Urination
 

While most state parks I have camped at have had working bathroom facilities, they’re in desperate need of routine upkeep as well as cleaning. If you want the public to continue to use your appointed facilities, then they need to be maintained accordingly. ESPECIALLY if the only “bathroom” that’s available is a port-a-John, they’re disgusting! I’d rather pee outside than possibly contract MRSA (again). And if I do choose to urinate away from camp, that’s my business - I shouldn’t be punished like some vile pervert exposing themselves in front of children & being forced to register on the sex offender registry. That’s ridiculous.
