Outside Shower

[Used 2B PopUPTimes]

Do you use your outside shower?

I've had 3 campers with an outside shower and only used it once when the dog rolled in a cow plop.  Other than that I thought it was a worthless option.

We use ours for washing our hair when showers aren't avail. and it comes in handy for rinsing dishes.

We set our "dishwashing station" next to the outside shower. I also installed a 12V porch light so we can see what we are washing.
We have used it as a shower a few times especially when we are near the beach (rinse off the sand and/or salt water).

We set ours up anytime that we camp 3+ days. We'd rather use our own shower than public showers:

We don't have an outside shower on our camper.  

DW bought a clearance priced Coleman outside shower enclosure and a solar shower bag three years ago.  Although I did a trial set-up of the shower enclosure in the garage once, we have never used them or even taken them with us on a camping trip yet.

We've only been on 2 trips, haven't had a chance to use the outdoor shower as of yet, but we do have both indoor and outdoor showers.  So I can't realistically answer on the poll because we do have one, but haven't used it yet.

Comes in real handy when you are boon-docking. from washing dishes to taking showers.
Love having the option, but it would be more useful if it was on the door side (curb) for dish washing

[brainpause]

Yes...so far we like having it to wash out the dutch oven, and to maybe wash hands after using the dump station. I have even used it to settle the dust around the area.

I use mine once in a while.  I would use it more if I had a matt or something to stand on while using it.  Any suggestions?

I've put a chair over there before to sit on while washing the sand off my feet.  That works ok.

We have never used ours, and quite frankly if I had the option next time to have one with out I wouldn't get one. For our use I can not see ever needing it.

Having had both an inside and outside shower on both our popup and now our Hybrid, it is something I could not do without.
We do a lot of beach camping, so it is used to clean the sand off the kids, as well as rinse off the wetsuits.
The kids have washed themselves out there, including shampooing their hair, but not DW or I.
During the winter, it is not used as much.

[OC Campers]

We use ours sometimes when we camp at the beach or to wash hands.

I use ours all the time.  Washing dishes, washing hands, taking showers.  It is used much more than the inside shower.

[Popupper]

After I setup the only time I go to the back of the camper is to adjust the water or refrig temp. I don't think I've opened the door on the outside shower.

We have had one on our past three rigs and really haven't made much use of them.  Occasionally used them to rinse things off or do the dishes.

I can think of a few times that I would have liked to have had one when our kids were young.

Now as far as my actually using it to take a shower, I can only think that my standing outside with little or nothing on would be the fastest way for anybody to clear out a campgorund.
