ruuning a business like a snack bar or massage out of RV?

not allowed

If you plan to run a snack bar/restaurant you would have to contact each CG. They would be under the regulations of the local municipality or state.
As for the massage, probably the same.

Good luck. Most places generally have their own concessions and won't want the competition. Definitely check with each state and campground you are looking at. All with have their own rules and licensing.

I doubt that any State or National Park would allow any kind of commercial activity in a family campground, and I'd be willing to bet the private commerial parks are not going to allow it either. First of all, for food business just about anywhere, you'd have to get health dept inspections etc. Most localities would probably want you to get some kind of business license (Pedlars license etc), and if you try it without asking in the State/National Parks you'll probably quickly get shut down by the Park Rangers.

thanks, for all the quick replies. that's kind of what i was guessing. i'm used to living in Thailand where you can do anything you want any where you want. i have to remember the rest of the world isn't like that.

Well, if you paid the right people enough money, you can probably do anything! But, I've never seen what you're asking about done in any campground... ever.

Bad idea that will not end well for you.

Frankly, I can't think of any two other legal business ideas that would cost more for licensing or draw more attention from the health department than those two. And you'd be dealing with county and city inspections as well, every time you moved. And paying another license fee.
And a rolling massage parlor would likely have a 24/7 police escort even if you just stopped at a traffic light. Especially red ones. :W

I would suggest that you find a spot in town. :S:R:(I certainly don't want someone next to me selling food or massages out of their RV.:R:E I look for those services in areas zoned for that type of thing.

You could probably do the massage thing out of your RV at truck stops and/or rest areas....:B:B:B.....Dennis
