It seems no matter how I stretch or adjust the shower curtain, it still leaks out around it, what are you guys doing to solve this issue in these?

I bought some velcro and added it to the sides of the curtain. Purchased the strips at Walmart, they were 1" squares and I used like 6 on each side against the tub surround.

We have had the same problem. I came to the realization that water is running down the tub surround and then following that ridge around the shower curtain and onto the floor. There used to be little triangle shaped plastic things you could buy that stick on to the tub and the tub surround that would prevent this. I haven't seen them in a few years though, but they are likely available somewhere.

What I do now is make a point to keep the side of the camper opposite the shower slightly higher than the other side. I do this during leveling when I set it up. This way, the water runs down the tub surround and into the tub corner eventually flowing into the tub.

You can run a bead of caulk at an angle (from each outside edge) so the water that goes around has a path back into the tub. Ours had one of those angle plastic pieces and I seen water just seems to sit around it so I took it off and did this instead. So far, so good!

I have the perfect solution. We purchased two hanging cloth closet shelves from IKEA and hang them on a spring loaded shower curtain mounted in the tub area. We now use that area for clothes storage for mom and dad and take showers at the park facilities. Haven't had a leak yet...lol...
