We made reservations well ahead of our camping time. The man on the phone was a perfect gentleman until we got there. Upon arrival we stoped at the store and paid for our site in full by check as requested. We were planning on staying...3 nights. The sites were in a big field and the majority were empty and and did not have shade. That was ok because we did have an awning. Each site had a small pavilion which had a picnic table underneath. Great!!! We love to sit at picnic tables that are provided and talk. After we were hooked up we took a good look at our site. Upon looking we realized that we weren't going to be using the picnic table because the grass had on ly been trimmed AROUND the table.In order to use the table we would have needed a long jungle knife to trim the grass and weeds away from the table and the benches. The grass was actually so high that it was growig over the benches and through the seams on the top of the tables. We ate dinner and talked around our camper table. ALL of the other pavilions were exactly the same way. As for the showers and bathrooms....there was one small building for the whole campground. 2 toilets and 2 showers. All showers There was one bathouse, with only one entrance, toilets were for both male and female.Each had a door on them. It was vety creepy to say the least. Male and female could be showering or going to the bathroom at the same time. One door in and one door out. Dim lighting and an unsafe situation. Also, there wasn't anyone around checking on the campground. Check-in was a mile or so down the road. What a disgusting place! An accident waiting to happen. During the evening we got a phone call that my husbands mother, who was 85, had to be rushed to the hospital. Her heartrate was very low and they were going to implant a pacemaker the next day. We waited until morning, packed up and went back to the store we had registered at. We needed to get back home, otherwise we would have just stayed our 3 days and never went back there again. When we spoke to the campground owner we explained why we had to leave. We asked if we might get back our money for the 2 nights we couldnt camp or at least be allowed to make up those 2 nights. He became nasty and very rude. We aked if we could give him cash just for the one night. His response was no then said he would cash the check and call us to let us know what he would decide about the extra 3 nights. (Again, keep in mind that this was an emergency and we really needed to get home. In all our years of camping we had never needed to leave our sites early. We even offered to let him read the texts that were being sent to us keeping us updated on her condition. He had no interest in confirming the emergency.) We left there with him keeping the check and yelling he would call us once he decided if he would give a refund or whatever. Two weeks later my check cleared and 3 weeks later no phone call so my husband called the campground owner. He explained who he was and why he was calling. The owner told him to shut up and hung up the phone on him. I would not recommend this campground to anyone. Refer back to my title. Thank you for your patience and time!More
