Southeast Asia and South America where you can live like that 100% of the time and not have to worry about like a job, the electric bill or car payments.
Truth Bomb
Try telling my immigrant parents to go camping. There's a reason they emigrated - that ain't a novelty.
That is like saying why work out - it's not fun, it's hard to do and you have to work 10x harder than those fat people that just eat and drink everything they want!
There is an element of doing something a little harder that is fun to people and being outside, in nature & away from the phones, e-mails....can be very rewarding and entertaining if you are into the outdoors. If you have never spent time camping with friends enjoying water, hiking and drinking by the fire then IMO you are missing out.
You also look better than those fat people, lower your risk for idk how many different diseases, live longer, feel better, and aren't as repulsive to people of the opposite gender as someone who's fat. I really don't see how camping produces those kinds of positive results, so it's not the same at all
Maybe it's just because Phoenix has tons of hiking trails, but I've gone hiking idk how many times without having to set up a tent and camp. I've also been to idk how many parties with friends where there was a bonfire we all sat around and drank. I've also turned my phone and computer off when I wanted to be away from phone/email. I've managed to do all that without having to give up the luxury of plumbing and a bed.
Civilization did not evolve into what it is today so people can still live in the woods.
They disagree.
Redzero with the hook-n-sinker hipsterish goods
It depends what the purpose of the trip is.
I'd love to camp out in some of the parks in the Northwest US/Alaska for like 3-4 days just for the experience.
However, I'm not gonna camp in Stinky Goat Creek, out in the middle of nowhere, because it's a waste of time. After the first 3 hours I know I'm gonna be tired of inhaling skunk piss and I'd be ready to head back to civilization. I'd rather spend my time not staring at the same river for 4 days
dpg knows what's up. Camping ain't for everyone but if you're into the outdoors, it can be fun as . I won't camp anywhere there is not a body of water though.
EXACTLY. Tbis was a campground outside of Niagara Falls by Lake Ontario, not some wilderness adventure.
Emptying the ter sucked no doubt, but it sure as beat tenting it last year.
I'll be the guy chilling in the ac while you can be the got sitting out in 95 degree heat with sweat dripping off your balls and mosquitoes and horse flies biting your gooch.
Camping just sucks period, unless it's an exotic locale an isolated from most of civilization. Redzero hit the nail on the head, tbh.
Camping is fun. Different people find different things rewarding or annoying/bothersome. Personally, nothing about camping bothers me to the point where it outweighs the benefits.
Or the portable skillet used to make pancakes every morning
