Have you ever walked into a campground check-in office only to realize the place you just booked for your relaxing weekend has stricter rules than North Korea? Well, hang on because today we’re going to share with you seven common ways to be thrown out of a campground quicker than a greased pig down a slip and slide.

Whether you’re a seasoned camper or a newbie, knowing what not to do is just as important as knowing what to do. We found a video from the Camping Loop channel that highlights these missteps perfectly.

1. Arguing with Management

One of the quickest ways to get booted from a campground is by arguing with management. According to the video, “starting an argument with them when they come to ask you to turn down your tunes” is a surefire way to ruin your weekend. Campgrounds often have fine print that allows them to ask you to leave at any time for any reason.

So, if you don’t want to find yourself scrambling for a new spot, it’s best to keep your cool. After all, you don’t want to be that person who argues over a $10 early check-in fee. Remember, a little respect goes a long way.

2. Having a Junky Camper

Pulling into a campground with a dilapidated camper is another way to get shown the door. The video humorously notes, “if your rig needs four or five rolls of duct tape to hold it together or two or three tarps on the roof to keep it from leaking, you’re probably creating maybe a bit of an eyesore for your neighbors.”

While some parks may be flexible, others enforce a “10-year rule” for RVs. So, if your camper looks like it just rolled out of a junkyard, you might be asked to leave quicker than a one-legged duck can swim in a circle.

3. Not Supervising Your Kids

Letting your kids run wild is a big no-no. The video recounts a story of kids “burning garbage” and causing chaos while their parents were away. Unsurprisingly, the family was asked to leave the next morning.

It’s great to let kids have fun, but not at the expense of other campers. So, if you don’t want to be the talk of the campground for all the wrong reasons, keep an eye on your little adventurers. Otherwise, you might find yourself packing up faster than you can say “flaming marshmallows.”

4. Acting Entitled

Acting like you own the place is a guaranteed way to get kicked out. The video describes entitled campers who “show up all hours of the night flashing their high beams all over the place, completely ignoring quiet hours.”

If you think you’re a VIP at a five-star resort, brace yourself for a reality check. Campgrounds are about community and respect, not about demanding special treatment.

So, don’t be that person who complains about pine needles on the picnic table. Instead, enjoy the wilderness and don’t forget to pack a sense of humor.

5. Speeding on E-Bikes or E-Scooters

Speeding around the campground on e-bikes or e-scooters is a fast track to eviction. The video mentions seeing “management or owners come down and yell at these maniacs Riders.” These devices can reach speeds of up to 40 mph, which is not safe in a campground setting. So, slow down and enjoy the scenery.

After all, you don’t want to break a leg or worse, get kicked out for reckless riding. Remember, it’s a campground, not a racetrack.

6. Breaking the Pet Rules

Not following pet rules can get you and your furry friend evicted. The video shares a story about sneaking dogs into a no-pet facility, which is a big no-no. Even in pet-friendly campgrounds, not adhering to leash laws, barking rules, or cleanup policies can get you in trouble. So, make sure your pet is well-behaved and that you follow all the guidelines.

Otherwise, you might find yourself on the other side of the gate, with your pet giving you the side-eye for ruining the trip.

7. Having the Police Called

Finally, having the police called is the most obvious way to get kicked out. The video humorously lists reasons like “having one or two too many wobblers around the fire” or “smoking the devil’s lettuce.”

If the cops are called, it’s likely a one-way ticket out of the campground. So, keep your behavior in check and focus on enjoying the camping experience. After all, you don’t want your camping trip to end with a ride in a police car.
