Okay, here is where I must plead ignorance. Are any generators permitted at night in a campground, even the quiet, inverter types? I like to be cool when I sleep and it is equally important to me to run the AC at night as it is in the daylight hours. Someone on another thread about the Kipor 3500it (bear in mind that the Kipor is 5db louder than the Honda 3000 at full load and 3db less than the ELM-3000 at full load, same distance, 23 feet) said it was just barely noticable over his roof AC when standing outside, so running at night as far and noise is concerned would not be being a bad neighbor. But that doesn't mean the campgrounds will allow it either. What have you folks found?
I would say "No" in most campgrounds. But, if you are staying in a place where there are no hookups and other campers are using them then obviously it would be OK. (Nascar races, tailgaiting at ballgames, etc.) "When in Rome....."
For us, it is usually not an issue. We know ahead of time what we are getting. We almost always stay at campgrounds with hookups. But we do take a couple of trips a year that do not have hookups.
