Had a really nice couple of days camping with our grandsons. If you plan on going to the beach, we recommend S.Sandusky beach over Marcum. Don’t miss the Sesser Custard stand….. during your stay.

We stayed in site 20 with full hookups. The firepit is near the back of the space so it feels more like being in the woods.
