They do that c rap in the Outer Banks as well for rental houses, except that the fee is $125.00 for a 1 PM check in instead of the standard 4 PM. Maybe Superman(girl) flies in to clean those specific homes.

Sure, a campground may not clean/maintain between every guest, but if they have to, it's pretty much the only opportunity to do do.
