Our site in the Valley of the Rogue campground had electricity and water hookups, but no sewer. So we had to be a little careful with water usage. Not as much as in the trailer in Yellowstone, as our coach has fairly large tanks (50 gallons black, 70 gallons grey, plus 90 gallons fresh water). The black tank is for our two toilets, and the grey tank is for our sinks, shower, dishwasher, and clothes washer.

We didn’t do any laundry during the week, as the washing machine uses the most water. We did run the dishwasher a couple of times, on the “eco” setting, as it doesn’t use all that much.
