There is in fact ONE place I require a Campsite to face a certian direction. And if it does not. I don't stay. At the beach. My main requirement is that the door, and awning side, face the ocean. Why, you ask?
Well I'll tell you. On the East coast, If you face the ocean, You get afternoon shade under the awning. You get sun if you face the other way. You also get the best ocean breeze, The sun come up, and wakes you as well. To us, that is a plus. To others maybe not. With the awning on the beach side, I can sit, and watch the nightly parades on Ocean Drive. I can also sit there and listen to the waves break on shore.
To y'all, those may not be good reasons to require a ocean facing site. But to us they are, and as it's my money I'm spending. I get what I want.
Now as to camping in the mountians. I really don't care which way it points.
