We booked site #3 in January for an April visit.
It was the only site available due to the solar eclipse. Upon arrival our neighbors were not present but left their radio blasting rap music!
The ranger/volunteer stated that quiet hours start at 10 PM and our rude campers can blast their music as loud as they want until 10 PM
As I asked for a law enforcement officer, they offered us an emergency site. That site had no water, electricity only, but more importantly we had only one well behaved and relatively distant neighbor .
As a retired police sergeant I put up with a lifetime of idiots and assholes. I'll be damned if some jerk tries to subject my family to their version of loud noise when we go camping during my retirement.
Never saw a single LEO during our 48 hour stay.
I'm grateful for the emergency site but the idea that bullies rule the campground is a crock of shit and should be corrected, forthwith.
I wasn't even offered a partial refund for the lack of water. It's a shame that the volunteers are powerless against the assholes ruining the camping experience for all the paying guests who are considerate and pleasant .
In case things got ugly, I'm prepared to defend my family from violent behavior.

The man at the gate was very good to help me checking in and I would rate him a 5. The park not so well. The spaces were narrow and you could hardly walk beside your trailer without getting into the mud do to recent rain. The asphalt that was there is breaking down and is in need of replacement. Other Corp parks I’ve stayed in had wider pads and the overall condition of the parks was much better. Also, one phase of the 50 amp service was not working,

Volunteers are friendly. I’m upgrading my review by 1* because the ever so tall grass was mowed around the campsites the day after I complained. And to their credit, they only closed the specific flooded sites versus the entire campground when a dozen other COE campgrounds in a 100 mi radius cancelled every single reservation and closed down completely.

We booked site #23 not knowing that it was so close to site #24. We enjoyed our stay very much but would have liked to have had a little more privacy. Beautiful campground
