My only complaint would be that you need to change your reservation policy to state that if an individual does not check into their reserved site within 24 hours of first day reservation without calling or registering, then they should forfeit their site. There have been way too many times this and last year where I would be staying on the island and at least 1/3 of the sites would be empty because of no shows who did not bother to cancel. There is no place I know of, including hotels and other campsites that would allow this to continue. Almost all the places I go camping have a 24 hour check-in policy. If you don't check in within 24 hours you forfeit your site and money. Otherwise everything at the park is wonderful. Not really sure I understand why you are cutting the grass though. I always hear about the limited food supply for the horses on the island and yet I see that you guys are now mowing the lawn at the campsites. I think this is not a good thing for the horses and is a waste of tax payer money. Spraying for ticks and mosquitos is a different thing altogether. I am glad to see you are now spraying to protect the children, dogs and other animals from tick borne diseases. Thanks in advance for your attention to this review. Overall, any day on the island is a GOOD DAY!

So beautiful in November. I hear the summer is a misery of mosquitoes. Not so in the autumn. No crowds; I had the beautiful trails to myself. The horses were wandering in and out of camp all week. Never got to see a fox. The people at the visitor center were very friendly and helpful, especially Kyle. I want to come back next year : )

Wonderful time on both bay- and ocean-side sites. Rangers very helpful

Loved this spot! Could actually see the water from our pop top. Huge space, level, lots of level sand for a screen room if needed. Saw a beautiful newly born foal when the wild horses came around. Amazing. (Don’t feed the horses!)

it is an excellent campground. spaces are nicely spread out. the blowing sand might require shoveling for larger campers. most sites are plenty big to fit a large camper and truck. we had nice weather this year and the beach was almost full (not crouded), which was nice.

wonderful site close to beach hidden behind sand dunes and had many horses pass by. Had some strikes fishing using bloodworms with added nightcrawlers. Extra wood was put under picnic table for others to use. Thank you!
