I just had a situation with South Carolina state parks that led to me getting a 1 credit good for a year for a 1 night stay. It's worth about $50.00.
I doubt I will return in a year to use it,but it was a nice gesture.
In the end I blame myself for the outcome. I made a last minute cancellation.
I understand the rules and consequences.
While I hate to waste $$ truthfully the penalty is negligible in the scheme of my overall camping budget.
I could have avoided the penalty and stayed at another state park 20 minutes away and drove back and forth a few times. Resulting in wasted gas and time. Or I could pay the penalty and stay at my desired park the entire time.
Bottom line a wise camper knows the rules, cancellation policies and consequences.
The CG management has an obligation to enforce those policies for everyone if the policies are to be effective.
