Best deer camp upgrades

Had a double wide carport put in. Have my old camp trailer in one side and the other side for shade and staying out of the weather. Cleaning station with winches, tables, concrete floors, water and a roof is mighty nice too. Those carports will keep that hot Texas sun from destroying your camper. A really nice metal fire pit with attached foot rests can be an asset as well.

Cleaning station was a big plus. (A-Frame with wenches and shelf) Also get you a Propane Turkey fryer with a pot to make hot water for cleaning knifes, hands, dishes etc. Biggest upgrade this year was a battery powered sawzall for cutting hip, no more back saw or loppers when quartering animals. Outdoor bench, table, heck we had a wire spool for a while.

We are on a lease with no electricity or water, so we improvised. We run generators for all electric, I wired everything and have a plug to plug generator in for power. For outside, we built a “Bull Shed” with a covered fire pit to hang out in. It rain is a ton up there, so covered is a must. This past fall, we built an outdoor kitchen, to reduce food smells on our cabin. I’ll try to post some pics in a few.

I have about 2400 gallons on my place, stays full for thr most part
I’d like to do this as well. Did you just hang gutters? I have a 24x36 barn that I would think would catch enough water to keep my tanks fairly full.

24x36 is plenty big. I just have gutters that are piped into a large tank. That has a over flow into a 900gal tank. The pump is plumbed to both.
We use water like we are at the house. No issues of running low yet.
