2010 Camping

[wildwings]

I love camping out at El Dorado I! Unfortunately, last year we couldn't make the weekend. I find $750 to be a bit outrageous for sleeping for the few nights we will be there. Hell most of the time we're inside partying and listening to music.

Is it me or is $750 excessive? :mad:

[arobb5]

It is crazy to pay that much to sleep, but hey, people forked it out so i do not expect it to go down! My first year i was in ED2 and it was amazing. Last year we were in tent... It was fun because we made the best of it and the people that camp there are amazing, But i would not go back to tent camping. To many rules. But hey, you live and learn right? Never let it ruin an amazing weekend! ha ha.

[Joey]

750 is extreamly excessive... ED 2 will sell out fast so get them in 8 days... it's a third of the prices and it's were all the fun is!!!

Im buying my red cups Now!!!







SC 07 08 09 looking forward to 2010!!!!

[Strunkas]

ED II is by far my favorite camping grounds! we have some friends who are always in in ED I, but always come to ED II to parties. I wouldnt change it for the world. SO worth it, ED II is priced good..and A GREAT time. Its wild, but fun.

[arobb5]

yes it is... well worth the money!

[UKNOWME]

I was in ed2 last year and it was awesome the only benefit to ed1 is the power but i have a generator so i don't need it. i just run my gen to power the music till 4 am don't plan on going to sleep b4 then unless you pass out drunk. cant wait Ive been chomping at the bit for weeks now waiting for the info to come out so i could put in for the days off and now i have and already have all 4 days off yeeehaaaa her i come baby!!!!!!!

[SASSYLEL]

Question about the camping for 2010-it has gone from $50 to $100. Does EACH person still need a camping pass? Under the camping information, it states that the spaces are now "huge" and you can cram as many people in as you want.

[UKNOWME]

the way it sound you can put as many people in you space as possible. i reed somewhere on there page that wristband will be giving out when you check in but there was no number of how many you get.

[arobb5]

Your talking about the tent camping right?

[IheartMillerLite]

So it says for ED1 you get 6 wristbands but it doesn't say anything for ED2. Just says to cram as many as you want into your RV. How can we get into ED1 to visit people over there? Yes, I'm RVing it this year. Dealing with the tent drama was SO not worth it.

[arobb5]

thats exactly how i feel. They will prob give you wristbands when you get there like they did at WWF.

[SASSYLEL]

Yes, I am referring to the tent camping. This year EACH person had to have a camping pass. I'm wondering if this is still the same, given that the price has gone to $100, and how it reads on the website. ??????? HELP!

[ValinVegas]

also confused about tent camping??????? is it $100.00 for the spot and you can fit as many people as possible?????? If thats the case, does that mean anyone can go in there with a festival ticket?? if thats the case its going to be INSANELY crowded...so confused?!!? DEFINITELY considering renting an RV if thats the case.....

[UKNOWME]

trust me its worth getting an RV they don't even care what you bring in the never check the RV's i had 6 36packs in mine last year. in ed2 the cops don't even care i was drinking right from the can talking to the cops.

[arobb5]

yes RV is def the way to go... Last year in tents they pulled out all my underwear looking for beer. I was discusted because their hands were nasty and i really didnt want to wear my undies after that! UH!!! NASTY NASTY PEOPLE! ha ha... I am RVing it for sure... Not even a thought in my mind. uh.

[arobb5]

Plus an RV filled with young girls ready to party... Who could pass up that? hahaa

[UKNOWME]

yes RV is def the way to go... Last year in tents they pulled out all my underwear looking for beer. I was discusted because their hands were nasty and i really didnt want to wear my undies after that! UH!!! NASTY NASTY PEOPLE! ha ha... I am RVing it for sure... Not even a thought in my mind. uh.

maybe we should have them search your rv just so you dont wear undies ;)

[UKNOWME]

J/K but ed2 is the way to go hand down!!!!!!!!!

[festivalfan]

Hi, rather than answer individually, I'll post this info. For those of you that have asked me about my trailer rental from last year.. I used Alberts Trailer Rentals. "Bert" is great to work with and took very good care of us who rented from him last year . He'll do the same for us this year too. His website is AlbertsRVrental.com, his phone number is 1 858 922 8626. Check out his rental units then call him for a quote. I spoke with him this morning already, so he's been updated. FUN FUN FUN !!!!!

[KittyLeigh]

Anyone know if a tent is allowed in your RV space? As long as you're within your assigned space?

[arobb5]

hahahaahah! I will make sure i hide some! haha. I washed mine in the bathroom sink because i was so mad after they went through my stuff... Home boy was eating a bag of chips, licked his fingers and started going through my clothes. Didnt even wash his hands... Needless to say i was not a happy camper.

That is disgusting....:eek:

[snappyjoy]

kitty - yes we did the ED1 and had 2 tents in the space also. Plenty of room, especially if you park next to someone you know. you have a little more space.. its great. we had a total blast.

[aaronchester08]

ok two questions:

is it $100 per tent camping sight? or per person?
& for tent campers they raid your stuff looking for alcohol!?

[Kymery]

ok two questions:

is it $100 per tent camping sight? or per person?
& for tent campers they raid your stuff looking for alcohol!?

This seems to be the cost for this year...yeah a bit amazing huh? It is going to be insane that "anyone with a festival ticket" can get into the campgrounds. There goes the neighborhood!!
Yes...they raided the Tent campers stuff. As for the RV I hadn't heard of anyone's RV raided. I was told to keep our liquor within our camping spot, but at night everyone was walking everywhere with it.

[arobb5]

Yes in tent camping they go through everything! Cloths, coolers, bags or blankets ... everything. They even opened up my EZ-UP to make sure nothing was in it! It was crazy. You just have to be creative. Some of them were better then others. So just make sure you hide it really good so if they squeeze it or shake it it wont fall out or anything. Last year at night people just started throwing stuff over the fence.

[tractorpilot]

Hey Kitty,

We had a tent in our space last year in EDII, no problem..

Regards, Hamshog

One thing to consider is weather You RV has slide outs. if it does it takes up a lot of Your space. My Rv doesn't we had 2 tents @ our site still had plenty of room

[UKNOWME]

OK just to clear things up i have a friend who stayed in tent camping and the SC staff went threw everything looking for alcohol/beer. I was in ed2 and the didn't even ask or look or anything we even left in my truck to get more because we ran out and brought it back in i know for ed2 we walked around everywhere drinking i even stopped and was drinking a beer (from the can) talking to the cops. but they will not let you take it out of the fenced area or you will get busted buy the cops.ow ya and we started out with 6 36packs in the trailer and had to go get 2 more..

[Kymery]

You can fit a tent under out slide out, due to in the upper room of the 5th wheel, but yes on motorhomes, you wouldnt...or just put a tarp around the slide out and call it a tent:D

[HamsHog]

Hey Tractorpilot,

We had our 35' travel trailer w/ slide out, a 16 x 10 tent and my truck on the site with the awning extended. Fit just fine!!!

Not sure if it's been answered, but from what I understand, the tent camping is $100 for a 10'x30' space and you can put as many people as will fit there for that ONE price...

[UKNOWME]

has anyone else noticed that there is no more off site camping like in past years there is just ed1 ed2 int. and tent no ave.52 or other of site like in past years that means even more people trying to get in to the already limited camping areas

[Countrygurl]

that was a parking lot and it was only last year that it existed.

as far as real offsite camping, check the offsite camping page
http://stagecoachfestival.com/visitors/offsite-camping. That will be updated soon too.

[Kymery]

What about the family campground, is that there this year?

[UKNOWME]

it just seems to me if the camping sold out last year that they might want have more camping areas like ed2 this year.

[UKNOWME]

What about the family campground, is that there this year?

yes its the INTERNATIONAL area.

[UKNOWME]

Countrygurl your the best you have all the answers.

[Countrygurl]

i have some tips too. for example.. when the line up changes/additions/etc. it takes a while for me to get an updated poster, but i can update the text part on the line up by day page instantly. so check there for the latest.

:)

very handy dandy :) thanks!

[UKNOWME]

countrygurl
so weather i have 10 people with me when i check in to the camping or i just bring my camper and i have 9 people coming the next day i just tell them i need 10 wristbands and ill get them when i check in wright?

[Countrygurl]

You can have as many people as you want camping in your rv. just make sure everyone planning to camp with you has a festival ticket. other details will be posted as we get closer to the event. stand by.

[UKNOWME]

well ya that just makes sens im just wondering on how they will be determining who what where when it comes to the camping area.

[Kymery]

well ya that just makes sens im just wondering on how they will be determining who what where when it comes to the camping area.

Exactly!! That is my concern...and I am being asked if there are ins/outs with our RV passes still.

I dont think this was all thought out. THERE IS NO WAY IN HELL people will be able to arrive with ALL their campers...so they better have an unlimited amount of RV camping wristbands for whomever has a festival ticket. How are they gonna prove they are actually camping and not scaverenging our campsites??????

And what about RV and Tenters...will they have in/out privelages to the festival as in the past too?

To me this just seems that the festival will allow in/outs for EVERYONE???

[UKNOWME]

The web sit sees that there will be wristbands and only onsit campers will have in and out privelags. So I wouldn't worry about that.and yes tent campers will be allowed in to all camping areas.

[Kymery]

The web sit sees that there will be wristbands and only onsit campers will have in and out privelags. So I wouldn't worry about that.and yes tent campers will be allowed in to all camping areas.

But doesn't it also say that if you can fit a million people (ok exageration) people in your tent area, then you can, so long as they have a "festival" ticket??? So that means anyone can say they are tenting it or RVing it, and get a camping pass.

And this year, talk about fights...people were told they could not leave and come back even if they had an RV!!! several fights at the gates. The right hand didn't know what the left hand was doing.

[UKNOWME]

I'm sure it will all come out in the next few months. I'm sure ther not going to let the whole world in the camping area.

[Kymery]

Well, I hope so. Cuz tickets go on sale next week, and for 09 it was a cluster on the $50 "per person" tent camping and people got screwed cuz they sold out and people were not told from TM that it was not longer $50 per site, but per person. Only a very very small percentage of people attending SC come on here to read all of this.

From working with WWF over the past year, I know it can get crazy!! Believe me I know first hand, but these are issues that people need answers to asap.

[onebadcountryboy2613]

whats goin on folks??? so we decided to rv it up due to crappy tent camping last year, who's in?? oh yeah and this year i promise to actually hang out for more than an hour....lol

[Wolfpac]

Tents are allowed in your 20x50 space, I have been in EDI for the past 3 years but if it is $500 more just for power, then EDII here i come with my Geni

[UKNOWME]

That's how it was last year too

[cotodad]

Anyone know if the 30 amp or the 50 amp parking are closer to the event entrance? I can use either one and I just want to park as close as possible.

[aaronchester08]

is it $100 per site OR per person?

[knelwood]

Hi guys,
So I am new to CA and some friends and I are going to do stagecoach this year. I've been to Country Thunder in AZ, and the tent/RV camping is all together. Is it better to do tent camping or just rent an RV and go to ED 2?

[UKNOWME]

ED2 is the way to go if you can afford it they are super strict in the tent area no alcohol what so ever in there.

[UKNOWME]

if you buy a camping pass for ed 2 you are guaranteed a spot but the earlier you get there the better spot you get i go out on Thursday night and i stay till Monday morning... you don't want to try to get your RV out Sunday night concert doesn't end till like 1130 and everyone party's afterwords

[knelwood]

Do you have to have a trailer or RV to camp in ED 2 or can you do it in a tent?

[UKNOWME]

All RVs, trailers & other such vehicles must be classified as a "vehicle made for sleeping" to enter RV camping. How ever if you know someone taking an RV you can put a tent in there RV spot as long as there RV is there too

[knelwood]

Ok thanks, I'll see what we can figure out!

[UKNOWME]

that's what where all hear for happy to help

[arobb5]

Hey, I know it says no BBQ's but do they actually enforce that? I have never brought one but i wasnt sure if any of you did.

[UKNOWME]

i took one last year and cooked dinner on it every night no one seed anything to me kinda like the whole beer thing you know they say it but don't realty enforce it in the RV camping. i have heard of them telling people that they cant do it but did not make them stop making dinner just seed no more after that but that's was just what one person told me last year on hear but i didn't experience that there where people with full on BBQ going last year so i wouldn't worry about it

[arobb5]

Ok.... That sounds good. Thanks!

[Raquellita]

is it $100 per site OR per person?

Per person

[knelwood]

if you do tent camping, can you get into ED 2 as well just to hang out?

[tgcali]

if you do tent camping, can you get into ED 2 as well just to hang out?

Yes. You can visit all the campgrounds.

[Raquellita]

Unless they changed the rules, I believe you can use your wristband to visit all the camping sites. Don't quote me though because things are changing every year.

[UKNOWME]

if you do tent camping, can you get into ED 2 as well just to hang out?

yes you can just remember tents = no alcohol in camping area

[tgcali]

Unless they changed the rules, I believe you can use your wristband to visit all the camping sites. Don't quote me though because things are changing every year.

They've still got that in the rules. It specifically says for tent campers that they can have access to the RV lots as well. Unless they changed it in the last few days, which is possible.....:p

[knelwood]

If it wasn't like 600 to rent an RV on top of the camp spot it would be easy. So maybe we'll just come over to ED 2 and go back to sleep ha. Thanks everyone!

[Cooter]

Per person

wrong.

[tgcali]

If it wasn't like 600 to rent an RV on top of the camp spot it would be easy. So maybe we'll just come over to ED 2 and go back to sleep ha.

I know we're sounding like a broken record here, but remember, no alcohol in tent camping. They were brutal with the searches last year. That's why a large group of us got together and split the costs on RVs for EDII. I will NOT go through that experience again.

[tgcali]

is it $100 per site OR per person?

Cooter is right. It's per site. You can have as many people as you want in the site, as long as everyone has a festival ticket.

[tgcali]

I just said Cooter was right:eek:..........Um, um, it's Monday. That's my story and I'm sticking to it.....:p

[Cooter]

i'm right a lot, it's just sometimes people don't like to be wrong ;)

[knelwood]

I appreciate all the help. We just have a small group this year b/c no one has gone before.

[tgcali]

i'm right a lot, it's just sometimes people don't like to be wrong ;)

Only sometimes? Making sense tends to be frowned upon.

[tgcali]

I appreciate all the help. We just have a small group this year b/c no one has gone before.

It's an experience. Absolutely one of the best at that. Just ask the questions that aren't answered on the website, make a plan and be prepared to go with the flow. You'll have a fabulous time!

[Raquellita]

wrong.

Really?

[Raquellita]

Cooter is right. It's per site. You can have as many people as you want in the site, as long as everyone has a festival ticket.

Wow, they changed it then huh? My bad. Sorry for the incorrect informaiton.

[Raquellita]

I just said Cooter was right:eek:..........Um, um, it's Monday. That's my story and I'm sticking to it.....:p

LOL too funny

[tgcali]

Wow, they changed it then huh? My bad. Sorry for the incorrect informaiton.

This year (2009) and last year when we camped next to each other (2008) it was $50 per adult. This time (2010) it's a much bigger spot for $100 and you can cram all the peeps you want to into it.

[Raquellita]

Things sure change from year to year huh?

[tgcali]

They certainly do. None of the rules we had a couple of years ago seem to apply anymore. Keeping us on our toes!

[Raquellita]

Thanks

[NutsAboutCountry]

Yeah we have tent camped for the past 3 years, always have fun, but last year it was a joke getting in, the searching of everything. Oh well goin back for the fourth year, me and my daughter always have fun. but now it's a hundred bucks instead of fifty to camp in a tent. now thats a little pricey!!!! watcha gonna do, if you wanna go you gotta pay i guess, more and more every year! ut we are still ready for Stagecoach 2010!

[IheartMillerLite]

It's more money to tent camp but you get a much larger space....the price is for the space, not per person.

[calichristina]

so then basically everyone can come into the tent camping area since they will have a ticket?
is that the same for rv camping to?

[dnb4ever]

We are coming from san diego. Anyone out there interested in sharing rv? We rented one the last two years and rv is definately the way to go, but with the present economic situation, would be nice to share expense of rv with some cool folks.

[misspatty86]

Me too! But yea I agree, it is way too expensive!

[Raquellita]

wrong.

Oops! My bad
