We stayed at camp spot #2. This was a perfect spot for us! Hauling a 20' trailer behind our jeep and another friend had a jeep and there was plenty of room in the camp spot. For our first time here, we had a wonderful time! Only thing to watch out for were the mosquitos!! They were bad! the bathrooms at the staging area were clean and stocked. Being right on the sand trail was great! The people before us left alot of garbage, so we did have to clean up quite a bit of cans, bottles etc.. We plan on coming back every year!

We stayed at campsite 1 and absolutely loved it. Direct access to riding on the dunes and a quick 1/2 mi walk to the ocean. We drove an expedition and had no trouble accessing our site as others have complained about. Just do your research and you won’t be disappointed. We prefer boon-docking so this campsite was more than we expected with gates that close from 10pm-6am, bathrooms with running water & flush toilets, plus the campground host is right outside the bathrooms which was about 1/4 mi or less from our site. It was quiet and clean but we also stayed Mon-Thurs. Would definitely stay here again!

We didn’t even get to use our campsite after driving 3 hours to get there, and had to find and pay for another place for my family to stay… the camp host has repeatedly told Rec.gov that the sand this time of the year is way to soft, and that people get stuck and he did not recommend even with a big 4x4 truck. So, Rec.gov knowingly rents these sites out and people loose money and time. So rude, and unprofessional.
