My wife and I love the place. The only one thing, those ladies (host camp) are so rude… the fanciest thing: 2 different people but the same rudeness.

Camphost was on point. Firewood
for purchase seemed to be a rip-off. A lot of children were present on the grounds, but they seemed to respect quiet hours. Bring earplugs if you want to sleep in. Can't beat this killer location!

Very beautiful and clean campground! Lots of places to explore nearby. Sand Dollar Beach is a short walk/hike down. Just make sure you plan according to the tide schedule. We went during the time of day when the tide was high. Would recommend you go when the tide is low. We stayed at campsite 24 and it was very spacious. Water spigot and bathrooms were closeby. Will definitely be coming back.
