All I could afford wrote:
As a guy who owns and over 10 year old trailer which is in visually perfect condition, i'd like to offer the opinion that I wouldn't be offended if I Campground had a policy such as "all RVs and trailers must be in a reasonably presentable condition, to be determined by the management. But a blanket restriction based only on age seems silly and not in the spirit of camaraderie I come to expect when camping
I want to know if I will be accepted BEFORE I drive up. If "reasonably presentable condition" is determined by an inspection, then I'm not staying there. I don't want to spend $5 in gas only to find out that I'm not good enough for them. Post it on the website, spell it out when I call, etc.
If they don't post the specifics that defines an RV as not in reasonably presentable condition, then how can I even guess as to whether my RV meets their definition of "reasonably presentable condition" and if there are no specifics, how do they uniformly apply the rule?
The 10 years old or newer may not account for appearance, but it can be consistently applied. Reasonably presentable condition is completely subjective and cannot be consistently applied. Someone mentioned the "...but I know it when I see it" argument - unfortunately, that's not a defensible argument.
