Site 157 is long and decent enough, though it leans to port a bit, I had to raise that side 3 inches to get the trailer level. My power management showed 124 V and no errors during our 4 night stay. A clump of trees and bushes block most of the light from the new unitized concrete bathroom building - those lights are EXTREMELY BRIGHT, my biggest complaint of campgrounds everywhere. The bike trail is nice, saw deer and turkeys.

My family and I love camping at the South Sandusky tent sites. This was the first time we'd stayed at T-4. When we arrived it was covered with beer bottle tops and we kept finding fish hooks on the ground (was just a bit scary with a 4 year old...) overall we had a blast yet again. Guess it was just the people who stayed before but wish there could've been more of a clean up before the next group arrived

Beautiful campground and site. Overlooking an inlet of the lake with both sunrise and sunset views. Easy,set up with a little extra space. The neighboring site is a little close, but not intrusive. We'd select this site again.
