I have general question of everyone on here. On our last vacation we were at a campground (I will not say were) and our camp site was around 3 to 4 sites away from the bathrooms. Well, everyone on the other side of our site would walk through our site to go to the bathroom. Now, I am not saying on the edge of our site but between the camper and the SUV. Once, my wife was getting something out of the back end of the SUV and she had to wait for the people to walk through before she could open the back end. We have not camped long but this has never happened any other time. What would you do if this happened to you???
thanks

Thats were you use your "pink flamingos" or lawn chairs....If you make it look like an obstacle course most will walk around.
The real problem was when the CG was designed no thought was given to controlling pedestrian traffic. JMO

It hacks me off to no end when people are so inconsiderate! We, as I am sure others, have had this happen far too many times. I even went so far as to put a rope up with a sign on it asking people to stay on the path to the bath house and NOT cut through our site. It didn't help, folks just ducted under the rope and ignored the sign. We never did come up with a solution except maybe a shotgun!

Since we were only there two days, she did not really want to make waves..

I think I would have certainly said something to them and tried to find a way to block the path if possible, but unfortunately some people have no class, no manners, no sense.

Bucky Badger, the problem is I don't even own a gun, just using it to make a "point". It's a problem that will never be solved.

This has happenned to us too. People usually won't do it when you're outside your rv I've found. However, one woman cut through our site and even emptied her coffee cup behind our tt while I was sitting at my picnic table! She was gone by the time I had scooped my lower jaw off the floor! I would hope these are people who don't camp often and are just ignorant.
