Well, we have been here for over a month and I started noticing the same travel trailer and golf cart being stored in the overflow lot during the week. I would see the golf cart riding around the campground and noticed it parked with the RV in the full hookup sites during the weekends. The golf cart is very noticeable because it is a 6-seater with a make-shift roof made out of an old piece of RV awning (multi-striped). The golf cart is kinda dirty and beat up looking.
So obviously, these people are locals and drive to the Fort on weekends. The pickup their trailer and golf cart in the overlow lot and then camp on the weekends. After the weekend is over, they put everything back in the overflow lot (different location every week) and go home.
Now this is a real sore subject for me. Last fall we were here for several months and my father passed away during our visit. I went to the front desk and asked about leaving my RV in the overflow lot while we drove home to attend my father's funeral. I was told that I could not leave it in the overflow lot for 6 days. So I had to pay for a site for 6 days to keep our RV on while we were gone. I was upset enough over my father's death so the last thing on my mind was fighting with a suit who told me no. We just left our RV on the site and hit the road.
Now you tell me how somebody can keep their travel trailer and golf cart in the overflow lot every week for at least a month and nobody says anything to them. I don't know how long they have been doing it but it's been at least since the first of September.
So much for security checking the lot.
Sorry for the vent but every time we go out the front and I see that trailer, it ticks me off.
