Lake Snowden Campground — Hotel in Athens

The lake itself is great, has lots of potential. But its definitely poorly mismanaged... We got put in a campsite that wasn't set up for regular electricity, but for a camper... diff. Watts. Ect. The kid in office was well aware we were in a tent... if it weren't for some fella campers who camp there for the season, who had adaptors to help get us electric, we would have had to leave. And we traveled almost 2 hours to get there.... The hours of the office that are listed on website, are not the hours they really stay. We arrived at 6:00 pm. And the office was closed. That was on Friday eve. On sat. When we discovered the elec. Box wouldn't work on reg. Amp. Elec. It was 3 o'clock. Went to office... CLOSED. Very unprofessional and decieving.. PLEASE GET SOMEONE TO RUN THIS BUSINESS PROPERLY..... we don't like the fact that there is no option other than reservations Online... should be able to call office during office hours and reserve sites that way as well........ not everyone is a computer whiz. Elders weren't raised in the same generation or fashion... OLDER AND FRUSTRATED... 🥵 PLEASE CONSIDER ELDERS AND OUR DIFFERENCES, AND MAKE THIS...

Reserved campsite for 4 nights. Arrived to check in and office was closed. No staff available except 2 persons at the lake pay swimming area. Went there to ask how we could contact someone about our camp area. We had no table, no fire ring and no camper pad area. Water was across the street and we were advised we could not run water hose across the road to fill up tank. Someone was supposed to meet us at our site at 3pm, no one showed up. We had to find our own table and fire ring. Also the shower house is unsanitary, reeking of mold, no toilet paper. All bathrooms throughout the entire park has been shut down and ports jons set in front of or beside. Those have not been cleaned for some time and are in need of servicing. This campground could be an absolute wonderful place if it had the proper staff and updated facilities. There needs to be staff that knows what is going on. Office needs to be staffed and messages need to be returned if there isn’t anyone in office during office hours. Very disappointed in what has changed since our first stay just 3 short years ago! We will...

Showed up at our site, which was dirt and tree roots. After getting our 5th wheel thru the trees, scratching our camper, the site did not have 50 amp that we requested, but getting past that, electric did not work. After 30 minutes waiting for help to arrive, they just moved us to another site, which was a trade down, because we went from waterfront to swamp. Looking throughout the grounds, pads were not level, trees not trimmed, grass has not been cut, dumpsters overflowing, and shower houses that were disgusting. Human waste on the walls and toilets, diffently not using them. This was a huge disappointment since they were just applauded for new water park when money should have been spent on upkeep of the campgrounds. Traffic was not controlled and no camp host for afterhours problems. This will not be on my list to...
