The present tagging of camp sites can (if tagged) provide
discrimination/distinction between those that charge a fee and those
that don't.
Jan, think more about what your trying to achieve? I don't think it is
about the fee .. but about the specialisation of the site? It is going
to be difficult to put into words... Wild, informal ... primitive... vs
organised, formal ? I'd not distinguish between a camp site that is
only a camp site and a camp site that is associated with a
hotel/pub/motel. The location of the two on the map would give you that
idea?
Don't worry about it being rendered .. just the tagging. Get that right
first.
