It is a real shame that our culture has degenerated to the point someone steal another person's shelter.

Sad that some people would stoop to this. We are at our favorite park, Chester Frost Park, on Chickamauga Lake which is part of the Tennessee River in Chattanooga. The park is full and has been for days as people prepare for the July 4th holiday. This park is first come-first served on all sites. When renting here, you do not have to occupy with anything on the site as long as the fee is paid. Have NEVER heard of the problems you described happening here.

Never happened here until this year. Hope they can catch the folks. This far out in the boonies they almost have to be local.

Now I remember why I joined membership only Resorts, none of that B.S. goes on at those places I stopped going to state parks etc... along time ago for that reason and many others, it cost a few bucks to buy into but worth it to me

What a shame. Ethics are gone. Sounds like they need to hide a game motion sensor camera and prosecute!

There have always been people who steal. We have been fortunate over the years at campgrounds and on the road and have never had a problem. Last year thief's tore off my bed cover on my truck at a Ford Dealership while it was parked outside overnight which it should not have been. They did not take anything from the truck, just camping stuff back there but they did take wheels and tires off new cars.

At some places that I go to, they have rules that do not allow unattended campsite squatting/holding like you mentioned, there must be someone staying at the site every night or they will boot you out of the campground when you do show up.
It is probably someone that can't show up a week early, or afford an extra week of fees for camping, who is really upset about it and is pulling out tent stakes so the squatters tents blow away, or are "disappearing them" outright.

We joined 1000 Trails a couple of years ago, but let it dropped after we discovered they started renting out sites for the summer. When we got there, all the nice spots were taken...usually by an empty RV.

Yeah I heard 1000 trails was doing that but usually they do not give them the good spots ,we do not belong to 1000 trails our Resorts do not do that..(KM Resorts,Coast to Coast ,R.P.I.,R.O.D)you can only stay for 2 weeks at a time and you cannot reserve a spot it is first come first serve you can not "live" there
