Description of site did not say how steep it was. Bathroom was disgusting and cleaned by other campers who also donated toilet paper. Unfriendly host who also locked the family bathroom and turned it into his private bath. Doubt we will be back.
PA has the nastiest bathrooms of all the states we traveled this summer. Some had signs stating they would not be cleaned daily, others looked like they hadn’t been cleaned he whole season, fecal matter present, mold and filth. You have camphosts that get free sites for duties, if they don’t want the job then they should be replaced. Many were beyond gross and completely unsanitary.

The hosts Rich and Teresa were excellent host . They greeted us with a true concern for our well being. they were constantly working to keep the bathrooms clean and the lawns mowed. They had also gone over and above and planted flowers.
You picked some great people to host
