    I agree that it is nothing to be concerned about if you don't flaunt your drinking. I would say most people are drinking at their sites but if your idea of camping looks more like a tailgate party then you could have problems. If they did allow drinking I could see the whole campground turning into a big party.
    We had some issues with local municipal parks being turned into party spots a couple of years ago. People from out of town were chartering buses to come in and party at local parks. They would bring DJ equipment and some even brought their own sofas and lazy boys to lounge in. And of course most left all of their trash and furniture behind at the end of the day. They had to create all sorts of new laws and keep police posted to get a handle on it. I suspect a scene like that is what they are trying to avoid with not allowing alcohol in state park campgrounds.

    You can have alcohol in camp sites at most WA state campgrounds... but there is a clarification that states:
    (5) Dispensing alcoholic beverages from containers larger than two gallons is prohibited in state park areas :nuh_uh: 
    Not sure I have room in my T@b for a 2 gallon container of anything!

    New York State campgrounds have a similar anti-kegger rule.

    NC state parks are all posted "no alcohol", fortunately for me as I have gotten older I rarely have any desire for alcohol anymore. If I do, it is typically one or two beers and I want something decent, none of the stuff that I drank like water when I was younger. I had my share, and probably a few others share too. People still consume it in NC state parks and it doesn't bother me as long as they are respectful of others as mentioned by several people above.

    "Virginia state law permits alcohol use only in private areas (inside a cabin or camping unit) or in areas designated on permits..".  I wonder if "camping unit" is intentionally vague - would that be our trailer, or could it be our campsite?  Regardless, I've never been asked what I'm drinking while sitting at our campsite picnic table.
