What’s the essential tool set for a camp?

I already know drill and socket set but I was wondering if anyone on here had seen any good deals on a bundle set of quality

TIA

Harbor freight for everything. Especially if you are leaving them at the camp.

They have a pretty good general tool set for $40 that I give to each of my kids when they got their first apartment. General enough to cover most simple needs and inexpensive enough that it can get lost or stolen and can be just as inexpensively replaced.

Ryobi one series cordless bundle. Can add small chain saw and limb saw later. I just recently bought a whole set based on watching my buddy use and abuse his for the last 10yrs of so.
They are cheap enough ~200$ for a set (drill,impact driver, skill saw, saws all, multi tool) tbat if you drop one in a slough you won’t be sick like if it was a makita or Milwaukee.

OP, I'd add the drill looking air compressor to the Ryobi set if you don't already have one in the truck. Especially if you have 4 wheelers, SxS, etc. at your camp.

Besides that, wire strippers, channel locks, and crescent wrenches are a must for me. We have lots of shite to work on all the time.
