Gary,
This is nothing new. I have run into this policy several times over the years.
On the west coast where we live, it is probably due to environmental concerns. The main concern is leaking fluids which is more likely to occur on older coaches and can get the park into trouble. They are responsible for all fluids leaked in their facility, not the RV owner and in some cases may have to file a report to the state if a spill occurs. Look around and you will probably see a Hazmat kit on the grounds.
I don't make reservations because of this policy unless it is a place I have stayed before. Usually there is no problem once the clerk sees my GMC and looks to see it isn't leaking any fluids.
Jim
