It's possible that some CG's might charge you more money than the standard site fee when you use an rv on the tent site. It happened to me.
I have used a grassy muddy tent site when there was no other rv site avl. and I was charged a dump station fee on top of my site fee.
It was a CG rule that was posted at the dump station upon leaving, you get to see it. That tent site turned out to be the same price as a full hookup level rv site.
The owner (a nut ! ) and his co-worker (who was probably a salaried employee) actually blocked me in while at the dump station until the fee was paid. I was wondering why they were circling my site , waiting for me to pack up that morning.
Imagine two people stalking an RV'er all morning to see if he was going to use the sewer and maybe escape without paying "the fee" ?
I had a suspicion something was up with the owner from the get-go, he had that Norman Bates look about him. I'm glad I was up at 7 A.M. and took my grand ol' time about packing up, pushing him to the check-out time. They only had to stalk me for 3 hours while his employee was on the clock. :B
