Great quite campground with waterfront. Seen large pods of dolphins passing thru and even a shark feeding but was to far to tell what type. hiking/biking trail and plenty of raised platforms over wetlands. Seen plenty of slides in the marsh and even heard a big splash and thrash as we walked up but did not get to see what it was. We loved this park we only stayed 2 days because we was passing thru but I wish I had made it longer.

Nice place, generous site spacing. Bring a canoe w you. Can hear the dolphins surfacing in the waterway. The camphost did a good job, she was always picking trash as some guests did not bring their mother along to clean up after them. Dear forestry department: Please do not modify this site! It is nice, leave it that way

One of a kind location. Wake up on the ocean, almost. Bring food and camping amenities. Not much available close by.

Very nice place to spend some time. Upon arrival from the south, signage is poor. Entering the campground, at the loop is a low hanging limb that needs attention and another back by the dump station. We were in site 14 with plenty of space and distance from neighbors. Grounds are nicely kept. Very quiet and a little buggy at sunset.
