Our gift guides prioritize small businesses, those who are Canadian (or at least made in the USA), woman-, LGBTQ+-, and BIPOC-owned businesses, along with some other recommended essential gear we think would make a great gift.

Stocking Stuffers
TIVVI Stick Soap
No more bar soap melting at the bottom of the RV shower on travel days, or in your bag during a camping trip! TIVVI Stick Soap is the perfect stocking stuffer for travellers and outdoor adventurers.

CHR Co. Flash Fuel Instant Coffee
Flash Fuel is a unique instant coffee in that it uses coffee grounds. It combines the rich flavour of traditional coffee with the ease and quickness of instant coffee to create a delicious cup for the campsite or the trail. Flash Fuel comes in individual packets so you can pack exactly what you need – perfect for your next backpacking trip or sunrise hike to your favourite lookout.

Black Diamond Head Lamp
A quality head lamp with long battery life is a must have for campers and RVers. Once the sun goes down, you’d be surprised how often you need to find something in your pack or your storage compartments and there is NO LIGHT. We use our Black Diamond headlamps nearly every day when we’re on the road, so help out the camper on your list with this extremely useful gift. Once you have a headlamp, you never go back to pulling out your phone flashlight ever again.

UCO Candle Lantern
These super portable and collapsible candle lanterns are a must have at the campsite. They provide light and warmth in a handy lightweight, pocket sized format, perfect for car camping or stashing in the RV storage bin. A spring inside the lantern keeps the candle pushed to the very top, giving you 9 hours of burn time per candle, and the entire unit is made without plastic. Compact enough to fit in a stocking, but classic and useful enough to make a perfect standalone gift for campers and RVers alike.
Trip Chaser Card Game
Those rainy days in the RV are inevitable, and what better way to pass the time than a unique card game that keeps the spirit of adventure alive – even when you’re stuck inside!? Trip Chaser combines a fun blend of real life travel situations, strategy, and humour to create an afternoon of laughs around the picnic table. This card game was created by fellow Canadian travellers, and purchasing Trip Chaser means supporting a small Canadian business! Perfect for game night any time of year.
Overserved Sports Co. Pickleball Bag
Pickleball should be the official sport of RVing. More campgrounds than ever are building pickleball courts, and enthusiasts of all ages are taking up this social sport in their downtime. This pickleball bag has space for rackets, balls, water, and more so you or a friend can grab and go when it’s time to play. With 3 colour ways and multiple wearing options, there’s a bag for every pickleball player on your list.
Sun Earth Moon Parks Calendar
Bring the stunning landscapes of Canada and the United States into your home with Sun Earth Moon’s 2025 Parks Calendar. Grab a calendar showcasing Canadian gems, or one for the United States (or both!). Every month features a different National, Provincial, or State Park through the incredible art of Canadian Kelsey Voss. There is a calendar for every adventure buddy on your list, and makes the perfect little gift they can enjoy for the entire year!
So-Light Solar Lanterns
These solar lanterns come in many different shapes and sizes, and many of them double as a portable charger! They are perfect for the campsite, inside the tent, or the late night walk to the water. Hook them onto the back of your pack when on multi-night backpacking trips and they will charge through the day so that you have a light and a phone charger at night. So-light is a company you can feel good supporting – they strive to provide an alternative to fossil fuels, donate countless So-lights to countries affected by war and natural disaster, and donate 10% of all profits.
Campsite Luxuries
Kuma Outdoor Gear Bear Buddy Heated Chair
This Canadian company makes the most sought after outdoor gear for making your campsite the cosiest, most comfortable place to be! Among many products, we love the Bear Buddy chair that not only allows you to snuggle with someone you love, but can also keep you warm! The Bear Buddy chair comes in heated and non-heated, but as Canadians who love to be outside in the shoulder season (and even winter!), the heated option gives you the best of both worlds.
High Camp Flasks
These portable, insulated drinkware from High Camp Flasks make a stunning gift for any camper or outdoor adventurer. Perfect for a hike or around the campfire, High Camp Flasks keep your beverage of choice hot or cold for 24 hours and include two integrated magnetic tumblers so you can share with a friend. There are two designs – the Fireside Flask with a wider pour spout geared towards spirits, and the Firelight Flask perfect for a bottle of wine or hot apple cider. They make a beautiful gift for literally anyone on your list.
Must Have RV Gear
RV Lock
Did you know that most standard RV door locks use the same key – for every trailer!? That means your neighbour at the campground can probably unlock your door with their key. That fact alone is enough to upgrade to the RV Lock. Not to mention, the RV Lock allows for keyless pinpad entry, a fob to lock your door from your car when you inevitably forget, and provides peace of mind that your RV is secure. There are RV locks for every style of towable RV and motorhome. They offer many different products, including thumb locks for your storage compartments so that your whole RV can be keyed alike!

RV SnapPads
RV SnapPads are the ultimate in RV must have that meets ‘luxury’. No more putting down stacks of leveling blocks when unhitching. RV SnapPads stay on your jacks and landing gear all the time, so no matter what type of ground you park on, you have a level place to drop your jacks! These are very specific to the rig model and the size of your jacks, so if gifting these and they aren’t for your family’s rig… get yourself a gift card instead.

Camco Fasten RV Big Blocks
This new product from Camco saves you from having to stack aaalllll the leveling blocks under your landing gear or tongue jack. Instead, save time and use these Big Blocks, which can also accommodate leveling blocks on top if you need additional height. These are also great under your rear stabilizer jacks to give you firm support when stabilizing your rig. For the RVer who has all the usual gear already, these make a great gift to level up their unhitching and setup process.
Rivet Supply Co. Adventure Board
This is an absolute MUST HAVE for an RVer. We have about half a million stickers on our rig from all the locations we’ve visited, and the day will come when we get a new RV and have to part with them. Enter… the Adventure Board. This is a handmade and removable board that sticks onto your RV that can house all of your stickers. When you change rigs, your stickers can come with you! Currently, Rivet Supply Co. only ships within the US due to high shipping costs to north of the border, but if you’re in Canada and would like to get your hands on one, contact Melissa to see if she can ship one to you! These boards are handmade in the USA and Rivet Supply Co. is a small family business.

For the Adventurous Foodie
Adventures in the kitchen don’t have to stop just because you’re in the great outdoors! These gifts are great for the adventurous foodie in your life, whether in the camp kitchen or at home.
Gneiss Spice Magnetic Spice Jars
If I had a dollar for every time our spice jars came flying out of the cupboard after a travel day, let’s just say we’d be taking more vacations. Gneiss Spice’s magnetic spice jars have levelled up our RV kitchen aesthetic AND our cooking game. The magnetic spice jars attach right to your fridge, your range hood, or the handy metal wall mounts available. No more spices spilling everywhere during travel! Gneiss Spice is completely zero waste, certified organic, and a woman-owned company. Trust me, your foodie friend will be absolutely delighted to unwrap one of these spice sets (RVer or not).
