We stayed in July of this year. I had reserved another camp ground but I came across Ocean View and knew this was where we needed to stay. And I was right had a blast and hope to stay there again in 25 !!!!!

We had the best sleep. Mattress in the dollhouse cabin was the most comfortable bed I've ever slept on. Thank you for wonderful accommodations. Coffee offered in the office was really good as well. We enjoyed the pool too.

Our family was pleasantly surprised by how well kept the cabin we rented cottage was. We expected a "rustic" at best cottage and wow, we were wrong. It was a lovely 2 bedroom with a queen bed and two twin beds. A full kitchen and dining space along with a comfortable living room area. The screen room was a great hit as well. Having your own bathroom with large shower is a treat while "camping". The 3 women and 1 man we encountered as employees could not have been any more kind and helpful. We met some really nice families while visiting. The pool is a nice bonus. It goes without saying, we will return. Super close to beaches too!

I did not like this place at all. I stayed in a tent site for only one night (thank goodness or I would’ve left early). The tent sites were so close together it was basically like one big group site. For perspective, most other tent sites I’ve stayed at could’ve fit three of their sites into one normal one. Luckily I was the only one there so it wasn’t a big issue, but if I weren’t the only tent camper there it would’ve been super awkward. The biggest problem, though, was the bathrooms. They were absolutely atrocious. I’m not convinced they’re ever cleaned at all… mold all over the tile and shower curtain, filth everywhere. It gave me the willies. And I camp a lot so I’m not new to showering at campgrounds or roughing it.. but it was a really expensive site, too, ($40-something) comparing to any other campground I stay at. Zero clue what the high price is for. Definitely don’t recommend staying here. 🤢 I have two stars because I showed up after dark and they accommodated me.

The view from our cabin is wonderful.
