Yeah, given the weather you guys have had, I'd expect plenty of water there right now ! Wish we could have some of it ....

I'd use drinking_water:seasonal=yes, seems some 4K uses of that sort of structure. My point is that using camp_site=basic does not exclude you from describing the camp_site using the other existing tags. Again, its a short cut to assist in finding a possibly suitable site, end users will quite likely seek additional info beyond camp_site=*.
