Noisy kids, drunks,rude people, dog dung
Might as well it's winter and I'm bored :B. So we already have the barking dog thread. Let's get it out of our system. Did I miss any? What gets your goat? You tell me yours I'll tell you mine

Smokers who do not put their butts in the trash .. better to get a bucket of sand to put butts in .. still remember years when at the grocery store parking lot, pull into a site, and there as I stepped out was a pile of cigarette butts from the car/truck ash tray ...
When was a Volunteer Host at campgrounds one of our jobs was cleaning out fire pits, and butts were the least of the problems we encountered, plastic this and that was the worst .. most times they were melted and on came the plastic gloves to remove ..
But seriously my pet peeve is people who leave potato chips, fresh fruit, left over sandwiches on their picnic table ... and ... leave for a couple of hours .. yep, here come the Raccoons .. next thing we know - those same people are complaining about the Raccoons - where the heck do they think they are camping ? Along the Coast and in the forests is where they are .. and Raccoons are the least of the critters they are inviting into the campgrounds. Just wish people would use their common sense when camping, cooking, and generally enjoying themselves.
AND we have turned off our patio light when it is obviously shining into neighbor's TT/etc.
And yes, we also camp/are sometimes tourists/enjoy camping even when not volunteering.
ON EDIT - forgot to say that these campers we all complain about are only about 10-15% of the populace who are out camping in campgrounds.
