Peaceful campsite, gorgeous sunsets
What a magical, beautiful spot! The beach was easy to access and totally private and secluded. We saw deer, seals, and many birds. The water was chilly, but great for paddleboarding and crystal clear down to the bottom. The tent was spacious and comfortable.
This is not a criticism but more a helpful hint so future campers can be more prepared than we were. The previous reviews made it sound like there was a better-equipped kitchen than what there was - here is what we found at the site:
1. a round grill to put on rocks over the fire,
2. a big cast-iron frying pan,
3. a kettle,
4. one spatula, and
5. two coffee cups.
We made do with aluminum foil and paper towels the first night, and bought paper plates and disposable cutlery for the second. But had we known, we would have brought our camp cooking box to avoid using disposables. If you want to boil water or do more involved cooking, you might bring a pot instead of using the provided kettle because it's a stovetop kettle rather than a campfire kettle (we felt bad getting it all sooty). Or bring a little propane camp stove to heat water.
Overall, we loved our time here and wanted to stay forever! The sunsets were spectacular with the most beautiful light sparkling on the water and through the trees, and our little one spent hours exploring the rocky beach. Shangri-la!
