However, some campers noted noise disturbances from rowdy neighbors and car alarms, as well as a lack of privacy due to close campsites.

A great site. Got a little loud at times, and people kind of cut through camp to get to the trail, but we loved it.

Very Good #103 was last minute cancel and we got to come out for 1 night. Right across from the beach. There was great space, hot water, flushing toilets and stocked supplies. Wish they allowed pets! 🐶

Yes, sometimes people were unnecessarily loud at night. Yes, the restrooms were filthy. And yes, the reception was terrible. These complaints are all reasonable camping logistics. The location was stunning. The staff are responsive. The campsites are spotless. During our stay, there were tons of kids and happy families.

To be honest. The place was nice but the people were a little out of hand. They had security that would swing by before dark, but then when it got dark they stopped coming. The people were partying with loud music and shouting and drinking all through the night. From midnight all the way to 4 or 5 am.

I even told the camp staff twice and even called the number they game me. People were a little more quiet but they were still kinda loud. It was hard to sleep.

This place is a dump:
1. Toilets broken
2. No locks on stall doors
3. Soap dispensers falling off walls
4. Trash overflowing
5. Water source fouled with food waste
6. Garbage everywhere
7. Campsite group size grossly exceeded
8. No quiet hours enforced
9. Security did not enforce rules

“Great campsite! It’s really close to the beach, the restrooms and showers are clean, and the staff is very helpful. The only small downside is that the campsites are a bit too close to each other.”

Clean restroom, lots of space for 12 person, although there’s a bear walking around every night they are not aggressive unless you provoke them. Best camping experience
