Very quiet and secluded campground! Only 10 sites. Our site had lake view. Will definitely return.

Our favorite campground, in spite of the 2 mi road from hell to get there. No campground hosts for the first time, but our camper was safe while we were at the Seafood festival.

Very excellent campground. Nice and quiet. Camp sites are space very far apart. There was no internet or cell coverage. We had t- mobile. Showers were very clean and maintained.

For starters the amenities for this locations were excellent. Secured trash cans were everywhere. The bathrooms were neat and this is an excellent quiet get away.

Very well managed, peaceful, woodsy, small, clean campground with a very nice mile long trail around the pond. Bathroom was clean, shower was OK. The only downside for me was the total lack of Verizon cell service - spotty phone/zero data.
