We *may* have a small (17') tow trailer available for 2017. I've been in/around Camp Scholler many times to either visit the 50% off store or to drop friends off after an evening's dinner, but I really don't know much else about it.
1. The Camp Scholler pages state that you pay upfront from the time you "secure" a site until July 31st, with unused days being refunded at the end. My question is: When is the campsite "secured"? When I call or go online to make a reservation? As in, if I book it on June 15th, do I then have to pay for 45 days?
2. The way I read it, I *think* I read that if you obtain an "improved" website that there are no refunds for unused days. Is that correct?
3. Do people pull-out their trailers to go dump the black/grey tanks? Or do most just pay for the service to come around to your campsite? Also, is it true that they can also fill your city water tank as well?
4. Do you register online to reserve an unimproved campsite, or is it just show up and pay yer money and get the luck of the draw?
5. Do they "assign" unimproved campsites, or do you just drive around and find your own? I *believe* I read that you are assigned a site with connections when you book one of those online, but may have read that wrong.
6. Are the unimproved campsites marked in any way? How do I know as I pull in whether I'm straddling a line or not?
7. Is there better information for first-timers available?
Are there questions I should have asked but didn't?
Thanks!
