I recently read a review by someone who blamed a campground because their flip flops were stolen from the beach and their shower caddy disappeared after they, admittedly, left it in the shower.
Seems to me this is more of a problem with your fellow campers, not the campground. To lower a campground's rating because of this is disingenuous. When giving reviews, please keep them directly related to what the campground offers and not your disappointment in the honesty of your fellow campers. |

We've had a couple of instances where our cooler was broken into at our campsite...to me that's a reflection of campground security or lack of it. I've rated lower because of this but it certainly wasn't a deal breaker with my online reviews...more of a heads up for other RVers who might be staying at the campground. Mike |

Mike I don`t know where you were camping but are you sure it was a person? Raccoons, Squirrels and other critters get real smart that live around a campground,  Wink -------------------- Home is where we park it.

Actually it was two beach area campgrounds...most likely teenagers Mike |
