Camping necessities
We are going this weekend to a cabin. Pretty much beds and a bathroom. Reviews said they are clean.  That's really all I care about.
Going with 4 other families with kids from 6 - 17.
We go every year, but this is the first time in a cabin. I know all the foods, grill, etc. Anything else on the side that may be helpful.
I have the utensils, plates, paper towels, TP and even flushable wipes! You never know. LOL
bedding, disinfectants, chairs, lighter, sunscreen, bug spray and candles, flashlights
paper, play doh, and stuff for the kids
Anything else that would help? THanks!

Pop up canopy for outside, and lights for it, along with an extension cord to maybe run lights so you can see at night.

Re: Camping necessities
I've never done camping, but when we rent a shore house (little bungalow) every year, I always bring my own bathmat (I just pick up a cheap one at Target or something) that I can throw out at the end of our stay. I don't want to be using someone else's bathmat.
I also bring hand soap for the bathroom and kitchen, and in the past, I've brought disposable hand towels (paper) for the bathroom so everyone doesn't have to keep using the same hand towel and I don't have to worry about constantly changing the hand towel which can get kind of gross quickly with a lot of people using the bathroom. Or I guess you can just use regular paper towels.
I know you said you are bringing bedding, but I would bring extra blankets in addition to sheets/pillows.
ETA - I'd bring some basic cleaning supplies to wipe down bathroom, kitchen, etc. on arrival.

Re: Camping necessities

i had never gone camping. since getting together with SO, i've been a few times. still getting used to it.
sounds like everyone has listed all the things
i second the thought of a good sharp knife, lots of towels, a clothes line. the only thing i would add is trash bags... they can serve many purposes.
have fun!
