We stayed at rainbow Springs State Park in Florida for a week from December 20th to 27th. On the 27th Saturday we began to disconnect and put away some things prior to leaving before the 1 pm check...
Wait a minute. Most of the places we stay have a 2 or 3:00 pm check-in time. If you show up before then and the site is ready - bonus. But if you show up not only before the normal check-in time but also before the normal checkout time, be ready to cool your heels.
