AWFUL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!We have stayed at Russell Pond 4 times (for 1-2 weeks each) in the last 7 years. This was BY FAR the worst experience. We were there for two weeks (Wed to Wed) through the end of July.The facilities are in desperate need of repair. There was one shower working in the ENTIRE campground. Many of the bathrooms are closed entirely. The women's bathroom by the pond had only one (of 3) toilets and one (of 2) sinks functioning.The host (singular; she told us she was the only one) struggled to keep up. On at least two occasions (both Saturdays, I believe) the bathrooms by the lake were completely out of toilet paper. There are so few bathrooms to clean and there's not a lot of turnover on Saturday, so it was mind boggling to me that keeping up with supplying the bathrooms was an issue. We've seen hosts in prior years rake and thoroughly clean sites between guests. The only thing this host did between guests was empty the fire pit. The 'host not available' sign always seemed to be up, even when the TV was on in the camper and it reeked of marijuana.On one of the weekends, we speculated that the host put her friends in the site formerly occupied by another host (E4; water and electric on site). She was always there hanging out and had unlocked the electric box for them to use. We often caught whiffs of marijuana. The group that occupied the site had a dog barking nonstop, which the host did nothing about even while there. The icing on the cake is when somebody needed to back a camper into the site across the way (E3), they gently moved a broken down tent on E4 out of the way so they could make the turn into their site with the camper. Afterwards, we witnessed the host moving the tent (or cleaning it up) while YELLING at the site/camper across the way in a profanity-laced rant. Luckily, the family (with young children) that occupied E3 was not there to hear the craziness.Small thing, but there was never wood available for purchaseDisappointed

Wonderful campground. The pond is very nice and allow to swim after hiking as well as kids having fun. The only comments are the clean up of toilet and shower. I went there july 1, the shower for the service building in loop E was closed as well as 2 toilets out of 3. I went back the weekend of july 12 and it was still the same. this is unfortunate to see that nothing was done in 2 weeks to make it work.

What a disappointment, bathrooms closed, Porta pot's were reclusive, the bathrooms open didn't have tissue on two occasions, the park really needs some TLC.
