busterthebronco 0 Posted April 17, 2015 Report Share Posted April 17, 2015 We had a young crowd next to us playing beer pong! We were relunctant to say anything to them because we were afraid they would get mad and become worse neighbors! The guy across from them went through the proper channels and they were upset to say the least!I told them as they were leaving that it was ok to camp and play beer pong but that Disney wasnt the place for it.It went in one ear and out the other.

I'm sorry you had rude neighbors In the past, I've tried kind and simple. I say "hey guys, I don't want to take away your fun... I'd actually like to join you... but I'm getting old and have little ones, so would you mind terribly keeping things down to a dull roar?". It hasn't always worked (especially if they are really drunk)... but we've been pretty lucky as that small talk usually makes the difference. Also, I try to make eye contact and say "hi" to camping neighbors (if they are at their site) when we are setting up. It seems like the friendly you are, the more likely someone is to try and be nice back. I think, for the most part, people who camp are not huge jerks and want to be nice neighbors. Again.. not always the case, but it's the best advice I've got Hope the rest of your trip was magical! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
keith_h 420 Posted April 17, 2015 Report Share Posted April 17, 2015 I will usually go to the ranger or campground host as it is their job to deal with these types of things. If they don't do anything I might talk to the folks or try to ignore it. It depends upon what the situation looks like. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I think this is a good way to go if it's just noise and not completely out of hand. If it's 2am and the carrying on is ridiculous and showing no signs of dying down, I'm probably calling the front desk. We've been lucky. The only time we were disturbed by neighbors was when some campers checked in late across from us, then proceeded to slam car doors for an hour. I got up in the morning expecting to see a vehicle with 28 doors. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I agree with you there! I wouldn't even leave the camper, if it was that late and that loud/rowdy. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Santa ... Shannon 160 Posted April 17, 2015 Report Share Posted April 17, 2015 And if they don't take care of it after one call, I'll tell them on the second call that my next call will be to the sheriff, bet that'd get some action out of Disney popo. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

pixiesteno 2 Posted April 22, 2015 Report Share Posted April 22, 2015 We had some loud neighbors move in about 6-7 sites away on one trip. They really set their site up as if they were tailgating at a Saints game. They were very loud and drunk disturbing most of the neighbors on the 100 loop. However, it was amusing to note there were several young children that got up early the next day from surrounding sites and they proceeded to enjoying themselves rather loudly. Later at the MK I saw one of our tailgating neighbors looking green around the gills and sweating her rump off in her black nylon NFL jersey! Yes, I did snicker to myself Sometimes it is amusing to see others "hoisted on their own petard" if you will. Had they continued the behavior for several nights I probably would have contacted the front desk. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Glad I'm not the only one who sits back and enjoys "poetic justice"...my DD 6 is an early riser and I sometimes send her out to do my bidding. pixiesteno 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
CCIntrigue...aka Gwen 547 Posted April 22, 2015 Report Share Posted April 22, 2015 We've been fortunate to rarely, if ever, have noisy neighbors. But I think I would prefer the noise over the blowhard that was our last neighbor at the fort. TCD knows who I'm talking about. We had to avoid him seeing us outdoors.

We had this same thing happen to us one year at the Fort and every time that they shut the doors they would push the keyless lock and toot the horn. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
stacktester 78 Posted April 24, 2015 Report Share Posted April 24, 2015 I had a pop up for a short time and about 2 am this guy shows up in the 2000 loop with his lights coming in my camper and beating stakes in the ground. Mind you there was only like 6 sites taken in the whole loop and they put him next to me. It was one of those low 30s nights so when I awoke at sunrise to break down and head home I cranked up my diesel to warm her up for about 30 minutes while I'm folding the pop up in a slow manner. I looked over a couple times to see the guy looking out his tent like are you just going to leave that truck running? Why yes, yes I am going to. I even decided to drive through the loop one more time for good measure. pixiesteno 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Really you were just checking to make sure you did not forget anything, I would have stopped and looked around the site to be sure. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

parrothead7368 aka Norm 101 Posted April 24, 2015 Report Share Posted April 24, 2015 This is a guy who kept my mom up most the night last year at Gettysburg Campground and than proceeded to fall asleep on the table all night.I took care of him by letting the four children play.........loudly...........next to the table. He figured it out the next night. Best Regards, NormSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to post Share on other sites
