The hosts introduced themselves and were very nice! The campground was well maintained overall but the pit toilet receptacle was quite full and could use an emptying. In years passed, there was a working light above the doors, but it was burned out or else needed a new fixture. The shower house was extremely dirty with muddy floors. The shower itself only stayed in for a second. The button had to be held on the entire time which made it almost impossible to shower.
We love Loleta but there are some major housekeeping issues.
