Note that any of the above full hookup parks are extremely expensive. Do you really need hookups?
I don't know what you consider "extremely expensive" but 3 years ago Colter Bay gave us a ~$10/night discount using our Senior Pass and our full hookup site was ~$50/night including tax. We didn't think that was too bad considering that full hookup parks in many locations in the US are charging ~$35/night these days and they sure don't have the scenery that Colter Bay has.
And as to why people need full-hookups, some of us like to use our washing machines and take long showers. We don't camp; we RV, and we get full hookups whenever possible. RVing is not "roughing it" (for us, anyway).:B
It's not for us either. If I wanted to use a folding potty stool, wash dishes in the creek, and sleep on the ground, there are places to do that called primitive campgrounds. It's not for me, but I would never tell anyone they shouldn't do it simply because I wouldn't. It amazing the number of people who think because they do not subscribe to something that it has no merit. Now, excuse me while I go take that long shower that so many people frown on. Oh.. I'll have to do that later. One of my favorite show is on now.
