Great time together with kids, with educational opportunities, fun and experience with animals

The first night I was on the Bayside, which is usually pleasant. This time my neighbors were very loud. I was in C47 (I think?), and the people in C48 and also other neighbors on the other side of the loop were blasting music until 2:30 am. They knew what they were doing, too, because they started the music at 9:45pm, just before quiet hours begin. The people on the other side of the loop were also very loud talkers, one of those families where everyone talks at once and no sentence seems to follow the last one. So at some point the other neighbors turned their music up higher to drown out the others. Anyway, music lasted until 2:30 am. It was loud enough to wake the dead so I'm not sure what the campground hosts were thinking. The same people who were loud also used my site to walk right through to theirs, even though it wasn't the fastest way. Just all around rude. The next morning there was a guy letting his dog run around without a leash and run around me while I was filling my water jug. I don't freaking care if it's "just being friendly," I care more about not disturbing horses that could stampede or kick someone. Dog people suck. They always think they can bend the rules for their dog and take up more space than what's allotted to them. The second night I was on the Oceanside and everything was fine. People always behave better on the Oceanside. The showers at the South Beach are broken btw.

We had the best time! The kids saw horseshoe crabs, and collected like a thousand shells and we saw the horses 2-3 times every day. The visitors center was fun and the trails and beaches werent too crowded. We will definitely come back one day!
The only note I would make which I'm sure people that camp regularly expect, but there are SO MANY TICS. I found 4 in the car on the way home. Wear all the OFF spray and make sure to protect yourself from tics. Also, don't google how long they live without food.... just dont.

Breath taking and just watch out for the horses you are in their domain.

Multiple up close encounters with wildlife, including Turkey deer and of course horses. It was very safe and easy to go anywhere on the bicycle.

Great Place!

It is a great place to visit. I am disappointed that they are now allowing campers to park on the grass. This will ruin the park.
