From several conversations I've had with folks in Skagway (some tourists, some local), I think the long and short of it is that campgrounds, RVs and motel rooms are just not high on the priority list there. The cruise ship passengers are the moneymakers and all of them go back to the ship to sleep.
It's obvious there is a need for more (and better quality too!) campgrounds in/around Skagway, but I suspect that its just not worth the cost of creating them,...too little return on investment there compared to what you can make off the ship passengers..
