Big Oak River Camp, Camp Wood, TX refused to return deposit

About thirty of us had a March 2020 group trip planned to Big Oak River Camp, in Camp Wood, Texas...we were forced to cancel because of the coronoavirus outbreak...owner refused to return deposit despite the unexpected and unforeseeable need to cancel in light of group-gathering prohibitions and government guidance re. travel

    Unless the park is enforcing this, I think you're stuck.

    Exactly my thought, you want the park owner to absorb the loss because you changed your mind.

    My brother had reservations at an Albuquerque RV Park for the balloon festival. They insisted on $150.00 to cancel.
