It was really hot so we took the wave runner out and other than that we didn’t do much but relax.

The campground is beautiful and we loved it, but with the outlet beach closed and the other beach so very muddy we couldn't take our 3 year old swimming. Will definitely be back when the beach is open!!

Site 148 was vacant and available when we arrived - OK. Asphalt had some damage and had a sizeable cooking grease spot. The picnic table also had a grease stain and someone had burned a hole in one end. Too bad RVers abused the site. We enjoyed the quiet space and the rest rooms. Janitorial service was not as good as in prior years.
Would be nice if a WIFI was available.
