What Guests Are Saying
Eagles Nest at Camp Richardson Resort offers a beautiful setting with convenient access to the beach, clean bathrooms, and helpful staff. However, some campers noted noise disturbances from rowdy neighbors and car alarms, as well as a lack of privacy due to close campsites. While many enjoyed the amenities and spaciousness, there were complaints about maintenance issues and hidden charges.

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

“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.”
