I have been here one night, not even 24 hours, and the amount of disrespect, rudeness, and overall cruelty by the camp host has been extremely dissatisfying. My mother, who is 70 with physical dissabilities from surgery was verbally assaulted last night, she was left in tears and frustration. The camp host actually said “i will get as much money from you as i can!” He has been threatening to ruin our vacation knowing that we are so far from home. He is difficult to explain situations to and is so self absorbed that if you complain about him or the camp he will threaten to call the sherrif or kick you out. I have talked with other campers and they all have similair stories. The bathrooms are disgusting, and its 1.75 for three minutes in a cold shower, I would not recommend this campground, please save yourself and think twice about coming here.
These camp hosts are the rudest most disrespectful people we have EVER dealt with. They laugh at you and tell you “GOOD LUCK” when asking for advice on anything! Oh, and the way they maintain it? I wouldn’t want a gutter rat to use those restrooms! They might catch something! $%#@ you and your rude attitude! I hope karma finds you unemployed and homeless! You certainly do not deserve to be hosting a campground! USFS has really lowered their standards when screening park host candidates!!!
