We were lucky enough to score a reservation here on fairly short notice. It was immaculate with well developed fairly level sites. The tables and fire pits were all in excellent shape. The hosts were super nice too!

7/30 - 8/2
Lottis Campground- excellent as always

Baldy loop - clean and perfect neighbors

Loop camp host - terrible, very rude. Had complaints about everything we did..

We showed up a day early (yes our mistake) when we got to the loop and realized it she gave us attitude, while we were trying to figure out what to do for 1 night, a great guy Mike in the group area offered us a couple spaces for the night, she questioned everyone if we imposed on them, he stated he offered, the next day we told him we would be out immediately not to impose anymore than we have to, he stated it was ok to stay another night then we could, go to sites after, Host came by bitching at us about us taking advantage of him, wanted to know if we compensating him, and grilling us. Told her we had our agreement with Mike and it was none of her business, she continued to harass us about us being there.. we finally moved but her demeanor towards us for the next couple of days continued to be the same, we ended up leaving a day early to avoid her... hope she gets reviewed as a host and her attitude...
