Sending a big thank you to RIO Brands for partnering with me on this post. All opinions are my own.
Have you ever taken your family tent camping? Last year, my husband braved it for the first time with some of the kids, in October no less. (We live in Minnesota so you just never know what kind of weather you’ll see at the beginning of October.) Well, our youngest was almost 3 so I stayed back with her and we caught up with the group in the morning. And honestly, I’m really glad that’s how we did it. We were severely under-prepared. But this year, our youngest has now just turned 4 and I spent the last couple of months gathering the supplies we’d need to make this trip successful. And that includes stocking up on some awesome RIO Brands gear.
Camping Gear = Successful Trip
Last year, we only had a four person tent. So the first thing on my list was getting a tent to accommodate us all. I tracked one down earlier this summer so now it was time to gather some more supplies. With seven of us heading out this year, I wanted to make sure we had our bases covered.
RIO Brands To The Rescue
RIO Brands doesn’t only offer some amazing camping gear. They also have some great beach gear, deck gear, patio furniture, and accessories. But to help us prepare for our upcoming family camping trip, they sent us some must haves.
Centerfold Table
There’s nothing worse than camping and having nowhere to put your food or supplies. Whether making a meal or toasting s’mores, having a safe place to keep things clean and off the ground is a necessity. And this Centerfold Table is perfect! Not only does it fold in half, it features an aluminum/steel frame with a melamine table top that is heat-resistant up to 425°. The integrated handle makes for easy transporting to and from the campsite. And it’s lightweight to boot, weighing in at just over 12 pounds. Definitely ideal for camping, RV’ing, tailgating, camping, holiday parties, and anywhere tables are used.
Stainless Steel Cooler
Keeping food and beverages safe and cool is always a good idea. So when you’re gone camping, you’ll want to do the same. This Tommy Bahama 54 Quart Stainless Steel Cooler can hold up 85 cans and even features a bottle opener on the side. So pack it up and head on out! Strong and durable, the easy grip handles makes it a breeze to carry on all your adventures. Plus, the stainless steel body and rust-proof drain cap for added convenience ensures that this cooler will last a long time.
Director’s Chair
Sitting around the campfire is a staple when it comes to camping. And I LOVE that this Broadback Director’s Chair offers both comfort and performance. Both wider and taller than most director’s chairs, RIO Brands Chair features an oversized powder-coated steel frame. The easy-to-clean fold out table is home to a tablet slot, cell phone slot, and drink spot. And the padded foam arm rests offer both comfort and support. But the features don’t stop there! You’ll also find that this amazing chair has a vented sling design for airflow, flat fold for easy carry and storage, and carry straps. Plus, it’s rated to hold up to 300#! So, in short, this is one AWESOME chair that is definitely a must have!
Smart Cot L Plus
Honestly, since this will be my very first tent camping experience, I’ll admit something. I was NOT excited to be sleeping on the ground. However, I’m really excited to say that now I don’t have to thanks to my new Smart Cot L Plus! Featuring the added convenience of a carry bag that is attached to the cot frame and doubles as dry storage, it is one of the best cots I’ve ever seen! The innovative design eliminates the need for end bars while also providing more ankle and head comfort. By utilizing patented Tension Locks, this cot has no loose pieces, no end bars! Seriously genius! Because of the smart technology, set up takes just 30 seconds. It’s amazing. And the weight capacity is 300#.
Camping Made Easy
So as you can see, RIO Brands really helps make your camping trip easy. They have some great necessity pieces that you will never leave without again. High quality, well made gear is what they are known for and it’s easy to see why.

I have been camping and loving it for decades.
This was always how we vacationed as kids and still enjoy.
Everything from tents, to cabin cruiser boats to pop ups…
Living in Florida all our lives has made it awesome too.
So diverse. from beaches, to woods to springs to everglades. LOVE it.
I have always loved camping but I have to admit since I became senior I am not comfortable on the ground. The cots look like they are calling my name.
