Overall, North Sandusky is a great campground! The camp sites are spacious, most sites are partially shaded, the campground is on Rend Lake, and you can’t beat $26/night for full hook-up. Site #51 at Wood Duck was spacious and mostly shaded. It was easy to back into and included a nice concrete pad, picnic table, and fire pit ring. The only downfall was that it was next to the public restrooms, which caused some foot traffic and less privacy than other sites. At times, there was a sewage smell. The site is also very sloped but still manageable.

The American the Beautiful Park and Recreation Pass is not accepted at this site. Not sure why.

Great site. Plenty of open space. Level site. Host was friendly and helpful. Ranger was friendly and helpful. Only one dump station meant congestion at departure on Sunday. Lots of trail to walk.

Was our second visit to the campground is very well kept and very friendly and helpful staff.
Only thing that was annoying was we had other campers going threw our campsite at all hours they had a boat parked in the water behind our site and were very loud.

Sweet Gum loop is pretty flat, and the sites are big. With only eight spots it was extremely quiet even on Memorial day weekend. Bathroom and shower house was an easy walk from the loop.
