the idea of the panopticon has this effect: if you think you're being watched, you won't do what they don't want you to do. it's the going theory behind fake video cameras. in fact, lots of security systems have video cameras with nobody watching the screens.
even if they are, so what? is there a posted no tresspassing sign? what's the legal problem? i wouldn't worry too much. go and be cautious the first time, see if anything happens (probably won't).
