We really wanna be transparent in writing this review to help both the employees doing their job and the campers. Pros: Great location and access to the beach, true sand dunes, uh-mazing views (especially at sunset), close to the Cabot Trail. The campsite has an all-around good and fun vibe! :-) Cons: It was overall pretty messy in regards of taking care of the infrastructures. We often entered the bathrooms/showers to find to no toilet paper whatsoever, and in a chaotic shape. We observed very little to no maintenance of the campsite unfortunately. We asked for wood once and there was none available (!). We also thought that paying up to 65$ for a night was a bit overpriced (we camped in tents with service), and even more so in the context of poor maintenance/infrastructure. We also observed a lack of signage to indicate anything really (including dishes and drinkable water). Doing dishes is by-the-way a pretty dubious experience in this campground. Overall, we do not recommend this campground for a long stay, although the beach and people at the campsite made it ultimately bearable.

Wonder why there’s no pictures of the facilities on this Web Site? Well that’s because you might as well say there’s none because they are so…. Gross no one would want to use them. We stayed 2 Days & all we could do is carefully brush our teeth & pee standing up. So filthy dirty it turned my stomach just to go into the building. The dish washing station might as well be abandoned. This place must have not had any updates since the 90’s. I have no doubts it must of been a great place back in the day but today it should be shut down by the board of health due to its uncleanliness.

We camped on a cold rainy weekend in May. We froze in our tent, so we rented a beautiful trailer they had. While we packed up our tent and stuff, they realized there was an issue with the hot water in the trailer, so they very generously put us in another much nicer unit. They were extremely helpful the whole time and always friendly and knowledgeable. The park is beautiful and the views are stunning.

The camp sites are pretty tight together and not overly private. As far as location is concerned, it really can't be beat. However, the bathrooms are not well insulated so they're very cold, very dated and somewhat unkempt. The paint is peeling and chipping on the doors and the hot water takes a very long time to heat up. If you are going for the location? 5 stars. If you're going for privacy? 4 stars. If you're going for the bathroom? 3 stars - at best.

The beach is nice but that's it, typical seasonal park with cramped sites. If your rv is 30 or more with slides then go somewhere else. They put in a few new sites but still not much width. Fire pits are close to rvs, no room for tow vehicle to park and the bathrooms are disgusting. And forget about getting your money back because there is a policy in place apparently to stop that process. Good luck.

The staff were very friendly. The beach was absolutely AMAZING. Our site was too small for a 12 foot tent trailer. It was a corner site on the road. We had a view of the trees and all the cars parked along the road. There was an occasional sewer smell. The sites are very close together. The bathrooms were very clean but older. The shower doors were high off the ground. The bathrooms were set up for COVID, the sign indicated one person at a time, campers were not following the protocols and no masks required in the bathrooms. We stayed on a long weekend, the campground was busy. A few sites were very social and loud in the evening. We think we found the dumping station - it was pipe sticking out of the ground. No water hose for rinsing. At least we think that was the dumping station, we did not use it. If you cancel you do not get a refund but the staff are very accommodating with rescheduling.
