The idea behind this is that we love being in the campground. The atmosphere just feels different from day use areas, which also usually don't have campfire pits. The few times we have done this, the campground was not busy, plus we use primitive sites which didn't prevent anyone from using the ones with hook-ups. There were no other campers in our area at the Jellystone yesterday, and the kids had room to run and play in a large grassy section across from our site. We were told we could use any empty site we wanted, they were happy to have us. Chock Full o' Nuts, you seem to understand my concept. Would we have rather brought the camper? Of course, but it just wasn't practical this weekend. We don't mind paying the fee, it's well worth the value of being outside in a lovely place with fresh air and nature. Just imagine what a trip to the movies with 5 of us would have cost, especially with refreshments thrown in!
