I think in general, public campgrounds must have a justifiable reason for not allowing specific RVs. Because they are there for the public. Unjustifiably denying access to specific RVs could create a very negative public backlash.
Fishing Bridge doesn't allow soft-sided RVs due to bear activity.
A limit of 24ft max is enforced because access or sites cannot accommodate anything larger.
And so on.
Private parks, in contrast, can choose not to allow a specific rig for most any reason (barring illegal discrimination against the RV occupants).
So, if a private park had a TC guest, and that guest had a messy site, the private park could choose to exclude TCs. It doesn't matter how accurate/real their connection of "TC = messy site" is, as long as it is the RV they are denying and not the occupant.
Heck, a private park could refuse any rig that isn't a 1975 American Clipper with Dodge chassis and 360 engine. They may not make much money, but it's not discrimination against a protected group.
