Review of Slumber Valley Campground

The first impression seemed favorable. It appeared to be a quiet, family oriented campgrounds. As time went by (we committed to staying 4 months full-time), we had a couple horror/issues with the owners. In addition, speaking with other campers - both seasonal & occasional campers - there were other horror stories from the owners more concerned about their picnic tables rather than notifying campers to evacuate because the creek was going to flood where the campers stood - the campers / RV's were destroyed in the flood (during our stay, the creek did overflow the bank in some places but the owners didn't contact us for any concerns) to giving a discount which was paid in full at the beginning of the stay and then trying to charge an entire month's fee for an additional 7 days/1 week stay plus overcharging on the electric and saying a canceled check was not proof of payment. We also, on several occasions, had campground employees come up and look at what we had outside (I had the car and my husband was there and caught them in the act). The restrooms were not serviced very well. In the 4 months that we were there the light in the women's shower worked twice so showering in the dark was the norm. Add in the fact that it was normal for debris to be on the floor, showering had to include flip flops and/or a floor mat to safely bathe. On a couple occasions, the campground hosted private parties that had loud booming music that literally vibrated our RV till well after midnight (1 - 2 am). Those times were not a pleasant experience. When campers were loud, there was no consequences for disturbing the peace. The rules they had in writing were ignored and the owners made up rules as it suited them. We will never stay there again. If you're a full-time RVer or even a seasonal camper, I would not recommend this campground and if you do, carefully check your bills as they have a tendency to double charge.
