How strict are they to the 10/30ft sites? Once you get your car on your site, it does not leave much room for set up with 4 people/2 small tents? Is overlap ok? Is there space to spread out?

Hey there, I always find the spot is bigger than we think when planning the trip. I have done it with four people, a large tent, and also a shade tent. Also people are generally friendly about space, just try not to be over invasive. Just remember being, and having a friendly neighbor makes the weekend all the more fun!

I'm actually a little concerned about this as well. We are carpooling with three guys in one vehicle. I'm thinking it is going to be pretty tough to fit the car and three tents in the spot, let alone the shade tent we'd like to put up as well. Are there any tree lines near the camping spots where we could set up tents to avoid the morning sun and leave the actual 10x30 camping spot for parking and an EZ Up?

First-time Mtn Top Car Camping here! Going up with 5 of us squeezing into 1 spot (1 car of course), so it'll be a bit tight for sure and I'm hoping to get a spot near a tree line with some cool neighbors that will let us fit a little easier!

They had plastic forks marking off the spots, some gave you more room because you were next to a tree, bush, you have to wait down below and they escort you to a spot, they gave me a couple choices the guys who took me to my spot were very friendly the spot was awesome all cut grass. You will love it, it's also in view of the stage I could see the stage from my tent ! There are spots in the shade some have a clear view to the stage, you will like it I should of car mountain camped this year last year it was great. Last year if you violated your space the dudes brought out the little cosmic wheel of measurement like they use on the football field, there pretty much right on the money for size, but theres spots on the hill near you, last year not by the cars people popped little tents up by that building up there basically in back of car camping. Note the pic below you can clearly see one site marked off with plastic forks marking off from to the American flag by the other forks, they left a little emergency path open that's where the semi balding guy is dancing ! I also have some video of up by the Mountain Top Car Camping area waiting on photo bucket. s1352.photobucket.com/user/Natureyahg/library/?sort=3&page=1Attachments:

You have to use a cart that you bring or get a quad taxi to drive you up for $5. Attachments:
