Hidden Acres Family Campground

I took my two sons here for a week this summer and it was awesome!! We went in the middle of the summer and the weather was pretty good.? We had a couple good rainstorms at night but it always cleared up for the day.? My kids loved swimming in the pool and the river.? The river was so warm and if you went out to the big rocks the water was rough and felt like a hot tub!!? My sons (7 and 4&1/2)had a blast riding their scooters all over the campgrounds with the other kids.? They spent most of their time trying to catch frogs and tadpoles and playing at the playground.? We went to the ceramic shop and painted a keepsake for home.? We will definately be going back next year.? My kids want to go for two weeks this time but we will see....

Then he says, because you're probably the ones disturbing everyone else. That what got me and my wife angry. Then he asked if we were in the water, and as we were answering no, he was flashing the light up and down to see if we were wet. At that exact moment the park ranger's accusing us, the guilty ones (the kids) came walking around the corner screaming and laughing and wet from having a great time, I'm guessing. So my wife already angry says in a loud voice, I GUESS THAT'S US OFFICER. He got really angry, his face turned red. He ran up to the kids yelling at the top of his lungs and asked what campsite they were at and that they were being evicted from the park. Then he came back over to us and instead of apologizing for making a mistake, he evicted us too. And he told me if my wife did not shut up, he was going to arrest her for bridge of peace. Then he told us we had to pack up and leave, we were in shock, it was ab...
