That may be the case in certain special cases, but not likely a blanket rule for concession-run camggrounds. Usually, the concession contract has provisions that are very similar or identical to how the agency would run the campsite.
I am aware of some USFS campgrounds that actually have some seasonal sites. These are advertised publicly and awarded on a first come first reserved basis. The total price is somewhat lower than a daily rate applied for the season, but the campers can stay for the entire camping season (usually late May until mid-September). Plus, they can leave their camper there even when they are not present for a length of time. This arrangement is done only within campgrounds that don't get highly used and they are on the least desireable sites that usually go unused. It is a way to increase use in the campground and generate more revenue for both the government and the concessioner.
