The pros:
This campground is in a fabulous location! We were able to ride our bikes to the MV ferry (about 5.24 miles, not bad on a bike).
When we showed up the woman in the store was very helpful. She checked us in, gave us maps and ticket info about the MV ferry. They sell tickets right there, which is very helpful and saved us a lot of time at the dock.
The campground was very clean and there are bathrooms with showers that are cleaned regularly. The showers are actually hot and we didn't have to wait long for a shower to become available.
The cons:
The campsite is set up kind of weird. Campers and tents are all mixed in with each other and some of the sites are pretty close together. We were fortunate enough to get a site that was somewhat by itself.
Quiet hours are from 10pm-8am and fires need to be out at midnight. It was kind of nice that we could keep the fire until midnight but we couldn't really talk because of quite hours so we just went to bed shortly after 10. I think it would make more sense for them to section the campground into two sections: family and adult.
Staff was friendly and helpful but for some reason people staying there were not very nice (not the campground's fault, just a statement). No one smiles at you and you say hi as you walk by and they look at you like you're crazy. Now I'm from RI so it's not like this place is very far removed from home for me. Why the attitude?
All in all, it is a good campground and I would return.
