One of my favorite places to camp. Pristine beach access and greenway into town is awesome. Newish hiking trail across the road is a nice break from the beach.

Fantastic tent camping experience in April, it was a bit windy, but overall great place to camp. Bath houses were always clean and well-lit. Other campers were respectable and friendly. Fishing was spot on! We will definitely be back again!

Great hosts. Very nice mix of private and more open sites. Spotless bathrooms.
My only issue is with access to the beach. I have difficulty walking. The campground has ADA sites, but no boardwalk to the beach... a cruel joke for those camping at the beach to not be able to see the ocean. (It would be better for the dunes, too!)
You won't be able to do it until you're being funded again. Please do it then.
