Va. St parks and pet fee

Way too much whining going on here. For the record, I have pets, but do not bring them camping too often. I am not against pets in CG's but people do not follow the rules. I've stepped in poop, and laughed as 2 or 3 little yappers locked up in campers bang on the shages yapping away at me as I walk by, and even when the owners are present and have them in pens, behind screen doors just yapping away. Westernrvparkowner has given a good perspective from a CG owner point of view and most of his examples can be applied to State CG's. If you don't like extra fees, just stay away. If you read the email from the VA ranger, their reasons are based on customer feedback, pet owners being in the minority. So they responded to what their customers wanted, which is what any good business would do. And since others have said that they are constantly booked shows that extra fees aren't hurting them in the least. Happy Camping!
