plumbing

We have a 2011 Hideout bought new in 2012. We used the camper about 5 weeks last summer with no problems. Today we are in the 2nd day of our summer season camp. No problems yesterday but today we got a bathtub 1/8 full of sewage water. I drained both grey and black tanks earlier in the day. Got the tub cleaned and I took a shower and the spouse a bath. When she pulled the plug to drain the tub water shot like a geyser from the vanity sink drain and I heard water gurgling like it was coming up from the kitchen sink drain. Any suggestions of what to look for and how to fix whatever is going on here ? Hate to have this ruin our summer season use of the camper......
Thanks for any help or suggestions............

Check your roof vent, if it is blocked it will not let any air in or out, this is most likely the issue.

Confused

Not sure I understand how sewer water could get into the tub, ... grey water maybe but black?

If you have full hook ups leave the gray-water valve open when showering and emptying the tub. One adult bath can fill the tank easily. And check the roof vents as mentioned.

Some tt's only have one vent for grey and black tanks, so I guess its possible.

But as mentioned keep gray valve open if you have full hook up's.
