Too much attitude

The campground itself is nice enough, although some of the sites are small with absolutely no privacy. What made this the least favorite of our campgrounds on our 10 day circle tour was the attitude of the park employees, esp the ones at the entrances. When we arrived, it was 2:10, and check-in started at 3:00. Any other park we’ve been to in our many years of camping lets you go ahead to the site if the previous party has vacated. We were met with “Do you realize that you’re early? Check- in is at 3, and it’s only 2:10!!” We asked if we needed to come back and she barked “No”. Well, if it isn’t a problem, then WHY bring it up? This attitude happened each time we had to go through a gate. Also, the showers were cold at 10 PM. As for visiting the falls, it was a warm sunny day, and the lower falls was SO crowded with people in the water everywhere, that it was one of those “expectation vs. reality” moments. Went back the next morning after 2” of rain, and it was a totally different experience. The best part of the park was the brewery and restaurant at the upper falls.
