We leave ours in the car, most of our clothes stay in there too! I pack in bags then move to folding crates when we get there, easier to find your stuff in than a bag.

Back of a chair in the sleeping pod...Clothes on there as well when I am ready for bed....Nothing worse than damp clothes from the ground in the morning!!!

Another advantage of frame tents!!! You have a Frame to hang stuff off!!! We used to have a rail you hooked over the frame then hung coats etc. off the hooks on the rail.

Wet or dry coats?

I hate this at home too!!! On the bannister, on the kitchen chair, grrrrr. Wet ones are the biggest PITA... I've tried hanging them under the porch to dry but it depends on wind direction.

Otherwise...go somewhere hot where you don't need them

Some kind of hanging thingy with butcher's hooks would be cool.

I have a frame tent so I can hang things from it like KatierRax I did have a coat rack but know I use these hooks from Ikea which are sturdier and cheaper

We have one of these which we keep in our sons bedroom pod (he is only 2 and a half so lots of space) for all the clothing:

As for coats, we leave the main ones in the car.
