Yes, most likely.

Of course it is reasonable to like to use routing up to the lot number.
If you ever have been at a camp site with hundrets of lots for tents,
caravans and so on, some bigger than other villages, using street names
internally as well as lot numbers, you would agree.

Nevertheless: expecting routing engines to give turn instructions up to
the lot: no, I would not expect it, but I don't expect (free) routing
engines to use traffic statistics either, although it would be great
sometimes (probably that's a feature I could think about paying for, if
I had a car).

But even if a routing engine does not navigate up to the target lot:
Being able to look at a map (yes, probably a camp site map) and finding
my way the old way (you know, when there were no electronic,
satellite-based navigation systems) is a good start.
