Basically, we inadvertently crashed the campground before the season had officially begun, but the owner was too polite to turn us away or even come right out and tell us that he wasn't open. As it turned out, the campground had not opened yet for the season, and the people in front of us were actually old friends of the owner who was letting them stay there while they were in town. When the gate opened to let the people in front of us in, we scooted in behind them.
