Thank you for the opportunity to post a question to the community.

We have a situation at our cabin with four neighboring cabins in a row (placed very closely together) with extremely large families. It is common for each of these cabins to have in excess of 25 people staying at them at once. The cabin next to us often has 25 and even upwards to 30 people staying there all summer long.

The impact is so great to the natural forest setting that we have asked the Forest Service if there is any limit on group sizes. They will not give us a solid answer except to say that they don't regulate group sizes and if there is an issue, it would be within the purview of the local health department who should regulate that as on overly high use of their septic system. I called the health department and they said the FS should regulate. So no one wants to deal with the issue.

I am curious if anyone else has run into this problem? I understand that some families are larger than others, but this feels like excessive use that is only getting worse as the years go by (and the families grow larger).

I would appreciate any information/ideas you have on this topic. We have good relations with our neighbors, they are nice people, we're just feeling run over by the numbers of them.

Thank you in advance for your input.
