You can think of camper as coming from one simple picture: someone stops in a place that is not their home, puts their things down, and stays there for a while. The word is camp plus -er, so it can name the one who does that — the person asleep in a tent by the river — or the thing that lets them do it, a small home on wheels with a bed and a stove inside. Two more uses borrow only the staying part: the player who picks one corner of a game map and never moves, and the customer whose table has quietly become home for the afternoon.
From the word’s history
Wiktionary gives camper as camp (verb) plus the agent ending -er, which matches the plain modern picture: the one who camps.
Wiktionary 記載 camper 由動詞 camp 加上 -er 組成，正好對上現在最直接的意思：露營的那個人。
