when we were there was the septic tank filled up and caused some of our grey water to seep out from around the sewer hose.\u00a0\u00a0 The campground host found it and called a sewer guy right away and within the hour it was fixed.\u00a0\u00a0 Odd thing is it didn&#8217;t stink.\u00a0 Although the liquid he doused it with later did smell a bit chlorinated.<\/p>\n<p>Turns out they have an interesting sewer setup.\u00a0 They have three fairly large tanks underground, and they have a pump in them that uses a float mechanism to turn it on and off.\u00a0\u00a0 That pumps up the goo to a sand filter on the other side of the park.\u00a0 There was a broken water pipe a few weeks before and the host asked the county maintenance guy to shut off the water so he could fix it.\u00a0 Apparently he also turned off one of the sewer pump breakers, so the pump hadn&#8217;t been working for a few weeks and that one tank filled up.<\/p>\n<p><a
