Twilight Zone
We arrived late and found my name on door with a tent site. We went to find the site and there was no water or ele as all were primitive sites. I had specifically requested/inquired if the river tent sites had water/ele and she said they did, so not knowing what else to do, we moved to what we thought were the other tent sites and set up camp. The next day I promptly went to the office to officially check in and pay when I was informed the site I was on was a RV site and the price doubled for having a 120V ele cord to charge the laptop and cell phones. I told her that’s ridiculous and I would give her a couple bucks for the juice when she got rude and wanted to argue with me regarding our original phone conversation about what was said. She actually wanted me to break camp and move everything off the “hook up” site where I told her that wasn’t going to happen for night 2 at all and I would move. She actually acted as if it was an easy thing to do!! I left the office and went exploring the NP which brings me to my second and third weirdness. I was also told on the phone the entrance to smoky mtn national park was 7 miles away. It’s actually 12 miles away. She also told me to turn left out of the campground, when I could have turned right and cut off a mile or so. In all cases the park entrance is NOT 7 miles. We packed up and left. My experience there was like entering the twilight zone, crazy!! I pride myself on my ability to communicate. I simply can’t believe how many times she was wrong. On a positive note the bathrooms were clean and the WiFi worked well enough to stream a movie. I will add that I hit the shower early and saw no sign that anyone else had showered as there are 4 different private units. Unfortunately the water temp never got anywhere close to warm much less hot. Crazy! Our argument ended with her telling me there would be no charge. I offered to pay what she had quoted me on the phone (44.00 for 2 nights) but she wouldn’t take it. If she thinks that move would guilt trip me it didn’t work. On the contrary, it fueled this review.
