The beach area was closed but the location was secluded and quiet.

Nice quiet location. Bathrooms were convenient and clean for a campsite. Water and dump station available and easy to access. Campsites were large with enough space to not be on top of the neighbors.

I loved camping at Flanners Beach. I stayed 7 days, 3 non electric and 4 with hook up. Plenty of nice trails to walk my dog. Peaceful & quiet. Nice beach with great views. Host was super helpful. The only thing I didn’t like was the shower. People don’t know how to clean up after themselves, or maybe they just don’t want to. The water was lukewarm, which made my shower uncomfortable. Other than that I would definitely camp here again.

Almost all of the bathrooms were out of order. I feel sorry for tenters

I realize that the war in Iran takes precedent over public restrooms, freedom comes at a cost, but bring your own toilet to this campground.

Nice quite campground, sewage pump was out of commission for a while but repaired by the time I left. Some of the facilities in need of repair but that is at the mercy of those that hand out the dollars. Too bad the stairs to the beach have not been repaired.

We love the location, roomy sites, shade, trails and beach. But 3 out of 5 toilets were out of order and the dump station was closed. This campground needs more attention and funding! Since there was a shortage of toilets we used ours in our camper so we had to pay $39 to dump at another campground on the way home. Host and co host were active and we did receive a phone call about the dump being closed ahead of time.

Toilet and showers out of service. The dump station out of service. Looks like they need to spend time and money getting up to standards for a camp ground. We paid full price for less than full service.
