At First Glance: Bland. Can showers be bland? Well, these
were. NO decorations, no color, nothing. The tiles that covered floors and
walls were a dull gray cream color.
Shower Power: Varied from shower to shower. Ben rejoiced in
his powerful shower – what he called a “pressure wash”, while my shower was
wimpy beyond comparison.
Hot or Not?: Varied from time to time. Whenever another
shower made an adjustment – on, off, hotter, colder, the other showers changed,
too, very unexpectantly.
What Made it Nice: A few hooks and benches here and there,
lots of changing space, and no competition from other campers.
What Made it Not-So-Nice: Our first insects in many months. Gross!
Lindsey really freaked out!
Overall Rating: 6 out of 10

At First Glance: This bathroom had ample showering and changing
space. A stylish blue and green shower curtain complimented the bathroom’s color
scheme.
Shower Power: Excellent! The best I’ve ever seen! So very, very
powerful.
Hot or Not?: Wonderfully, perfectly hot. Correctly labeled and
perfectly adjustable too!
What Made it Nice: The bathhub attached to this shower was a
real treat, as was the knowledge that it was really and truly clean. We didn’t
have to wear our shower shoes! ... Continue reading...

At First Glance: A building with two doors, each marked
family bathroom; a rather large room with a tall ceiling, wooden walls like in
a cabin, beautiful beige and brown tiles on the floor and the walls of the
shower. In this “family restroom” was a toilet, a spacious shower, a sink in
granite countertop on top of locked wooden cupboards, and a large trashcan.
Shower Power: Started strong, but became slightly weaker
with each flush of the toilet or running of water in the sink. Still, it... Continue reading...

At First Glance: Nice rose theme everywhere – in the lacy white
curtains on both the windows and the mirrors, the pressed roses hanging on the wall
as decorations, the rose-colored tiles, walls, and stalls. Fake roses even
draped the draperies above the bathroom mirrors!
Shower Power: Somewhat decent. Not quite powerful, although
probably due to the fact that we always showered in pairs. Showerhead was a bit
low too.
Hot or Not?: Hot, though sometimes unbearably so. Whenever a
fellow sho... Continue reading...

At First Glance: Heavenly in appearance. A lovely color
scheme, very well-coordinated. Two soap dishes and four bathtub corners on
which to precariously balance shower necessities.
Shower Power: Splendid! So strong, mighty, and vigorous!! Showerhead
was nice and high, with many adjustabilities to it.
Hot or Not?: Perfectly hot, but not very adjustable. I moved
it just a little colder, and it went freezing cold, so I moved it back, and it
was nice and hot again. But it was properly labeled. ... Continue reading...

We did not visit these showers because they were so disgusting,
and it was not worth the journey there for fifty cents per shower.

At First Glance: We walk up to a beige-colored building on
gray sidewalks through dead brown grass, and punch in the code, open the door,
and the color swallows us up like we’re Thanksgiving dinner. The hallway is alive
with color: bright green and brilliant yellow with a wavy purple stripe
separating the two colors the entire length of the hallway. On the right side
of the hallway are six doors to six showers, and on the left are two doors, one
to the men’s restrooms and one to the women... Continue reading...

At First Glance: Tiny showers, filthy floors, no shelves or
benches, just four metal folding chairs. Only one double hook in each itty
bitty shower. Very limited changing space, too!
Shower Power: Decent, but not impressive.
Hot or Not?: Easily adjustable and correctly labeled, and,
therefore, perfect! Mind you, the only really good thing about these showers!
What Made it Nice: Two little divets in the walls some
people would like to call shelves
What Made it Not-So-Nice: Everything abou... Continue reading...

At First Glance: Pleasantly clean, taking advantage of
natural light, ample changing space but not very spacious showers. Silhouettes
of Elvis, music notes, and guitars graced the walls to keep to the Elvis theme
of the campground.
Shower Power: Pretty powerful, but the showerhead was
unpleasantly low. Even our family’s smallest had to slouch to get under the
flow. And the showers screeched unpleasantly loudly in the ladies’ side of the
bathhouse, but not in the men’s.
Hot or Not?: P... Continue reading...

At First Glance: Approximately thirty shades of clashing
off-whites in an enclosed area. Ouch, it hurts my eyes! But this shower had a
bathtub attached to it, which was a special treat.
Shower Power: Very powerful, but also very loud.
Unpleasantly loud.
Hot or Not?: Hot, but ran scorching hot whenever someone
flushed the toilet or ran water for dishes or anything.
What Made it Nice: There are certain things you can
accomplish in the bathtub that you can’t accomplish in the shower. We w... Continue reading...
