Had a good time. The marina dinner was great and service was outstanding. The camp host wasn't alot of help. Facilities were run down and dirty. Not much for kids to do.

The weather is not under control of Long Shoal unfortunately. Our plans included some kayaking however the relentless rain and wind did not allow it. That aside I can see the park is well laid out with ample space between sites. Most will accommodate the largest rigs. The only service is electrical. A dump is provided, along with trash bins at the entrance. Potable water facets are scattered around. Some are close enough to sites to connect directly but that may not be allowed. The central rest room, shower & laundry building is typical for an aged facility. It does need updating. The town of Warsaw is close with many favorite retail and food services including Walmart.

Policies & Rules
Arrival & departure
- A camping permit is required and must be obtained at the park booth. Limits apply to equipment and vehicle parking.
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.
