RE: Fresh Water Hose Length?

[van castle]

 We carry a 20ft freshwater hose in our camper. In the past 18 months we have set up in about 35 different camp sites and I don t recall hooking up 20ft from a freshwater source. What length hose do you prefer?

2 - 25 ft hoses, and we have used both of them...

I also have two 25 foot lengths and a 10 foot hose. I ve used them all.

We originally carried one 25 foot hose.  Last year we had one site that needed a longer hose, so off to Wal Mart.
 
 For locations I am familiar with I only carry one, if I don t know I carry both now.

We have been to one campground where we needed both our 25 foot and our 50 foot hose.  We thought we were missing our service post until one of the kids pointed out that it had the site number on it.  All the rest of the 50+ campgrounds we have popped up in have only needed the 50 footer or less.  Most (85-90%) only need the 25 footer.

0 , nada, don t carry one as we usually dry camp and the one or two times a year where we do have water, we just run to the spigot for water, or more often than not, bring our own bottled water.

We have a 25  one, but I m looking into getting a 50  also. There are two campsites we love that are 50+ feet from a spigot, so we ll take the 50  one to those. Most of the time the 25  one does the job.

We have 2 25  hoses. I m thinking of cutting 1 of them in half. Seems that lots of the places we go have the post right by the trailer.  Just hate having 25  of hose to wipe off and put away when 5  would have done the job.

Must be nice to always be near the water sources! lol
 
 We have 2-25  and 2-50  water hoses. Occasionally, we could have used an extra 50 footer.
 
 For electric, the trailer has a 25  cord and we have 2 additional 30-amp 25  cords. A couple of 12  cords, capable of handling 15 amps each, are used on most trips (electric water heater & electric heater).
 
 Have used them all a few times.

We carry a 50  with us.Would rather be safe and have the extra length with us.That way we can setup in the site as we want.[]We also carry an extra 25  30 amp service extension cord.

Ours is 25  and it s always been plenty.  The only time I ever saw it an issue was last fall when we were at Petit Jean SP, Arkansas.  Seems that in Arkansas SP s, water hook-up is not alway on the left side of the camper after you back in.  At some sites, it s on the right side.  Not a big deal if your ready for it but you can find yourself without enough hose.

We have a 50 foot and it has been fine at all places to the best of my memory.  Sometimes we had to take the direct route but we made it work.  When ever possible we do not like to back staight in but we try to put it across the back, this usually puts us away from the hookups.  Of course at Sp s around here the hose is not needed as there are no hookups.

I have 2 hoses.  A 10 foot one that I use when filling our water tank and at the two campgrounds we were at the had water hookups.  I also have another hose, that I think is 25 feet.  I have not used it in so long I don t remember how long it is.

2 25  hoses, have been places where I needed the second one.
 I have a $1.00 thingee that sorta holds the hose. At the very least my hose is not going everywhere.
 Wynot has a wonderful round thing I would like to have one or 2 of for my hoses and big electric extention.
