Don't ask don't tell ! Too many nosey neighbors.....! Too many camp sites too close together. Too many dogs/canines barking day and night! Too many rules and regulations. Too many human friendly wild life enter tent camper. Do not honor refunds. Minus stars! I tried 3 different occasions! As the old saying goes " Three STRIKES YOUR OUT! PREPAID 3 EXTRA DAYS CAMPSITE EMPTY WITHOUT REFUNDS!
