[A/S] Re: Inconsiderate Campers
HI Bob,
We are "relatively new" at this, But are "out" every-other-weekend,
or so. Our experience's are;
City, County, State and Federal camp grounds tend to be nore noisy.
Especially... lake area's where they allow jet ski's, etc. (These
toy's seem to attract more number's of that kind of crowd). The best
are privately owned compounds, and most especially those whose
owner's also live/manage the camp ground.
The cost difference between the full facility parks and the
government camps(Northern Sierra Nevada's) average around $6 to $17
more... BUT... you get full hook-ups, plus showers, laundry, pool,
cable, etc, etc. AND... your "outside gear" that is easiest
to "store" outside is MUCH more secure. Most of the private park's we
have stayed in have seasonal guest's who leave "outside" gear outside
for the season. The government parks that have been the quietest,
most enjoyable, have been those far from water. Go figure.
Oh yeah... you pay a premium($8-9.50) for reservations at the
governmant parks... not so at the private parks. Every government
park we have stayed... the "host" has been super. They just
can't/won't enforce "quiet time". Some of these guests can get very
agressive, they tell me.
Bob :)
