Vehicle camping is any vehicle used for camping during the event, such as RVs, pop-tops, trailers or campers choosing to sleep in their car.

What to expect

NEW for 2024: All camping vehicles must have an RV Pass in order to receive placement at ToorCamp.

ToorCamp has a few designated areas within Doe Bay where we can allow vehicle camping. These spaces are very limited, so we require all camping vehicles to have an onsite RV parking pass.

Vehicle camping spots are generally located in or near the existing parking lots on the property and will be grouped with other similar sized camping vehicles. There are more opportunities for camping vehicles that are under 20 feet in length, and due to our space limitations, vehicles over 25 feet are not allowed.

Once you have parked in your designated space, you will not be able to move your vehicle until the end of the event. There are no in & out privileges for vehicles used for camping. If you need to leave early (before Sunday), please let a member of Space Team know so that they can help direct you out safely.

Power & Hookups

Doe Bay's electrical situation has limitations, so we encourage you to plan ahead, as we cannot guarantee that we can bring power to your parking spot/campsite. There will be public outlets and opportunities to charge your devices.

Doe Bay does not have any RV hook-ups on the property.

Doe Bay discourages the use of generators, but, if necessary (to be determined on a case by case basis), they can be run minimally and respectfully.

Extra kudos if you are set up for boondocking!
