Parking Issues

So, as you know, it has costs an extra $25 a day to have two cars at each campsite instead of one.  With 3 sites, this means we have a total of 6 parking spots.
John will be driving up on Tuesday to help set up, so I will not have my car.  Tim will be doing the same for Stephanie. 
As for parking for the dads on Friday, I think the best idea is to have them park in the state run beach access that is located next to the campgrounds and have them walk in.  They will then be able to exchange keys with you and you can take their car home.
I can't tell if they are strict about parking on paper or if this is how they'll be once we get there but I guess it's best to err on the side of caution.
