Great spot to relax
24 ft Class C
Great spot. We enjoyed a fire last night and it was so nice to have the dogs offleash which you can’t do in formal campgrounds. Cory was very welcoming. I’m sure I will be back :)

We picked this spot originally due to it location to the ferry terminal. Wish we could have stayed longer. Beautiful spot, nice and flat, lots of rabbits around the property. Recommend the Rocking horse pub (English pub) great food.

Easy in. Easy out. Easy ferry access. 30amp plug-in plus water a nice perk as you're going through. The 8 acres chock full of bunnies was fun to walk and take in the sky, birds and trees.
