Park was very clean. Bathrooms very good.All utilizes worked. Saw some spaces I will reserve next stay. Only one issue and it’s important. Dump station had problems. I’m sure they will get fixed soon.

It is a nice place. But need to turn hot water down in bathroom shower, need some kind of air in the bathrooms. It gets way to hot. Besides that I love shoal bay.

We really enjoyed our stay at Shoal Bay. The sites were large and had plenty of grass area for our dogs. We will be back again soon.

I think the park was well layed out. It was easy to navigate. Not a whole lot to do if you don’t have a boat.

We absolutely love camping here. We do it quite often. The park attendant is super sweet and amazing however, the one that does things when the normal one is off is horrible. If I would have known it was that person and not the normal one we have gotten use to several times this year we wouldn’t have went that week. Overall a great place tho. Just minus the bad second attendant.

Site A05 was a great site on the water. Was able to bring my boat to the shore for overnight parking. Both bath house were clean however one stall didn't drain well in the older bath house ladies side.
