Creator's Key Takeaways

we have never had a camper van before so this was a first for us

it did cost us $43 for the night which we weren't really wanting to pay but it means we can have a proper shower we can dump our waste

we're not weirdos we don't pee out orange stuff but the chemical tab is orange it turns all the liquids into an orange color makes them smell a little bit more pleasant

Creator's Tips & Advice

Use rubber gloves and chemical tablets when emptying waste for the first time
Consider paying for a campsite to have access to showers, waste dumping, and battery charging
Check for free parking spots in Lake Tahoe, but expect to pay for a campsite if none are available
