We had a great time! We had to clean up around our campsite after we set up! The people camped next to us kept walking through our campsite! People walked their dogs along the grass, let them dotheir business and just left it! But other than that we had a great time. Saw the park staff, maybe three times

We really like this campground but the last two times we have camped there we have had electric issues. This time we had issues with the 50amp breaker not working correctly and I had to mess with it and I finally got it working. We informed the host and the were very nice and helpful.

Ray Behrens is a very nice campground. The shower houses weren’t as clean as they usually are, and I logged on to the RallsTech internet for 3 hours but only got one hour of service. The internet towers used to be on top of shower house, not sure where they are now. Usually offers a daily rate or weekly rate, but now $1 an hour only.

The campsites and facilities were great. But we have youg kids and would have liked to see more playgrounds for them. The only kid friendly playground was at the first loop. Which was a car ride from the back loop. Something closer, aka bike riding distance, would have been nice. The campground is nice and close to the visitor center, which had programs. That was nice for the kids. Also the beach was a short drive away.
