The campsites are too close to each other. Very noisy. There was loud music and people talking and walking around up to midnight. Not many trees. My campsite was extremely small.
Karen Schram
Beautiful campground. However not for the weekend warriors. Friendly older crowd. Family oriented.

It's a great place to camp. We've been there for 12 years. Great view of Lake Erie and a short walk to the beach. Lots of amazing folks camp there... unfortunately due to Covid 19... this season will be shorter with no activities. Hope next year things will be better... but if you can, check it out... it's worth the Drive!!

Very nice spot! I would totally go back, but wish there was a safer way to get down to the beach.
