RUDE AND UNPROFESSIONAL

Wanted to camp here had everything set up willing to pay 2 weeks in advance then told that I couldn't stay because the owner said not showering for 2 week was discussing when I shower EVERYDAY and there are showers there on the grounds like wtf why would I not shower? Then said it's limited to 4 day stays when that was not on their website and then they posted it on there website and Facebook after the fact I will NEVER go here and I will never tell anyone to go here
