Bottled water or Campground water?

[Gabbie]

When you are going to a campground to camp for a few days, do you prefer to bring your own water or do you use what the campground provides? We have been to some places where the water wasn't to bad, but then others........it was awful. So unless it is a place we have been to and know what kind of water they have, we will usually bring our own, although it can take up space.

I never go camping without a lot of bottled water. We hike all over the place when we camp so we need bottles of water to take with us. If we try the water and it is not bad, then we will refill our bottles of water at the campground.

I bring my own water plus a water filter just in case.

[Tubby]

Same here. I don't trust the water sources that are available until I see what is available. I ALWAYS take my filter with me. You never know where the local water is coming from.

Unless we are going some where we have been before and know the water is good there, we will bring some with us. It's just good to be prepared, I say and water is something you always need.

If the campground water tastes good, no reason not to go with it. If it doesn't taste good I have my filter.

If we have a cooler along I use frozen water bottles instead of ice, but we generally only drink that water on the last day.

We take water with us, but I wouldn't be opposed to using campground water. Our water at home is so bad I kind of forget you can drink it out of the tap!

I always bring water with me camping, because we do a lot of hiking. Also, most of the time we camp in primitive areas. I would drink campground water, but I would make sure it tasted okay first.

I always bring a lot of my own water until I see what's to be had where I'm going. In a pinch, though, I'll drink almost anything.

WE are right with ya Cottontail We figure for 1 gallon of water per person per day. We use it for drinking, cooking, coffee. But in survival mode, we drink what ever usuall boiling anything questionable first.
