I don't know if people don't bother reading the laws, but here it is.
1. Campgrounds in South Carolina fall under the hotel motel laws.
2. You are not a tenant at a campground, what you are paying for is an accommodation, even if you are paying by the month the payment is still based off a daily rate. The law recognizes you as a guest. You don't have a landlord at a campground, you have an innkeeper. As an innkeeper you Eject people from the property, not Evict.
3. It clearly states under the hotel motel laws that only a suspicion of ill deeds is needed to EJECT (NOT EVICT) a person off the property and that only a reasonable time is needed ( judgement made this 1-2 hours), once that time expires the authorities will remove said person and arrangements will be made for property retrieval.
4. It clearly states under Chapter 40, landlords and tenant act, section 27-40-120, the exclusions to this act (any rights as a tenant), paragraph 4, Hotels and Motels and ANY Accommodation Subject to the Accommodation Sales Tax (this includes the campground site you are staying in) is EXCLUDED from this Act.
You are a guest at a campground, just as in a hotel, you have no rights at all as a tenant. If the owner wants you gone you have at least an hour, maybe two to get up and go or you will be placed off the property and a trespassing notice will be given. (The innkeeper also has the right to hold your belongings just as in a hotel unless the bill is met, these belongs can be sold at an auction to for-fill the bill. Even though most cops don't know that campgrounds fall under hotel motel laws, the owner can point it out and the fact the all sites at a campground are subject to an accommodation tax and there-for just as in hotels and motels eviction does not apply, and if he does his job the person will be given a reasonable time to pack and leave.
