Rend Lake is our favorite place to camp, and we camp there several times a year. The past 3 times we have camped in North Sandusky we have noticed that the shower houses and restrooms have a horrible odor. Camping across the street from one of these buildings has become very uncomfortable due to the smell. I do not notice this in the South Sandusky or South Marcum campgrounds. I hope this issue will be addressed and remedied because North Sandusky overall is a great campground. However, I think it would greatly benefit from some over due updates!

Great campgrounds. Well kept, spacious and gorgeous location. No issues with electrical connection, slight grade for specific site but was aware ahead of time

You probably should mow weekly because grass was high. Causing more chiggers

The tree roots are unbearable and very dangerous all around the table and fire pit.. This is an awesome site but the roots made me bring down the rating.

We had a very nice day end of summer vacation at North Sandusky Camp Ground. Our site #40 was prefect, the sites are very spacious and clean. The staff are wonderful. The entire park was just very nice I can’t say enjoy good things, we will definitely be visiting again.

Nice deep, fairly level site. Good spacing between sites. Park flush toilets are conveniently located directly across from this site.
