Being that large I don't see how the rentals would be a problem for the individual lot owners. It sounds if all lots were intended to be used so as you say you most likely would not know most of your "neighbors" anyway.
I was wondering if the private owners were allowed to rent out their cabins or space for airbnb or similar situation because if you are not I dont see how these lots being bought by corporations would be allowed to.
Some of the folks on Facebook said we were not allowed...but I think they said that because they think it SHOULDN'T be allowed, not because they didn't know for a fact. The question was brought up, but no one could point to a by-law or ordinance saying anything one way or the other about it.
Personally, I don't see this as a bad thing necessarily, and it MIGHT be a good thing, say if these corporate identities decided to improve the roads maybe, or build an extra bath house or something.
But even if they DIDN'T improve the roads...I actually think 50 renters, who would be guests, and thus have limited privileges out there, would be better than 50 individual families, with full privileges bringing in their toys, etc.
I just don't think it's the big potential disaster other people seem to think it might be.
If septic is not allowed on camping lots, do y'all have outhouses, go in the bushes, use bucket toilets, or are there public bathrooms, or ???
If these rental units are popular, that might become an issue.
You're right. It might become an issue. BUT it would also be an issue if individual families bought the lots as well. And everyone seems more in favor of individual families buying individual lots, than someone(s) buying 20 or 30 at a time.
But individual families have full rights and privileges, including bringing guests and family passes...which seems like, to me, would actually put more strain on the infrastructure, then air bnb type renters would.

Well, what do the covenants y'all signed when you bought the property, say?

I don't know. No one seemed to be able to provide any documentation on the topic. It was asked, but in the Facebook Group, no one seemed to actually have any documentation regarding it.

The County courthouse may have a copy. They're typically required when filing the plat, or have been the last few decades. You probably should have received a copy when you bought your lot.

Your files should contain this information. As someone else pointed out, the country courthouse will have a record of all restrictive covenants on properties sold in the county.
Who's to say what may happen down the road? The new owners may want to go in a new direction and try to get a new zoning for their properties, if not the entire area. We're fighting a planned apartment development of 72 units in my community. No sewage available, no sidewalks on the roadside, you should see the paving job that was done just before the zoning notice was made. I swear 6"-8" drop off of new asphalt and the road isn't wide enough to safely pass 2 vehicles side by side in places. We thought maybe the owner was clearing this property and put 2-3 homes on it, just the right size for that, then, BOOM, ZONING NOTICE.
