Some Campsites Aren’t Good For A Teardrop Trailer

Filed under: Camping,Places To Visit,Teardrops & Tiny Trailers,Utah — Laura Moncur @ 9:00 am

Mike and I have loved how convenient our teardrop trailer has been, but we’ve actually found a site that makes having one inconvenient.

Some Campsites Aren't Good For A Teardrop Trailer

We were at Quail Creek Reservoir and the campsites have a bit of a hike from the picnic table and shade to the trailer. In fact, we can’t use our little galley at all, so we just set up our camp kitchen under the shade.

I tried something different with the water in an effort to make a nice water faucet for the sink. It wasn’t perfect, but it worked well enough to wash our hands and rinse dishes.

You can’t beat the view from my bed, though.

Despite the inconvenient campsite, we had a lovely weekend at Quail Creek and can’t wait to go back!

  1. Just curious about your camp kitchen, could you give details on how to set one up like that? Where did you get the table? Is that hose off of a coleman outdoor shower? Thanks!

  5. Margaret!

    I would love to see photos of your trailer. If you email them to me, I’ll post them on Starling Travel for everyone to see.
