Tell us your RV Unfriendly Communities
I came across this website and there was a blog written about RV unfriendly Communities. So it got me thinking have others experience places that are RV unfriendly such as towns, cities, parks etc.? ...

There are many cities/towns here in Colorado (not just Gunnison, as noted on that website), that have restrictions on RV parking.
In Fort Collins, one can only park at your residence on the street for 24hours for loading/unloading; in Loveland, it's 48hours. In certain neighbourhoods, HOA covenants won't allow any RV/Trailer/Motorhome to be visible at all, so no parking on your property or in the driveway; one can only load/unload and only for 24hours. Some require that said vehicles be enclosed in a fenced area, with a limited view of the RV/Trailer/Motorhome.
In Fort Collins, municipal ordinance forbids overnight parking at WalMarts and other locations favoured by RV'ers. And it's enforced. Loveland is not as restrictive, and the WalMarts here become very popular, and sometimes crowded with RV parkers.
The above is also true, to varying degrees, in Boulder as well as the Denver Metro area, each city having their own variations on the laws indicated above. In many areas, it's the HOA rules that prevail, and some of the Denver suburbs have some of the most restrictive HOA covenants in the country.
