This is a review of the cabin accommodations, and a bit about the park. We stayed in cabin site 21.
We came as a friend group with 4 families with young children (ages 2-6). We are low-maintenance campers and were very pleased with the cabins. A fridge, small stove, and double-basin sink were very welcome, as were toilet facilities (they provided 3 rolls of TP, but bring a stool for the shorties). Windows had screens and shutters, no curtains. Outlets in each room. Generous wall hooks & hangers in each room. The screened in porch with Adirondack chairs was roomy and a good place to be surrounded by woods while blocking out mosquitoes. Did not use the fireplace, but it looked great. Table and chairs/benches were solid, heavy, and probably milled and assembled on-site 70 years ago, still going strong. The listing says 3 bedrooms, but it’s really two bedrooms, and two twin beds in main living space. One bedroom with a full mattress that was pretty uncomfortable, a dresser, and large shelf. Other bedroom had 2 twin beds with about a foot of space between them and a dresser. (Other friends’ cabins had bunks.) The twin mattresses were more comfortable, but all plastic-coated of course. (Do bring sheets and other linens. If you have the packing space, mattress pads would be a big upgrade.) Gorgeous gigantic oak at the site. Fire pit with a grill, and a separate standing grill. Other key items to bring if you come in July: a fan for the heat, clothesline/pins, trash bags, bug spray, white noise (or ear plugs) if you’re there over Independence Day. Lots of fireworks going off multiple nights!
Our brief interactions with the park staff were very nice. Shower facilities were a 7-min walk away, with your typical camp showers, no complaints. Playground was great, just unshaded, so very hot. Camp store has reasonable prices (!), a small sharing library, a craft room for kids for rainy days that was terrific, and firewood for purchase. Frog pond was nice, but we discovered it was too long of a walk for our kiddos from the cabin, had to drive to a closer trail head another day. Saw frogs! On damp days mosquitoes were THICK. So were fireflies every night, magical for the kids.
Beach: pebbly, but they had also hauled in sand. It does hurt your feet walking out, but gives way to Sandy bottom further out. Terrific place to find pretty rocks. Water was chilly a couple days, warmer on the hottest days in the afternoon. Nice pier. We hit the beach the night of the Fourth and saw fireworks going off over say 10 different places south of us down the shore. Kids loved it, booms not so loud.
We would happily return another year :)
