South Sandusky, Loop Pin Oak, was wonderful. Small and quiet. The spaces are large and paved. Will definitely be back. The General Store on west side of lake is a must stop!

This campground is always so well taken care of. Clean and orderly and the sites are amazing. Need more full hookups but other than that It is great. I would also not close the beach so early.

This is one of our favorite places to camp. Sites are great size. Bath house I close to all sites. We really had no neighbors and woods outside the door and picnic area. Short walk to the lake and the paved biking trails are amazing. Though we have no kids the playground we could see the kids having a blast.

Loved the camp site ! Large and wide with shade trees. We definitely will be back.
The bathrooms were not cleaned daily of the millions of gnats that were there. I saw someone come by a few times and blow some out. Also, the showers were terrible. No water pressure at all. A little sprinkle in a straight line came out. We hated using them at all. Putting in better shower heads would be much appreciated. Also, more sites with septic hookups would be lovely😀.
