I was recently in northern cal.
The park I was at said that after 3 weeks I had to apply to be a permie, which involved credit check, etc. I did that even though I only stayed one more month. (We negotiated a verbal agreement that did not fit these categories -- the understanding that I was not a 'real' permie, and they could go ahead and rent the site to someone else for longer term starting the next month, they only charged me for the days I was there, not from the 1st to the 1st of the month, I did not have to give notice, etc.)
Not sure whether that was county or state law, but I called some parks in neighboring counties (for future reference) and that seemed to be the general way things are done.
One park manager did say he was considering implementing a 3-month option, as well as temp/perm, but had not done so yet.
None of these were at lakes. They were in the central valley and foothills.
