Swim suit driers are so inconsiderate?
It seems a lot of parks we've stayed in have rules against having a laundry line. Sure, I can imagine that someone, somewhere went way overboard, but for your average family in your average RV park...

its about liability, more than aesthetics for most camps.
Drying a few items on a rack or awning arms is unlikely to cause harm, but a line to a tree or post could hurt someone that does not see it. It may be one of your own family that forgets about it in the night and ends up 'clotheslined'.
By having the no clothesline rule the park insulates itself mostly from liability, if they have a record of enforcing rules. Then the liability is primarily yours.
Sure, the risk is low, but accidents have happened enough for insurance carriers to list clotheslines as an 'avoidable risk'.
So, camp owners listen to their ins. provider & attorney, preferring to never have the issue.
Sorry.
