Best RV Patio Mats: Make Your Campsite Feel Like Home | Autance

CGear’s mats were originally designed to make a safe landing mat for military and civilian helicopters. Meant to keep dust and dirt from being blown back up into the engine of the helicopter, these mats make sure sand and dirt fall through and stay fallen through the cracks. We don’t expect you to land on your mat in the DMZ, but that dual-layer technology works just as well to keep you sand-free when camping in the desert or at the beach.

The sturdy weave is designed for the weight of small aircraft, so lawn chairs and tables are no match for these mats. The mats come in three sizes to suit your RV size and needs and the largest weighs in at 21 pounds, helping to keep it in place when the wind picks up. While many RV mats stay rolled or folded when you first take them out of the bag, this mat will just flop down and then stay in place. It is also UV-resistant to avoid fading and add durability. This mat also comes with heavy-duty D rings and grommets to let you stake or tie it down in heavy winds.

This all-weather outdoor rug from EZ Travel is made from polypropylene plastic weaving. Protected against damage and fading from UV rays, this is a material that should last through all that the outdoors has to offer. Because this plastic product is non-porous, it is easy to clean, even when muddy. It should also resist staining when spills and other messes arrive on site and should also be easy to fold or roll-up when you’re ready to go home after that long weekend, drying quickly to help prevent mold or mildew.

The weave of the mat lets water pass through as well as air, working to keep your feet dry, but also to make sure that the grass isn’t killed or turned to mush under your feet. That’s a plus if you’re at a campground for an extended period. This mat also comes with reinforced looped grommets at each corner. Those work with the included stakes and washers so that you can stake your camping claim and not worry when the wind picks up. A secure RV patio mat is a safer patio mat, too, because it makes tripping over loose edges less likely. When you’re done camping, the included carry bag makes storage of your mat and stakes easier.

At a campground that doesn’t have quiet hours after dark or camping on your own site and don’t feel like calling it a night when the moon shows up to work? This mat offers a ring of LED lights around each edge that plugs into 120V power and helps make sure you can see what you’re doing after dark. Whether it’s mood lighting for a party, or just to help make sure you can find your way back from the games room, the bright LEDs offer improved visibility without casting shadows or glare.

The mat itself is made with a lightweight, durable, and smooth polypropylene material. It’s also reversible, letting you pick from two designs with the same mat or flipping for even wear. The woven structure helps ensure airflow that protects from mold and mildew as well as reducing the impact to the grass underneath. UV-coated to protect from sun damage, the mat can be cleaned by sweeping or wiping with a damp cloth before folding up for easy storage.

This is one of the very few choices for anyone who wants an eco-friendly mat. Fab Habitat’s patio mats are made from recycled single-use plastic straws, which is then woven by hand by trained artisans instead of an entirely machine-driven process. The materials used contain no latex or flame retardants, a big plus for anyone with latex allergies or other chemical sensitivities. They are UV-resistant, so they can withstand harsh sun, nor fade, nor stain your deck, and they won’t damage your grass. The company says that it follows fair trade principles to ensure the treatment of workers.

The mats come with a one-year warranty against sun damage and washing is simple, just shake off a dry mat or use water and a mild detergent to remove dirt that won’t come off in the rain. The mats are offered in a wide range of sizes, though with the largest at 8 x 10, it may not be big enough for all campers. Because these are hand-made, each rug is slightly different, making yours unique. Because this mat can be slippery, the manufacturer recommends using a skid mat underneath.

RV patio mats tend to be bright and colorful, loaded with patterns. We understand that not everyone wants their mat to make a statement. Instead, they just want the benefits of keeping their furniture and feet off of the grass as well as keeping the grass and mud out of the camper. This mat is made from artificial turf, so it looks like grass. It won’t blend in perfectly with all lawns, but it will always look more subdued.

If you’re at a site that is dirt or rock, this grass mat will give you the softer feel of turf and let you walk around barefoot more comfortably. It has finished edges all the way around for durability. It is made from UV-resistant marine-grade materials so you won’t end up with a faded-looking fake lawn and it’s easy to clean, and it has rust-resistant grommets to let you secure it to the ground and protect from wind.
