One of the worst campgrounds I've stayed in

Generally, the campground and surrounding area are beautiful. However, there is a lot lacking.  I'm not sure if it's pandemic hangover or whomever manages the campground, but it wasn't a great experience. The main gift shop and restaurant at Mazama are still closed, on a holiday weekend. Seems odd.  There was a fire ban, which is understandable at the end of the summer, but there was no enforcement. We saw several people with campfires and never saw a ranger make a trip through the campground to police it. We woke up the 1st morning and weren't thrilled with site, so I went to ask if there was any way we could move. I was told they were full and couldn't move any RVs.  The entire rest of the weekend, the campground was never over 50% full!  Finally, the worst thing, is there are THREE showers for the entire campground!  THREE!!!!!  The campground has A through F loops!  How is this possible?!  If you could get in one, it was dirty, the water was cold, and the lights were out in one of them.  It's embarrassing that a National Park campground could be so poorly managed.
