Am I the a** hole for thinking that a clearly marked "free" camping site would be considered "occupied" and unavailable if MY niece's car is occupying the site? Here's the story. My sweet niece who is an introvert occupied a camp site the evening she arrived at the camp ground. According to the rules the sites are first come, first serve. Therefore, she arrived, occupied the site, slept in her car with her doggy and was visiting the lake with the rest of us (who all had our own sites. With our trailers). We were then informed by one of our family members that a couple had driven around the campground, was unsuccessful at finding a spot, pulled into the camping spot where my niece had the car and literally set up shop. All and I mean ALL of their camping gear was set up. Tent, table, boxes of firewood, sleeping equipment etc. We quickly informed them that the site was occupied by our family member who was a private person and had her belongings in the car so they wouldn't get stolen. The woman and I quote said, "you are not validating my reality. The site looked unoccupied and so we thought that we could just, share it" I then responded with, "no ma'am. An occupied site requires a car in the site. It does not mean you can just pull up and start using a site simply because a person doesn't have their stuff out. So, that's the story. There are a few other details BUT they are not important. I just want to know if I'm the a**hole for standing up for my niece and the site she clearly occupied with her car and the things in her car?
