A recent article in Woodalls Campground Management, by Jeff Crider, a respected journalist and publicist, wrote his opinion in a different way. He proposed that there are plenty of sites available even during peak times if the rver does some research. In another words, if the camp you want is full, there are others, you just have to look farther , open your search criteria.
An example in his article is Fishing Bridge in Yellowstone, which commonly has no availibility. However, he states there are over 60 other camps within and just outside Yellowstone that rarely reach 100% occupancy.
His approach to his hypothesis he tells me is grounded in reported sales tax revenue. This opinion is supported by David Gorin, of Gorin, Cohen & Associates, a highly successful Washinton DC camp consulting firm.
The days of ' go anywhere find a site' cheap, big enough for you are fading in prime seasons. Its still there for your 22' rig, less so for the big rig.
Explore the rationale. Dont blame the enterpreneurs who take the risk
Jeff would welcome your insight.
