The park is located on Route 157, 18 miles southwest of Albany.
The teenage girl working the entrance booth was extremely rude. We’ve been visiting the beach for years and never had an issue before today. The parking lot was full. We asked if we could wait until someone left. I’ve done this many times in this past! The teenager refused to let me and my children wait. She was rolling her eyes. Extremely rude and entitled. Disrespectful. You name it!
Very nice park with a beach, trails and updated bathrooms. We did not have any of the noise problems. We stayed in loop A. 131-139 are somewhat private, but on the small side. #15, 37 and 39 are large. 23 and 25 are close to the beach and nice. That is just a few to get you going!
This is a nice little campground near by, but unfortunately they got rid of their park police and no longer enforce quiet hours. If you like to hear rap music, partying and profanity until 1:00 in the morning while you lie awake in your tent because you have no cell service and you know if you get up and leave to report them that you will wake your kids who are somehow able to sleep through all the noise, then this is the campground for you. If that sounds unpleasant to you, than I’d steer clear and take a further ride to a campground that is more family friendly.
This park is very close to Thatcher State Park. The bathrooms are clean but could be a little closer to the beach area, you have to walk a short distance to it but it's manageable. The car fee to enter is $7 if you just want to use the beach and use the trails. Visitors must leave by 10pm. If you're camping you have to pay a little bit more. The camping areas have grills, so that's nice and convenient. This is a family-friendly place & your furry friends are always welcome! This is a RitaRannts recommendation location definitely go check it out and I'll see you guys there!
