Full disclosure, I haven't actually stayed here. I planned on it next week when I'm in Manitou Springs but after reading the reviews, I'll pass. I can deal with nutso people so it's not that. It's because it sounds like she feeds the local bear population. Combine that with the repeated reports about her hostility towards larger dogs, who will most likely threaten a bear, and this campground is a horrible accident waiting to happen. Any nature person knows that "a fed bear is a dead bear". The bears may be acclimated to people because she feeds them, but dogs are not acclimated to bears and if a dog threatens a bear, the bear will respond. This will lead to the bear being shot by the rangers.
