Beautiful campground. The only problem was that the sites were very slanting downward so it was hard to level our motorhome.

The camping spots were set up horribly. Lots of the pads were on top of a hill so you would basically step out of your camper and fall down a hill. Also all the camping pads were laid backwards, so most of people’s doors open up to the right, but you could pull out any awnings because there were trees preventing that. Bathrooms were clean and the camp host was nice. Quiet time is at 10pm even generators

We loved the campground, but we were the only ones, it seemed, that kept our dog tied up in camp, and on a leash when we were at the beach-and no one seemed to care, The next time our kids camped at this same campground two weeks later-the loose dogs were even worse-so we were glad we didn't go that time. This had a lot to do with our cancellation of our last reservation-we did not want our dog to be bothered by these loose dogs and have a potential dog fight with her tied up! PLEASE help by making this rule a rule that Must be followed!!

overall good experience, just wish there was at least power hookups, though. Very clean, quiet and peaceful little getaway.
