Do you have an inverter? I had this issue and the inverter has a switch that tripped on the inverter itself. Mine was a red button.
Check that power is passing through the inverter to the outlets.

We will look at that once the chiefs game is over.

The GFI will NOT reset if there is no power to it. Did you turn off all the breakers off then on?

If you have power out of the breakers then you need to pull the gfci and see if a wire popped out from behind the outlet or came out of a wire nut . either that are there may be a junction box where a wire has come unconnected from a poor install

No power coming to the GFI outlet?. That is your problem. There is a breaker in the main box marked GFI. Power goes from That breaker straight to the GFI outlet. It does not stop anywhere else first, Straight a to b. Check the breaker box with meter. Check for loose connections. GFI is marked line and load. Line side goes to the breaker. Load side goes to other outlets. GFI is the first stop on a daisy chain.

If you have a e-pro, check the inverter. E-pros go thru the inverter to the GFCI. The inverter needs to be rest. A red button. Check it first. Might save tons of time.

I would check the panel for loose wires as a loose neutral could be the culprit as well. Tighten all wires on breakers and neutral and ground buss. You may be hot to ground at your receptacles with no neutral path back to your panels if its loose or broken

If you have an invertor for solar power then there probably is a breaker button on the invertor itself.
Find the invertor and reset the breaker

Outlets Not Working
We had the same problem an a Ohio State Parks campground last year. Everything worked but the outlets. Checked the GFI, even removed it and took it to a local dealer to maybe get a replacement. They tested it and found nothing wrong. Went through the weekend with out outlets. When we plugged in at home they all worked, apparently the problem was in the park's electric service.

This happened to me. It was the outside 50amp cord. One leg was burned out. Test to see if that is it by plunging the 50amp into the 30amp with a connector. If it all works now then replace the cord.

Do you mean GFI or maybe GFCI?
BTW, this problem had been solved.

Did you have no way of testing the park outlet to see if it had power?
Did you ask the park staff to check it?
Get yourself one of these at the very least... so you can plug into the pedestal and see if the outlet has power. They can be had for $5 and will save you going without power for a whole weekend or running around to dealers looking for a solution to a problem that might be easily corrected.
