Site was enjoyable to watch the sunset. Clean shower house and bathrooms. This loop had parts that were close, yet many with a decent amount of space between them. Loop has playground, but you can't see it from this site. This site is a stone's throw to a tiny, tiny beach area. Cell service was good.
