Already looking forward to seeing them again this October.
No modern comforts
We caught a lot of fish and searched tide pools at low tide and found a ton of shells and sea creatures.
We stayed in cabin 23 and it was great although it was in need of minor repairs. The towel rack fell off and the sink drain became disconnected. I was able to fix both. The cabins allow for electrical hookup which we didn't have and didn't miss. However, our weather was in the 60's and 70's. I am guessing that with no trees to shade any of the cabins, they will be murderously hot in the summer so a generator and portable air conditioner would be great.
We were given a key with the disclaimer that it may not work. It didn't but no worries we kept our valuables in our car. The rangers and volunteers and Ferry service were all very nice and helpful.
Pro fishing tip for those who haven't surf fished. Lookup "drop rig" and rig your pole that way. You can buy a surf rod, sand spike and enough tackle and bait to fish for about $60. It is a ton of fun and well worth it. 30 lb test mono works well.
