I just had to write a review when I heard what these other folks said. We were camping next to them!! This group of families almost ruined our vacation! It was so quiet and peaceful until they arrived. This is our favorite campground and we like how it's run.
They arrived late, around 10PM. The kids were yelling and running around, but the parents did nothing about it. We gave up trying to sleep and sat by our fire until they went to bed.
The next day we found out just how "considerate" they were. This is a great fishing river, but every time my husband tried to go fishing those kids would be throwing rocks into the river right where he was. They almost hit him! He finally gave up until they left on Sunday.
The kids were everywhere and played on everyone's site and the parents said nothing. One of the boys on the site next to us was hitting rocks with his metal baseball bat, must have done it for at least an hour. He finally stopped when his dad yelled at him for almost hitting him with a rock. It didn't matter that the constant noise was driving us up a wall.
The kids kept cutting through our site to get to the river. It didn't matter that they had their own large river sites to play on. There was no reason that these kids couldn't play on their stretch of the river, they had big sites. Stay off of ours!
On Saturday night they stayed up late again, really late and kept us awake. We were so happy when it started raining, we hoped they would go to bed. Then they started up a car and kept the headlights on, which was totally annoying when you want to sleep. We had some loud voices and finally the car was turned off. Didn't these idiots realize that people around them were trying to sleep.
We heard the campground owners talk to the parents and kids several times, but they could have cared less. These people were selfish, only cared about themselves, they had no respect for anyone camping around them.
We were so happy when they left Sunday morning, everyone was. We camp here for peace and quiet, not to annoyed by self centered parents and bratty kids. The owners apologized to us about the noise and gave us a free night of camping. We really appreciated that extra night, we needed it.
We camp here for the quiet and the beautiful river. Which by the way is fun to tube in. We also like their farm animals. Their website states they are a quiet campground and it also tells you they have a farm. That's what attracted us. I'm so glad that this was not our first time camping here, otherwise I might thought that these awful campers were their normal crowd. |
