Site # 176 pine tree in south Sandusky is very nice, right next to the playground, very easy access, and shady. The site is level. The chat patio is a little hard to keep out of the camper, when it is raining, other than that a nice size spot with plenty of room for slide outs. However, I think the dog situation needs some more regulation rules as to the breed of dogs allowed and how many per family, it was a very noisy weekend. Dogs barking at people walking, vehicles, bicycles, scooters. We were also afraid to let our grand kid roam around by themselves, because a few campers away the people had two big pit bulls that was aggressive to any one coming past on the road, while Walking around the park. another family had a couple of dogs that would bark at everyone as they walked by, they were very Loud and annoying when trying to sit outside the camper, or walking around the park and enjoy any peace.
