Almost always only at higher-end RV "resorts". Its a way to keep the riff-raff out.

Other places may use it as a way to sort out the clapped-out rust-buckets, and allow in only the well kept older units.

It depends on where you like to spend your time. We've never been turned away but we prefer scenic to "amenities", so we don't spend much time in commercial campgrounds if we have a choice, so our experiences may not help.

"Squeaky" is on her seventh birthday but we've had her since Jan. of '10(our e-bay special). In two summers, we've traveled out West and have just returned from an Alaska adventure for a total, for both trips, of almost 25,000 miles with only minor snafus. We like the HR's floor plan so well, this will probably be our first and last RV...next summer(if the fuel credit card stops smoke'n

), it's on to the NE...what a country we live in!
