Overall very good. The grass needed to be cut, which prevented us from doing some of the activities we had planned. Chiggers don't make for a fun trip! It would be nice to have more parking for visitors.

This was the worst experience that I have ever had at a COE campground due to the extreme rudeness and hostility of the host couple. It all started when I said that I would like to spend the night in one of their vacant campsites. When I told the woman that I didn't have a prior reservation she looked at me like I was from Mars. She kept saying that I had to have a reservation. I told her that I had been staying in COE campgrounds for the last 10 weeks in 7 states and that I had never once had a reservation. She kept repeating herself over and over and over. I finally told her that I had heard her the first 5 times. I asked if there were vacant sites and she said that there were. I asked her which ones were vacant and she told me to drive down there and figure it out myself. This is what I did and I paid for the site using the Recreation.gov phone app. I wasn't in the site even 15 minutes before the husband was banging on my door demanding to know if I had paid for this site. I told him that I had only been here maybe 15 minutes, but that I had indeed paid for the site. I asked him if he wanted to see the email confirmation and he said that he didn't care about anything that I had. He then started yelling at me. Apparently his wife had called him and told him that I didn't have a prior reservation. He kept yelling and was extremely rude and hostile. I finally asked him to stop yelling. The whole experience was unbelievable. I was going to spend a few days there, but instead I got up early the next morning and got out of there as fast as I could. I've been staying in COE campgrounds for years and I've never ever encountered anything like these two hosts. I never have reservations because I'm never sure of where I'll be or when I'll be there. I've been doing this for years and I've never had a problem. Even here, they had open sites and I chose and paid for one in less than 15 minutes. This disgraceful behavior by this host couple was totally uncalled for.
