Water Tap Wisdom: Efficient Usage Tips for Every Pitch at Camping De Reebok
If you love the freedom of camping with everyday comforts close at hand, the water tap at every pitch at Camping De Reebok is a game changer. With your own tap and wastewater drain at your pitch, plus 10‑amp electricity, you can cook, clean, and hydrate without trekking across the field—while still keeping water use smart and sustainable.
Set on the Veluwe, just 800 metres from the village of Garderen, our family‑friendly campsite combines convenience with nature. This guide shows you exactly how to enjoy that convenience while conserving water and keeping your pitch tidy and comfortable.
The convenience of an individual water tap and drain on every pitch
Each pitch at Camping De Reebok features:
- An individual water tap for easy access to fresh water.
- A dedicated wastewater drain right at your pitch for neat, hassle‑free disposal.
- 10‑amp electricity via modern power pillars.
This setup streamlines daily routines, from cooking and cleaning to quick refills before you head out to explore the Veluwe. Because the camping field is one large, open, flat grass area with playground equipment within sight, families can keep an eye on children while managing chores efficiently. Cars are parked in the dedicated parking area directly next to the campsite, keeping the field spacious and safe.

Smart water use at your pitch: 12 practical tips
- Fill once, use many times. Top up a lidded jug or bottle in one go rather than making multiple small refills.
- Turn off between tasks. While scrubbing dishes or brushing teeth, keep the tap off; open only for a quick rinse.
- Adopt a two‑basin approach. Use one basin for washing and another for rinsing. Empty into your pitch’s wastewater drain when done.
- Pre‑wipe cookware. Remove food residue with a paper towel or cloth before washing to reduce water needed for scrubbing.
- Soak smart. Briefly soak tough items, then rinse efficiently rather than running the tap continuously.
- Batch your chores. Group dishwashing, produce rinsing, and bottle filling into one session to minimize on‑off cycles.
- Measure what you need. Use a measuring cup for cooking water so you don’t unnecessarily heat or discard extra.
- Choose quick, cooler rinses. For most tasks, a brisk, cool rinse is enough and saves both water and energy at your setup.
- Mind children’s water play. Encourage play at the on‑site playgrounds and keep water use purposeful.
- Secure the tap after use. Close the tap firmly and store containers upright to prevent drips and spills.
- Keep connections simple. When filling, use short, direct methods (e.g., a jug or container) and avoid leaving the tap unattended.
- Use sanitary blocks for showers. Enjoy quick showers in the modern sanitary buildings, keeping personal washing away from the grassy pitch.
Family routines that work on a car‑free, open field
- Set up a water station. Place your main water container near your cooking area and a small basin outside the tent or caravan entrance for quick handwashing.
- Assign roles. One person fills water and manages dishwashing; another dries and organizes. Short, defined roles keep routines fast and light on water.
- Use visibility to your advantage. The open, flat field makes supervision easy—children can enjoy the play equipments while you finish a quick, water‑wise cleanup.
Handling dishwater and cleaning up responsibly
- Use the pitch drain. Empty cooled dishwater into the wastewater drain at your pitch. Avoid emptying on the grass.
- Strain out solids. Catch food scraps with a small strainer or cloth to keep drains clear; bin the scraps.
- Wipe first, wash second. A fast pre‑wipe cuts down on greasy water and speeds up rinsing.
- Separate tasks. Clean lightly soiled items first, then tackle pans—this keeps the rinse water cleaner for longer.
