We only have a medicine cabinet in our bathroom. We are a family of six. Between bath towels and beach towels be have at least 12 towels but more like 18 because one bath towel doesn't seem to be enough for one person for three days. We keep ours in the bath tub so far. There isn't really any other place for them. Where do you keep yours? Do you have any creative suggestions as to what to do with them before and after use? Obviously after use they are wet. Hanging then outside is only good if its good weather and if the campground allows a clothes line.

Our TT has a large cabinet to put towels in. We use 'em, hang 'em on hooks til they dry and then when in need of a new one we put used ones in a net-type clothes hamper. We use a bumper mount clothes line but we also have a spring loaded shower curtain rod we can put in the bunk area to hang wet towels until they dry.

I use a pressure shower curtain bar across my tub near the ceiling and use hooks that I got from Ikea to hang up towels, and our "shower bags".

I have an Amish clothes dryer--you know, those wooden racks that fold flat--that we carry around. It comes in handy for dish towels, dish cloths, undies etc. Otherwise, towels are treated like articles of clothing. They are packed with the clothes and we keep track of our own towels.

We have a cabinet across the aisle from our bathroom, that is actually the backside of our rear bedroom TV. It make a nice place to store fresh towels, hand towels and wash clothes. For wet towel, we have the spring loaded bar across the top back of the shower enclosure, with hooks. It is enought out of the way that we leave it there full time and can still shower. We keep a beach bag hanging on the bathroom door hook to transfer wet towels into that during showers. This works well for us.

I keep bath towels in the cabinets over the bed. Beach towels are kept in an outside storage compartment.

I put my clean towels in the linen cabinet. When I bought my trailer, I made sure I had all the storage I needed. So, I don't have to fumble around now trying to find storage space.

We hang our towells on 3M adhesive type hooks located on the walls and doors around the inside of our campers. It may not be very pretty, but hey this is camping!

We use a towel rack on the bathroom door and have the towels on the outside of the door.

The backside of our entertainment center butts up to our bathroom wall. I added a shelf in the top half of the EC and cut a hole in the bathroom wall to access the shelf. I then added a cupboard door.
Towels can be accessed by either side. the bathroom side or the front of the EC
