Let me throw you another situation here. I reserved 3 sites in a Fla. park with my credit card and paid for 3 nights when doing so. I arrived before my two other brothers. I am there and claimed all three sites. Are you saying you should be able to take one of those even though I am there and have paid for the spots although I have not set up anything on the other two sites yet?
While Im not the OP, I would say the answer to your question, from my perspective, is YES, I should be able to take one of those spots, if I showed up before your other two brothers. Unless, of course, they are site specific reservations. Now, If I was preparing to occupy the site, and you came up to me, and explained the situation, I'd probably move to accommodate you and your brothers. But, I'd be miffed if they didn't show up and the site I wanted was subsequently vacant.
The Florida state parks I've stayed at are site specific reservations. Although I will admit, I've only been to a couple.

In my case there were 2 vacant sites in the A.M..
One went to a member of the group. But I believe the last site went to a non group camper that just rolled up and found a vacant site.
So the site that I was denied the day before went to someone outside the group after all. While I never went to the office to confirm the final site occupant was from outside the group. The name tags on the site did not match the name on the rest of the group's site.
Ultimately this annoyance led to me ranting.
