We live in our rv full time, and honestly that looks like a great campground. Most places spend a bunch of money putting in brand new amenities, therefore wanting to charge more, and it's not worth it as a camper. I dont care if im shitting on a new toilet as long as what I'm shitting on is clean. I like your ideas of trying to expand what you have to offer, as in trying to find other streams of income rather than upgrading amenities to charge more. I would love it if there were more campgrounds that offer simple overnight parking. We boondock a lot, and I'd rather stay in a parking lot at a campground for a small fee rather than a truck stop. I dont necessarily need electric or water, if I can shower in the morning and do laundry, I'd be a happy camper. Also more and more campsites are turning to a store where people text or use an app to ask for products, and they deliver it to your site. That way you don't have to keep someone at the desk, they can be in their camper until someone needs them, and I dont mind paying an extra percentage to get it delivered to my site. We don't have a car other than our rv, so if you stock the basics, like water, milk, sugar, bread, etc. That would be better than not having anything. Ice and firewood are good money makers too. Basically I would focus on lowering operating costs and trying to find other ways to make money on the property other than raising nightly/weekly/seasonal site fees. We try to stay around $30 a night, and will pass up a campground no matter the amenities if it's more expensive. So having a cheap option of parking in a parking lot or just electric would greatly increase our chance of staying.

Very good point. I have the similar idea and demand. I am also thinking of one step further to reduce the cost. We may use online reservation, online check in, online unlock the power/water/sewer all happen on a phone. In this case, there is no need for someone to stay in the registration office and get paid. Well, our camper pay him/her actually. If everything is done on phone, one more labor cost will be reduced. Or, the same person who used to stay in the office can now devlier mile or fire log to your site, right? Let me know what you think this idea.

I was thinking this looked like an interesting video, but then this statement is said: "Nothing really of value, obviously besides the equipment. For the people who are local here, don't get any ideas, cause all the keys are locked away. Don't come snooping around, please" (Kyle Grimm, 8:33). This didn't seem to be a joke, because there wasn't a chuckle. I am not sure I would want to camp in an area where there are a bunch of snooping thieves living next door.
