love this..it’s so refreshing to read about the good & the less than glamorous aspects of life on wheels… and rules x a billion definitely qualify (along with snarky park peeps). it’s funny we found a lot of places only offer the discount when you ask versus them mentioning it also, although we stayed a lot of places where there could have been a few more rules haha! the less spendy, the more loose the “details” (; great post!

I hope they read this posting before we get there. we made reservations for the Labor Day weekend on the basis of your previous post. I might not have if I had read this. I will say that the woman who took my call was very nice and helpful. She asked me where we had the best view from our Airstream (the front) and gave me a river front spot that she said we will be able to see the river and boats.

I enjoyed this review immensely – especially the part about the AAA-discount. I can appreciate the need for rules at a campground, but when they become the focus of your checkin experience, that can really set an unfriendly tone for the stay. Sounds like the campground has had some unruly guests in the past that have maybe spoiled it for everyone else….

That’s too bad. The last thing anyone would want is to feel like they’re intruding. Well onto the next, right?!

Fabulous review! Doesn’t sound like my kind of place though . . . rules aren’t a problem for me but the bad attitude thing is . . .

@Dave, that’s too bad. And agreed, about the amount of exhausting that must be. I was just on the phone with my mom, who is going to stop by and drop off her computer so I can fix a few things for her, and we’re having stress about the fact that during the 2 minutes she’ll be here she’ll have one of her dogs in the car with her, and The Rules specifically say that visitors can not bring pets. (I told her to just drive in fast past the office and drop off the computer, the dog will be in the car and holy crap hopefully we won’t get kicked out a day early!) 🙂 -L

Too funny. I love the sarcasm.

Coincidently, Kelly and I are getting a similar vibe (albeit less than your description) from Pelican Point RV here in Half Moon Bay. Mainly, it’s the owner’s daughter who is unnecessarily bitchy; it must be exhausting to be so frumpy all the time.

The others employees are pretty nice. But, lots of rules – most silly and seemingly arbitrary in nature.

I hate sit still and don’t touch anything kind of places.
