Because a little “liquid sunshine” doesn’t have to dampen your fun
Rain, Rain, Let’s Still Play!
At Twin Bridge Campground, we believe that every camping trip is an adventure—rain or shine. While sunny skies are ideal, there’s something incredibly cozy and memorable about camping in the rain. With the right mindset and a few smart preparations, your rainy getaway can be just as magical.
What to Pack for Rainy Day Camping
- Waterproof Tent & Tarp: Make sure your tent has a rainfly that covers completely and sealed seams. A ground tarp or footprint underneath will help keep water out from below.
- Rain Gear: Don’t forget rain jackets, waterproof boots, and quick-dry layers. Avoid cotton—it holds moisture and makes you cold.
- Extra Socks & Towels: Nothing boosts morale like dry feet. Bring spares for everyone!
- Camping Chairs with Covers: Or use large garbage bags to keep your seating dry when the showers pass.
- Dry Bags: Keep electronics, books, clothes, and bedding safe from the elements.
Fun Things to Do When It Rains
Rainy days are perfect for slowing down and enjoying the little things. Here are some fun ways to pass the time at your campsite or under cover:
- Board Games & Cards: Play under a canopy or in your RV for cozy laughs.
- Read by Lantern Light: Curl up with your favorite book and a warm blanket.
- Cook Comfort Food: Cooking on a rainy camping trip is a wonderful way to make memories with your family and friends.
- Nature Crafts: Use wet leaves, rocks, or twigs to create rainy-day art projects with the kids.
- Take a Walk: If it’s just a light drizzle, enjoy a peaceful stroll—the forest smells amazing in the rain!
Tips for Making the Most of It
- Stay Warm: Bring extra blankets and wear wool or synthetic layers that keep you dry and insulated.
- Embrace the Ambience: The sound of rain on a tent roof, or on the metal roof of an RV, is one of the most relaxing experiences in camping.
- Adjust Your Pace: Let go of your schedule and embrace the slower rhythm of nature. It’s the perfect time to unplug.
