Site was beautiful as always. Camp hosts were kind and accommodating. Although the toilets weren’t working, there were plenty of portable toilets and they were serviced when we were there, making for a better experience.

There is not much privacy at the campground and the parking is not spacious. But it’s close to the beach cross the street, the scenery is just phenomenal

Easy to find site. Quiet . Site was sloped for a large tent. Spigots marked as non-potable due to cracked water storage, so we had to filter the water. Slightly annoying. Great access to sand dollar beach.

Love giving my money to a third party when my tax dollars fund the parks. What a shame
