Too much money for overnight stay!

So I was considering booking an overnight stay near my sister's wedding reception which is in the afternoon. So I wouldn't have to drive so far afterwards. I called two places. They both had room. I explained that I only needed an overnight place to sleep and would not use any of their facilities; could I please checkin early so I can make the reception?

Both said no and I asked them to be flexible but they would not budge. I only wanted them to let me come at 11:00 instead of their 3:00 checkin time.

Oh well; their loss. I'll keep my $50 and spend it elsewhere. And I'll remember those campgrounds and NEVER stay there.

  • Did you offer to pay for the early checkin? Whether you use the amenities or not, you are tying up a site for 2 days. Or do they force another RV to leave early to accommodate you?

    Why not simply park the RV at the outskirts of the reception parking lot and go to the RV park afterwards?
