Nice campground, the Park Attendants and Host’s are great but the rangers I feel overstep their interpretation of the rules by restricting electric kick scooters. This will push many adults who use them for mobility into driving actual vehicles making the campground roads busier. The thousands of dollars spent on the children wanting scooters to ride with their friends is wasted. This is a green form of recreation for our adults and children enjoying the campground, things like this make people not want to come back to a place we generally love.

Rangers at this campground are very strict. Cannot ride electric scooters day or night. Cannot even ride their bikes even if it gets a little dark. Don’t know what these Rangers expect children to do.
