If it was possible to give ZERO stars I would. The list is long and I understand the we are coming out of quarantine, but some of these things could have and should have been taken care of during this layoff.
By no means am I or my family city slickers and we have gone camping around Indiana a few times during the summer and into the fall every year. We either pitch our tent or rent a small sleeping for convenience.
Without further ado, here the list of atrocities:
1. Lied about the cabins. Said they had 2 sets of double bunks and a loft. Nope. Set of double and a loft. This is the first sign of amazing discoveries to come.
2. Grass was not mowed. Nothing like getting your shoes soaked on the way to the bathroom. Everytime. No picnic tables. (Those came later in the evening)
3. Cabin had a nest with baby robins above the door. So they stayed. Cause we have a heart. Nothing better than being dive bombed by mama bird from time to time. Feel it keeps us closer to nature I guess.
4. Garbage in the swimming pond. For a little extra ambiance.
5. Was told a grill would be at our campsite when we called. Nope. Another lie. So guess who had to buy a $25 grill at the local store? This guy.
6. At around 330 am. Someone in the campground and their party decided it was a great time to blast rap music for 10 minutes. (If you think it was just a neighbor, it could've been, but it was loud enough for the whole campground to enjoy)
7. At around 430 am. Someone in the campground and their party decided it was another great time to check the acoustics again, with the lovely melody of "You ain't nothing but a hoochie mama" (may have even been the extended version, or atleast it felt like it) seriously though, who plays the whole damn song?
8. We ain't done. Bottle rockets baby!! For the grand finale to end the show around 5 am.
9. If you were expecting to catch up on the sleep you lost. Nope. Gotta get the grass mowed now.
10. The railings for the cabins are rotten and a huge liability. Not sure why they demand a deposit, what is there to ruin in the cabin?! There should be a weight limit posted to sit on the porch.
11. Mattresses do not fit the bunks, so the top bunks, you get to be the taco fixings, or roll into the wall all night. You decide!
12. The loft is supposedly a double bed. It is. But only a twin will fit. The other half of your bed is at a 90 degree angle against the wall. So you got that going for ya, which is nice.
13. You want WiFi. Look no further than the name: "anus is delicious". Come on, that is just precious. (This was not the campgrounds WiFi, just one that popped up on the kids devices)
14. Mower came with 40 feet of cutting our grass on Saturday. So yeah, we still sitting around 3 foot grass/weeds.
15. Bring your own firewood. Period. There's I believe was just pulled from one of the ponds over the spring. Wetter than a piece of bread in a puddle. Everyone throwing up smoke signals.
Ok. We made it through the weekend. Only stayed cause we couldn't stand another weekend at home. And they did have a fireworks shows on Sunday. But by no means does it change the fact that this place is in the lower end of campgrounds.
I actually waited to post this, in fear they might not give me my deposit back. read more
