A lot of places make you miove out after 14 days so there is a park rotation every two weeks or the SO becomes the new site renter. I've seen it work both ways.

************************************************ BIRMINGHAM, Ala. (AP) - The recession is helping create a new lifestyle in Alabama: Permanent camping.
Campgrounds across Alabama are filling with permanent residents seeking less-stressful, less-expensive lifestyle. Campground operators say it's an enticing option for both retired people and younger adults who have fallen on hard times.
Alabama's state parks didn't allow full-time residents in its campgrounds for decades. But it now allows full-time residents at Lake Guntersville State Park and Wind Creek State Park near Alexander City.
State Parks Director Mark Easterwood said pressure from campers created the change. *************************************************
