Sandy Beach is a nice place to camp with the family. Small and quiet which helps make it relaxing. There is a nice little jungle gym for the kids to play on. Plenty of open space to play catch or run around. The restroom facilities were very clean and nice. The host was very helpful for us new-time campers. The only downfall was the "beach" is not really a beach, it's more of an entry point for boats so that was a bit disappointing. Overall a nice place!

Great spot! Near the entrance, so you don't have to go too far, also near the clean water and firewood. Great spot next to the wooded area and not crowded at all. Spots are far apart from each other.

The only unfortunate part of this camping spot is that we had a large group in the spaces behind us with many children. They were constantly walking directly through our campsite to use the bathroom. Not very considerate. We moved the picnic table to cut down on part of the route they were taking. I hope we have more courteous neighbors next time if we are to stay in that spot again.

We had a great time. Beautiful campground. Only complaint, a lady and her daughter would bring their very aggressive dog everyday and let him walk without a leash. She was not camping and her dog was not friendly. Should not allow them in the campground when people paying have to leash theirs.

Well kept, clean campground. Our only issue was the water had A Lot of chlorine. Located off the main roads, but still close to several destinations. Sites had a nice mix of sun and shade, as well as close to the water. Grandkids enjoyed the playground.
