A member of our RV Lifestyle Facebook group recently brought up how she pulled into a supposedly booked campground yet many sites were open. Apparently, she's not alone in witnessing this growing phenomenon. 

With over 100 comments on the post, other members chimed in on why this may be happening and how it interferes with other campers who wish they had that empty spot! 

Getting a reservation these days is so difficult that it's frustrating to see empty campsites. You think about all of your fellow RVers who are camped out at a Wal-Mart or stuck at home because they couldn't get a spot. Yet, lo and behold, one empty spot is staring you in the face next to your own hard-to-get campsite.

Furthermore, it makes you wonder about all of the places you tried to book but couldn't get into. Were there empty spots that could've been yours?!

Why are there so many empty campsites when campground reservations are almost impossible to get? Well, I'm gonna tell you.
