Then finish your perfect day with a beautiful sunset over the bay. Max pull thru: 70 feet. Your hosts: Joel and Lydia Fodor.

Visitors may not be permitted on the campground if there is not capacity to accommodate them. There is a max of 6 people per RV site/ 4 per tent site, including visitors.
WINTER BEACH ACCESS - During Winter Months (November through March), we have to close our beach access. This is due to very high tides that bring large logs and other debris that change our coast line every year. We want to make sure our guests stay safe. Thank you for understanding.

Spent the weekend here by myself for a little clamming. While the stay was cut a bit short and I was forced to leave early, thats was not their fault and I cant take stars away for that. The camp is well kept and clean. The staff and the hosts are some of the best ive come across, and the claiming was successful. I will surely be visiting again and ill be letting my friends know they should stay here as well

This campground was great! Wanted to get away for a night and this was the place to do that. Our cabin was clean and accommodating. The patio is such a nice touch. The firepit added a true camping vibe. We can't wait to go back . There are some woods behind the campground plus a staircase down to a beach. Great for exploring. The staff there was super sweet.

Friends and I reserved a deluxe cabin with sofa bed. When we arrived we were given DK07 which had no sofa bed but when we talked to the employee at the store they did everything they can and switched us to DK06 cabin with sofa bed. Huge difference and my friends and I really enjoyed our stay. Everything was clean, lots of kitchen utensils for us to use, private beach access and we were able to order pizza and get it delivered to our cabin. We enjoyed our stay and staff was accommodating and welcoming. Well worth the drive and stay. Best cabin I’ve been to

This is hands down the best KOA we’ve been to. The Saturday activities for kids were amazing, the staff had most of the kids’ names down in the first hour, they had most adults’ campsites numbers memorized too! We felt like we were at camp too! The place is small enough to feel ok about the kids running around. The staff is mindful of kid behaviors and tamp down any who get too rowdy, but they do it in such a nice way. It was a fantastic experience and we will be back! The only improvement we could come up with was the playground, which the kids felt was lacking, but they are still excited to return next summer!

One of the best locations to relax and unwind! We stayed in their deluxe cabin, which was a bit pricey, but totally worth it—especially during the summer. The cabin can comfortably sleep six people with a queen bed, bunk bed, and a sofa bed. The bunk beds are perfect for kids or teens; adults can use them too, though they’re a bit small. The property is clean, well maintained, and has private beach access. The on-site store is well-stocked with almost everything you might need. What truly stood out was the amazing service—every staff member was attentive and friendly. They also host occasional activities, which adds to the fun. A couple of minor drawbacks: the roads inside the property are mostly gravel or pebbles, so my child couldn’t ride her scooter. Also, the electric stove in the cabin isn’t very powerful, so cooking takes a bit longer. But honestly, these are small things compared to the overall experience. Highly recommend for a peaceful getaway
