My personal feelings: I (we) enjoy access to cable TV and it reflects in our evaluation of a campground to others. My wife and I are not serious TV watchers, even at home. Our motorhome does not have satellite, by choice, and over the last 10 years I don't think I raised the stick antenna a dozen time. Some parks truly do not need cable, as their proximity to a city permits multiple channels over the air. When we are only staying for an overnight cable is not an issue. However, if we are traveling and reach a destination for a week long stay cable is a lovely addition to the vacation. KOA Santa Cruz does not (did not?) offer cable, and we found our week stay with the grandkids a bit problematic as a result. Great campground, but if we return with the kids we will borrow a sat-receiver. Having just purchased a new motorhome, I was annoyed to find that I needed to have 4 TV's, or special order the new rig. Really, 4 TVs. Since this appears to be the new norm for mid and higher end coaches I would think that a new RV Resort park, hoping for more than transient stays of a week or more, would offer cable to at least numerous sites.
Personally again: I would not object to a "small" fee for cable and/or WiFi: However, I would expect the service to be exceptional!
JMHO, good luck on your venture.
