Distance between the two RV?

[Maria3002]

What distance should be between the two RV trailer that stays full year on campground. When they open slides is some space that must be between, how many feet?

A new trend is for them to make seasonals sign a waiver requiring them to not attach anything to the rig, have the rig ready to be moved when not occupied, and provide a log with dates the tenant plans to occupy giving them the permission to move the rig if they need the space/site, say for a weekend camper. It also releases them from any liability when/if they do move it. Expect this to become the norm. Don't like it, don't patronize.

Yep, that would be a hard NO from us too.

A very legit and good question. Ignore dirty dog and other SA repliers. I have never stayed in such tightly packed places and would not do so. My good luck and prior planning. Cheers.

There should be a tone of space if they are pulling in the same direction, I personally hate the sites that you are staggered in opposite directions so they can be lazy with installing power, sewer and water. being that close is a fire hazard and when you're in the trailer you can hear everything from the next one, so I won't go back to a place like that if I get there and fine it is like that, I have even turned around and got my money back and left for somewhere different before.

Legal minimum vs what you should accept.

A lot of places don't seem to have any legal minimum spacing.

Having seen a couple of RV fires, I would want a minimum 10ft between units (with slides open) and 15-20ft would be much better. If the fire gets hot, expect lots of damage from melting plastic parts.

That's why RVs have wheels so you can move on if you're not happy.

I dont want to hear my neighbors TV through the walls. If I wanted that I would get a hotel room.

I’ve run into a couple of campsites like the one described. Those don’t get a revisit.

I'd like a bit more room.

When you can hear the neighbor snoring you know you're too close.

WTH kind of question is this?

[Dutch_12078]

There is no defined spacing requirement, although zoning and permitting may have some input on that. Site spacing is up to the individual park owners. Some parks prefer to cram as many sites as possible into a given area to maximize income, while others allow more space aiming for happier guests that will return more often. The spacing can also be a consideration in the pricing. More space, higher prices.

Just my opinion, but enough to walk between them with all the slides deployed.
