Host currently is a total bossy jerk with attitude issues. This place used to be affordable several years ago. Price was single digit price now 17 plus for america beautiful pass. I question price as not much updating done.

Really lovely, simple campground - we caught fish in the lake, enjoyed the quiet, and will definitely be back next year.

$31 dollars to put up a tent for a night with just the basics. Picknick table and fire ring. water in certain places. At least the pit toilets were some of the cleanest we encountered on our 10 day camping trip. Also it is far away from the beach and the dunes around the campground are not high enough that you could see the beach or a sunset. You can still get some pretty pictures just not of the beach or water.

Nice location, very good tent sites. And a lake with both trout and bass.

Good for RV camping. In a tent, you will hear the highway all night long over the very faint sound of the waves. Any sites near the restroom will have to endure an odor, despite it being very well maintained. Some sites have no level area without exposed roots (forget about a tent there). There is Forest and Dune hiking very close. Basically in Florence if you want to be close to town.

Very friendly host. Smaller site fit a tent and a canopy and two cars though! Lots of privacy. No trees to hang hammocks.
