While volunteer camp hosts at Big Bend National Park, several times we had people come in - use a site for the entire day - preventing campers from using the site - then leave near dark - of course they never paid for usage of the site. We tried to be flexibly, but it was a campground - if my campers needed a site ---
We tried to talk to many. Most agreed to leave within a couple hours. Some did not and I let Law Enforcement talk to them.
Right now, well until 9 tomorrow morning, we are at a COE campground in Texas. Most of the day use areas are closed on lakes in Texas due to flood damage. Been that way for a year. Some of my old neighbors are coming to campgrounds, renting a camping spot, staying only during the daylight hours and leaving.
We saw one site held for three days by a large party tent - for a wedding on the Saturday. They did park the 40+ cars at a closed boat launch ramp so the 100 guests didn't clog the CG roads.
Did meet the project manager, who said 'Do I really want to barge in and stop a wedding in the middle of the ceremony?'
Though he did find the bride's father - the name which had reserved the camping spot - and gave him a ticket.
