Unfortuneatly it happens. It's the luck of the draw. No matter what you do (go to a movie, a concert, a play, even an elementary school ricital/band performance, and yes, a campground), somewhere, sometime you're going to end up next to an "idiot". I have quite a bit of patience and try to live by the golden rule, but some folks just figure they have a "right to act how they want.
I have found over my many years that I get better results by befriending my neighbors as quickly, and as best I can. Confrontation usually escalates the problem. If you pull up, say Howdy and offer a drink/cookies, or a hand with something they seem not to want to disturb "The old couple next door". Not always, but usually.
As Washington residents we have used the State Parks quite a few times. In fact we head out for one two weeks from tomorrow, and have had very few problems.
I too would be curious toknow the park the OP was first refering to.
