Give your campsite a finished look with the Camco 42876 outdoor mat. This 6 ft x 9 ft reversible rug lays flat outside your RV door, on a deck, or across a patio site -- and folds down small enough to stow in a storage bay when you roll out.
Most outdoor mats are either too heavy to bother packing or too flimsy to last a season. The Camco 42876 threads the needle: at 7.25 lbs it is light enough to carry without a second thought, yet the UV-stabilized polypropylene weave resists fading, mold, and mildew through repeated sun and rain exposure.
The open lattice construction lets water, dirt, and debris fall through rather than pool on the surface, which means less scrubbing and faster drying between uses. When the mat does need cleaning, a rinse with a garden hose is usually all it takes. The reversible design effectively doubles the usable life -- flip it when one side shows wear.
Both faces carry the blue lattice pattern so you can flip the mat to extend its life and keep the look fresh all season.
Polypropylene weave is treated to resist UV degradation, keeping color and structure intact through long stretches of direct sun.
Each corner includes a loop for staking the mat down in windy conditions -- no separate tie-down kit needed.
The mat folds compactly enough to fit in an RV storage compartment, cargo bag, or truck bed without rolling or bunching.
The 6 ft x 9 ft footprint is one of the most popular sizes for standard campsite use -- wide enough for a camp chair set, long enough to run along the slide-out side of most Class A and Class C rigs. Common placements include:
The lattice weave design allows rain and rinse water to pass straight through, so the mat dries quickly and does not hold the mud and grit that traps moisture under solid-surface mats.
Day-to-day maintenance is straightforward. Shake or sweep loose debris off the surface, then rinse with a garden hose if needed. For stuck-on dirt or sap, a soft brush with mild soap works well. Allow the mat to air dry fully before folding for storage to prevent any moisture from being trapped in the weave.
Fold the mat dry before stowing it in a basement compartment. Even a UV-stabilized, mold-resistant mat benefits from being stored without prolonged moisture contact during multi-week storage periods.
The UV stabilization treatment also carries mold and mildew inhibiting properties built into the material -- not a topical coating that washes off over time. This matters for full-timers and seasonal campers who may leave the mat deployed for days or weeks at a stretch in humid climates.
Mold and mildew resistance does not mean the mat is impervious to staining in extreme conditions. In heavily shaded, perpetually damp sites, rinsing and airing the mat every few days will keep it looking its best.
