Seespitz Strand

We stayed at a campsite for more than a week, enjoying a lovely view of the lake. Unfortunately, we had the misfortune of having a loud and rude family next to us. Their children and even their parents would walk right in front of our tent, leaving us with very little privacy. The situation worsened on Saturday when a group of young men arrived with a party tent and blaring music behind us. It's puzzling why the campsite allowed this, as I'm sure other guests must have complained about it. The women's restroom facilities were unpleasant; the toilets were closed on several occasions. Additionally, the showers were placed too low on the wall, making it difficult for taller individuals to reach their upper back without having to use one hand to hold onto the shower. Furthermore, there wasn't enough parking space available near the tent sites. The overall cleanliness of the campsite was lacking. We decided to check out early, but the reception informed us that we couldn't get a refund for the remaining days due to bad weather, even though that wasn't the actual reason for our early departure. Our stay at the campsite was simply unpleasant during our vacation.
