Attendants were rude and the fire pits were not cleaned out. There was trash everywhere and the primitive toilets stunk so bad you could not stand to walk by them.

Crab Tree has lots of trees. It is easy to get down to the water. Other than that, the upkeep is failing. The under growth isn’t being cut back far enough and the pads are crumbling. The areas around the pads are trip hazards. Be sure to bring an extra step to enter your trailer because the drop offs are large. And bring something to help level your trailer.

We all ways have a good time at crabtree. Over the summer the new gate attendance have warmed up and all ways say hello when they go by, and a while back said they would clean the fire pit if we asked them.
