Are you not from the Midwest and have no idea what I mean by a rousing game of cornhole? You&#x2019;ve probably heard of it referred to as bags, sack toss, or bean bag toss. No matter what you call it, cornhole is guaranteed fun for everyone! It&#x2019;s also a great game for camping, parties, and other outdoor activities! It is worth it to invest in a quality set, which typically includes 2 boards and 8 bean bags.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cornhole isn&#x2019;t the only outdoor game perfect for camping! Besides cornhole, I loved bocci ball, dominos, and of course card games! (What I didn&#x2019;t love was losing every game of euchre to my dad!) These memories of playing games around the campfire with my family will last a lifetime, and I wouldn&#x2019;t trade them for anything.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Reminiscing on these good memories had me thinking about what the best outdoor games for camping are, and I decided to find out! I&#x2019;m so excited to share all of the information I learned and some of my personal recommendations for different games. Through my research, I learned the best outdoor games for camping are cornhole, bocce ball, ladder toss, roundnet, horseshoes, and tabletop games such as dominos and cards. Below, I&#x2019;ll explain a bit about the rules of each game, their pros and cons, and my recommendation for the best outdoor game for you and your family!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1_Cornhole_Bags\"><\/span>1.
