RV life isn’t just a vacation—it’s an adventure, a comedy, and sometimes a test of patience all rolled into one. At Vee’s RV Ramada in sunny San Felipe, Baja California, we’ve hosted everyone from first-timers to seasoned road warriors, and if there’s one thing we know, it’s that every trip comes with its own set of hilarious truths. Whether you’re planning your first drive down the Baja or you’re practically a San Felipe local, here are 7 cheeky, totally true things that happen on every RV adventure (plus a few tips so you can laugh your way through them).
1. You’ll Forget Something Important. Every. Single. Time.
Toothbrush? Check. Favorite mug? Check. The one thing you absolutely need? Oops, it’s still on the kitchen counter. Don’t worry—San Felipe has shops, and improvising is half the fun. Pro tip: Make a checklist, but don’t stress when you still forget something. That’s part of the RV experience!
2. Someone Will Become the Official “Backer-Upper”
There’s always one person who claims they’re great at backing up the RV… until everyone in the campground is watching. Bonus points if you use walkie-talkies and still end up in the bushes. At Vee’s RV Ramada, we’ve seen (and helped!) plenty of creative parking jobs, so no judgment here.
3. You’ll Have Deep Conversations… About Holding Tanks
Nothing bonds a group like debating the best way to empty a black tank. Pro tip: Gloves are always a good idea. So is a sense of humor. Need help? Our staff is happy to offer tips (and maybe a spare pair of gloves).
4. The WiFi Will Disappear at the Worst Possible Moment
Just as you’re about to upload the perfect sunset photo, the signal vanishes. Welcome to real “disconnecting”—and trust us, you’ll survive (and probably love it). Use it as an excuse to swap stories around the campfire or finally finish that book you packed.
5. Every Meal Becomes a Picnic
Who needs a fancy restaurant when you’ve got a camp stove, a folding table, and a view of the Baja desert? Gourmet is a state of mind—and yes, s’mores count as dinner. Want to level up your camp cuisine? San Felipe’s local markets have fresh shrimp, tortillas, and more for easy, delicious meals.
6. You’ll Make Friends in the Strangest Places
Need a wrench, a cold drink, or tips on the best taco stand? RV folks are the friendliest around. By the end of your trip, you’ll have a dozen new stories (and maybe a few inside jokes). Don’t be shy—wave to your neighbors at Vee’s and you might leave with lifelong friends.
7. You’ll Already Be Planning Your Next Trip Before You Leave
San Felipe sunsets are addictive. Don’t be surprised if you’re mapping out your next route before you even hit the highway home. Our returning guests say it best: once you’ve experienced the Baja magic, you’ll want to come back again and again.

Real Guest Story: “We Came for a Weekend and Stayed a Month!”
