We spend a majority of the year traveling. Generally we will visit 15 to 20 campgrounds, most of which we have never been at before. I estimate that 90% of those CG's have a friendly helpful staff.

Due to the location and price of this campground we continue to put up with her, just like other campers there do.
Based on our limited experience, it seems that other RVers working as camp hosts make the best people to have working your front desk at the CG. They are generally more friendly, obviously understand your needs, and never seem to be in a bad mood.
Your post hits a grand slam homerun with me!
