Portable and light on your load, this is a must-have for camping in our opinion!
Bodega TWW35 Dual-Zone Electric Cooler
It’s by far and away the best electric cooler for the money available right now.

It’s the top-selling tumbler on the market today.

Plus they keep releasing new colors and options. This one is Matte which we love!
YETI Hopper M12 Soft Backpack Cooler

It works in the middle of the forest and at your kids’ soccer games.
GoSun Solar Table 60
The GoSun Solar Table is my favorite camping table of all time.
Not only is it a nice-sized table, but it’s got a 60-watt solar panel built in.
We use this to supplement our other solar panels to keep our electric cooler and power station fully loaded.

What better way than to lounge around the campfire than in this Loveseat?
Kelty’s version is top-of-the-line and makes the perfect gift for campers of all ages.

It can hold 203 lbs total, more than enough to handle your camping grill, paper towels, utensils, side dishes, and more.
YETI Roadie 24 Cooler
We love the YETI Roadie 24 cooler and use it exclusively for drinks. This version is 10% lighter than the original but has 20% more capacity.
It’s sized just right to fit most wine bottles upright or stack your beer and soda evenly.
But the best part is that it’s the right height to use as a stool as well. YETI’s are expensive but are the best coolers for camping. You won’t regret paying a premium for this cooler.
Camping Stocking Stuffers For Women (Gifts Under $30)
Owala FreeSip® Water Bottle
A new player in the water bottle game, the Owala FreeSip® is a great addition to anyone’s water bottle collection.

When completely full, this flask can hold up to 10 fluid ounces of any liquid.
Nimble CHAMP Portable Charger
This portable charger really packs a punch! Even though it’s smaller than a deck of cards, the Nimble CHAMP Portable Charger will keep your phones and other small devices charged throughout your camping adventure.
