We love Rend Lake, especially South Sandusky, especially Pin Oak loop. The only fault I can find is that it was difficult to back into our site because the road is too narrow.

We stayed in the pine loop! There was a passing storm late on night and the trees provided great protection for the elements. Loop was quite and nicely shaded! We love staying at the army corp sites at Rend Lake! Very well maintained!
