As a tent camper, I appreciated a dish washing station, which is rare to find anymore. I also really liked the water fountain and water bottle filler in the campground - very useful!! The sites are large and well-maintained and the couple running check-in were super friendly and knowledgeable.

The whole campground was very clean! No trash in fire rings or on ground around the campground. Restrooms and showers were also free of trash and although older were kept clean. Beautiful mature trees between campsites with enough space between sites to feel almost private. Staff was very friendly and came to our campsite to introduce themselves and make sure we were checked in and happy with our site. Check in was super easy! Since we reserved our site online all we did for check in was confirm our name and dates reserved. No electric hookups but I brought my power station to recharge my phone and other electronics I had with me. To the volunteers, thank you for all you do to keep our parks beautiful!

We enjoyed the beach right down the road! Close to gas stations, a few towns, stores, and trails. We were able to do laundry at a laundromat about 10 minutes away and get groceries in the same spot. The campground itself was quiet and tucked away, which was nice, and there were nice showers, but the driveways were very small and hard to accommodate our pop-up camper and car, and a little less private than we would have liked. We didn’t have a great experience with the staff either, so we spent most of our time away from camp and only came back to sleep.

The host was less than hospitable I would even say grumpy and definitely invasive. I e been camping here for 25 years every year and this was by far the worst experience

Policies & Rules

Arrival & departure

Check out time

12PM

Cancellation policy

  • Reservation fees are non-refundable. For campsites, cabins, lookouts, yurts, group sites, and similar stays, we charge a reservation service fee of $8.
  • Standard cancellations usually have a $10 cancellation fee. Customers can generally cancel before the check-in date online.
  • Late cancellation rules differ by stay type.
    • Individual campsites: cancelling after 12:00am local time the day before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
    • Cabins, lookouts, and yurts: cancelling less than 14 days before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
    • One-night reservations: a late cancellation usually forfeits the full amount paid, up to the total original reservation cost.
  • Modifications are allowed before the cut-off window, but fees depend on the change. Changing to dates completely outside the original reservation dates may trigger a $10 change fee. Extending or shortening a stay that still includes original dates usually has no change fee, though refunds may depend on timing and facility rules. Switching to the same type of campsite for the same dates usually has no change fee, but price differences are charged or refunded.
  • Early departures may or may not be refunded. At certain facilities, partial refunds may be possible if staff can mark the site available for other visitors. No refund is given for a night if the early departure is requested after that day's check-out time.
  • Security deposits are separate. Security deposits may be refunded to the original payment method if the facility is left in acceptable condition, as determined by the property.

  • All visitors must have a valid entrance pass, which can be purchased on arrival or in advance.

Vehicles & parking

  • Vehicles must be parked on the paved area of the campsite.
  • Park in the Lake View parking lot, not in the Town of Beverly Shores' beach parking lot to avoid tickets.

  • Observe daily quiet hours to respect other guests.
  • Keep valuables out of sight in your vehicle to prevent theft.
