Beautiful tent campsite. Clean bathroom/showers nearby. Friendly staff. Shopping nearby for anything you forgot to pack. Fishing is good. Nice bike trails. Lot's of wildlife to enjoy.

The picnic table at this site needs to be replaced. It would help if it was power washed even. We couldn’t use it because it was so dirty. We tried to clean it but couldn’t get the grime off. We noticed that many other sites had been updated.
We love this campground and will definitely be back just not at this site.

South Sandusky Pin Oak #209. This loop is so quiet and peaceful! Great site…on a curve so kind of off by itself with a huge yard, paved patio area and a direct path in the back to the bike trail. But…..the “need to know” doesn’t say anything about any type of slope on this pad and that is very misleading. You can’t really tell from the photos, but there is a pretty big side to side slope which will require a build up of about 5”. That may not be a big deal to some, but we had to get additional leveling blocks to get set up that high…would have been nice to know that going in.
