how big a pad ?

[Gary Smith]

Dorn,
Rather than putting down a pad costing you $$$ each, running the length from
entrance road to exit road (pull through), why not just put down a patio
pad? Are you expecting people to stay long term (weeks/months/seasonal), or
short term? Assuming the gravel driveways are reasonably level and in good
repair, I would rather see you spend the $$$ necessary to make sure each
spot has 30/50 amp service (properly sized and positioned), water, and
sewer.
