    Anyone have any recommendations on some good quality camping chairs that won't break my bank?

    I had some Coleman ones that lasted 10 years back in the day, but everything I've tried replacing them with barely last a couple years from extremely light use (kid's sports/practice and like 2-3 trips a year max).

    Prefer the traditional folding ones over the fold-flat style ones.

    I grabbed 14 Nights at Lower Lake in August to sell with my trailer. Figure the camping days may be as valuable as the trailer this weird year. lol.

    How did you get 14 nights in a row at same spot? Grabbed it first day it opened up?

    With the slide booking, if someone already has a weekend booked, and you book weekday ahead when there's an opening, will sliding it forward be blocked by the previous booking?

    I don't have any advice about slide booking.

    I booked my big block on the day it opened up. It's actually 16 days, Friday to Sunday, covering three weekends. I guess 16 is the max not 14.

    One tip a buddy of mine gave me, is if you are looking for certain dates, and have a second monitor, have the search query open on that monitor all day while you work, and it will auto refresh, so you can jump on any cancellations. There is allegedly a lot of churn out there.

    Aren't traditional folding chairs the fold flat ones?

    Who are you to judge my traditions? .

    I classify them as either "umbrella folding" or "flat folding". I have no idea what people think is traditional. Either way, Cabela's is a solid move for durable chairs.

    Obviously I'm kidding as it's against the rules to sell camping reservations.

    Costco has these padded chairs. Kind of hard to find at the moment though because they are pretty hyped but everyone says they are amazing. Downside is the size so if you don’t have a lot of room in your vehicle probably not a good idea

    If you are willing to go with the flat style, the Tommy Bahamas ones are pretty awesome but they sit a bit low so might not be the best for camping.

    Apparently Lordco sells a similar model but different brand (Kuma). $95 a pop tho but are usually in stock. See page two under the “lazy bear chair”

    Tommy Bahamas are sweet for a low chair, actually really comfortable once you are in it. Just need a few old guy grunts on the way down.

    I picked one of those padded chairs up last week from costco and it’s pretty comfy. It’s quite large though, folded in it’s carrying case is about the same size as my tent.

    As soon as they restock, they sell out. There is apparently some Costco group on Facebook and they post when they are in, which causes a rush.

    Very comfy chairs, warm as well because of the padding and dry out very quickly if they get wet
    See Crank. See Crank Walk. Walk Crank Walk.
