We haven't been in many years, but we have fond memories of camping here early in our marriage.  Leon spent many summers here as a child.  Tends to get crowded & rowdy in the peak season, but the off-season experience is great. It's a nice little holdout for nature in the middle of a very busy region.  Great beach frontage.
