My favorite campground isn't segregated.

None of them are segregated. But most tent campers don't want to pay extra for water, electricity,
and sewer. So they usually stay in places other than the sites where all that is available.


BS. If available I always take a spot with power/water.


Well, you are exceptional. Most of the time there are tenters where we camp, but I've only seen one,
that I can remember, on a site with water and electricity. The great majority of tenters rough it
without electricity and water hookups.

I have no reason to bull**** you or anyone else about it.


And I have no reason either. I would estimate 30-40% tent campers in
the A loop of the referenced campground (with power/water), and more in
the B, G, and T loops where you would need your generator. Some forgo
the tent and sleep outside on a cot or pad when it's nice. Maybe it's
regional or age differences? Many campers here bring boats instead of
RVs but still like the convenience of a coffee maker and microwave.
When I stay for a week or more I bring a small freezer.


That's cool. I don't think I intimated you were bull****ting me or anyone else. I told you my
experiences, you told me yours. You refer to one campground, and I've stayed in dozens, just in the
past ten years. When we stay a week, we bring a refrigerator, freezer, oven, coffee maker, and a
toilet. And, have as good a time as we did when we had a couple sleeping bags and a tent. Often,
we'll take the boat *and* the RV. My wife's getting pretty good at towing the boat with her
Highlander. Both Lake Anna and Solomon's Island area offer great boating and fishing.
