Great campground with easy (walk across the street) access to the beach (it's rocky, but still a great time). Market, coffee shop, restaurant close by. Bathrooms clean. We would stay here again.

Great Spot. Nice Staff... except for the one crabby guy but to his credit people do drive a bit fast in there. I'd probably be frustrated too. The lady who checked us in could not have been nicer.

Great spot with great hosts. Loved the bears walking through camp and the access to a good store and the lake is incredible.

Awesome and quiet campground. The campground itself wasn't too big but the areas between sites were spacious so great for privacy. We got site 19 and could barely hear the cars on the road. The campground hosts were really nice and told us a lot about the amenities and what to watch out for.

We stayed at #20 site, it is a pretty big site, good enough for three tents. We did tent camping.
However few issues observed- 1. The camp ground doesn’t have electricity in bathrooms, so no light in bathrooms.
2. The trash is not segregated for recycle.
3. The trash cans are few in number.
4. Restrooms doesn’t have bathrooms.
I would have expected few of these.
Thanks
