Perhaps the OP has not traveled outside of Texas very much and experienced the diversity our country has to offer; diversity, especially in the many State Parks and how unique each one is, regardless of which state they are in.
There is a VAST difference in camp site spaces between the flats and openness of Texas and the hills and mountains of South Eastern Kentucky, just north of Tennessee and East of North Carolina, skirting the edge of the Blue Ridge Mountains, where campsites and campgrounds are built on ridges, hills, and valleys. It not uncommon at all for power plugs to be a distance from the actual campsite, for a water source to be one spigot for an entire campground section, for sites to be unlevel, tight, and have to maneuver through trees, windey roads, and hair pin turns.
If the OP does not want to experience this type of camping, they he should never venture into Kentucky, Tennessee, Southern Ohio, Southern Indiana, Southern Illinois, Northern Georgia, or Virginia, because this is pretty typical of what can be expected.
I get criticized on these forums for carrying a considerable amount of lumber (not plastic Lynx), but lumber, to use under the tires of my camper for leveling, as high as 9 inches on one side, and having the front of the trailer tongue touching the ground and the rear bumper 5 feet in the air!
I get criticized for carrying 200 feet of garden hose so reach faucets when there is no water on site, and 200 feet of 30 amp RV electric cord for those times (I've HAVE) had to use it all.
When these state parks were built, they had a logistical challenge to run electricity, water, and sewage into some of these locations, following the path that made the most logical and economical sense, and also the least evasive disruption to the environment, to preserve the forest and trees surround the camp sites to give the visitor a sense of what it's like to really be in the forests, must like it was when our country was first settled.
If this is too much for the OP, or too challenging, or too rigorous, or too frustrating, or too disappoint, then maybe he is better off never going to Kentucky again. We live in a big country, there are plenty of other places to go that do not include the Smokey or Appalachian mountains. I think that would rule out Pennsylvania, New York, Main, and Vermont too and those states are highly mountainous too.
Some folks are just not meant to camp in mountains. The sparse, more open spaces of the Western parts of our country are more suitable. For other, the mountains are a way of life.
For me, I like the challenge exploring a new location, navigating the camper into a spot that seems impossible, and being self-sufficient enough to be able to get the camper level, stable, and usable. That is 99% of the fun of RVing... the challenge of set-up!
I'm REALLY sorry the OP had a bad experience, bad enough to complain to the State about things that can't be changes ... although I will admit ... the flea market is kind of weird. And if he chooses to boycott Kentucky, all I can say is, I really feel sorry for him, because he is missing out on some of the best camping he'll ever experience!
