What are peoples experiences with this?
The Hennessy hammock has tree huggers that protect the tree. I've only ever once camped in a campground, and I had no trouble.

Also, on the issue of privacy for changing clothes, I do it inside the hammock when necessary and it is not that difficult to change your underwear and shorts while lying down.

One other thing that has come up is site choices. I'd look for one away from the Winnebagos and as far in the bush as possible.
