Not everything they say it is

We made reservations and after we get there they tell us it's another $7 a day per person for entry fee. Plus they wanted another $14 a day for the kayaks that we had on the back of the trailer that we had no intentions of using while we were there. I sounded good at first but we regretted staying there. WOULD NOT RETURN...
