Va. St parks and pet fee
Do all of the Va state parks charge $5 for each pet?
Forum Discussion
AS a pet owner I have no problem paying the fees. I enjoy bring my pet and have no problem paying additional fees it that is what it takes to bring the dog along.
I understand pets and irresponsible dog owners do cost the CG money in the long run. These cost occur in both state and private CG's.
In the end there will never be 100% compliance with the rules. More enforcement will only add to the cost of the operation, but will not magically make poor dog owners responsible.
We could discuss this issue for ever, (which we have) However each individual must decide what we are willing to pay for our camping experience and decide accordingly.
Are we willing to pay extra to bring our pet to VA parks?
I think this thread with the help of WRVPO has been very informative pros and cons and given valuable insight as to what the issues really are.
