Restrooms were very clean and the sites are also. Nice and peaceful. Showers are cold but I didn’t use them being I was in a camper.

Site was nice. We have a big tent, which this site was not ideal for. A little more wild and well preserved than our neighbors.

We love love love this campground. It is well maintained and the camp host Roxanne was wonderful! When she was on duty she was out and about in the campground. Always smiling and offering assistance.

The reservation system needs reforming in regards to cancellations. There should be a much greater return on your payment when you cancel to act as an incentive to cancel. That campsite should become immediately available. (in many campgrounds there are reserved sites that are empty, and could be used for (@ least) walk-ins

Excellent tent camping experience at B-003 site. Shrubbery provided nice privacy. Quick beach access. Will be back!

I would give the highest rating, but rude, inconsiderate RV next to me wanted to run their generator all day and past 10:00 pm quite time. However, the wonderful campground hosts help me relocate to a better, distant, site the next morning. Other than that, the visit was great. Bathrooms were in great shape. Bugs were gone, and campground was about 80 percent empty. A wonderful visit - again, a shout out to the terrific campground host volunteers on duty that weekend.
