I do not want to give a rating because I do not want this little secret to become hard to reserve!
This is a lovely campground. It is quiet because it is small, and the beach vehicles are in other campgrounds. Just a short walk up over the ridge reveals a splendid view of the beach. The ride into the campground from the main highway is beautiful. Camp sights are clean and adequate and the restrooms are fine and well kept.

The park hosts were beyond great. Very helpful, very friendly. The camp spots and service road were somewhat short and overgrown for a large 5th wheel.

This is a beautiful campground; there are a few nice trails and all the racket from the ATVs on the dunes dies down as soon as the sun starts to go down. Make sure to bring your own firewood as there is seemingly nobody around to help with anything. Thankfully there was one volunteer type person who shared some wood with us for a fire.

Beautiful campground, but do be aware that the daytime / evening noise of off-road vehicles is significant. This also means that trails are not particularly suitable for hiking.

Good clean campground, some were large enough for a tent along with your rv

Lovely campsite with shady ptiches. It was busy so we expected it to be noisy but it wasn't.
The beach is amazing and we even saw seals swimming in the surf.

Peaceful. Kayaked in the river. Walked to the beach. Almost all the other campers masked-up on trails which was nice to see.
Saw river otters this time!
