Host was rude, unprofessional, and a scammer. Upon arrival I had approached the host asking what sites were available he nicely responded with the site numbers. He said I could pay at the board upon entry and drop the cash in the envelope there. I went up to the board and noticed I can pay using the QR code through the app. I did such and I told him we paid so he gave us the permits for our vehicles. The next morning as we were waking up he was sitting in his cart waiting and glaring at us. Not even steps out of my tent he yelled at me that we all needed to pack up and leave because we didn’t pay cash keyword cash to stay our two nights. He said if we didn’t pack up and leave he’d call the ranger and have us removed. I tried talking to him in a calm manner and showing him I paid through the app but he just ignored my attempt at proving I purchased through the app. He aggressively yelled more and said to pack up because the rangers on her way and that he is entering us into a data base the will not allow us to camp there anymore. I believe he truly is scamming people and kicking them out if they pay online because he can’t pocket some of the cash himself. This is unfortunate because it was such a beautiful site with easy access to the lake. I really do believe James the host needs to be evaluated or replaced especially with how other reviews seem to have similar experiences with him
