Most of my RV experience has been in state and federal campgrounds, not in RV parks, which is why I asked the question. Most of the campgrounds that I have been to have enough space between campsites that smoke from a smoker or campfire should not be much of an issue (although I am sure many if not all of us have camped near someone who didn't know how to build a proper fire .)
We like to think so, and strive to be just that. We do our best to follow the Golden Rule.
Bottom Line (no pun intended), I guess I just wasn't sure if it was common practice to use them in RV Parks or not.Steve & Laura

I wouldn't see a problem with it. I've been thinking about buying a TREK for our trips. One nice thing about pellet smokers is how clean they burn. If you're worried about smoke getting bad, you can also up the temp a little. The smoke doesn't get much in the way of penetration into the meat after about an hour anyway. I've found with my Traeger that a good clean out of the burn pot and under the heat shield helps a lot too. They don't put out any more smoke than a campfire.
Making a little extra to share with your neighbors might help too!

We have a Traeger Tailgater and a Weber Jumbo Joe charcoal grill. I am always considerate of how this might affect my neighbours. Having said that, neither puts out too much smoke. Also looking forward to the Capital Griddle when we get our new 2670MK.
Also, we have never engaged our outdoor speakers on any of our travel trailers. A small mercy for some as I'm all over the map with what music I like. If I want to listen to music, I will be inside the trailer or in the truck en route to somewhere. When at the campsite, I just want to chill and enjoy nature.Tom & Sherry

Smokey campfires from neighbors are far worse than the smoke from my Traeger on startup. The intermittent smoke during the reheating phase is far less than startup.
RV parks don't interest us, so I don't know what I would do in those situations since I cook almost everything outside. It's either cooking on the Blackstone or smoker.2020 Grand Design 2670MK
