Loved the campground. The only issue was that I couldnt get the 30 amp plug to work. I used the 50 amp with adapter.

Made several camping trips to South Sandusky this year. There isnt a bad camping spot. Some are more level than others. The sites that were leveled and full hook up added are great. Maybe they will do more in the future. All the people that work there do a great job and need a Big Thank You from all of us

Our site was very spacious with a good view of the water without being too exposed to winds. We love to ride the bike trails and the campground is not too hilly to ride in it either.

We liked camping at North Sandusky, very nice campsites. We were on a full hookup site but didnt get to enjoy very much due to the rainy weather. We are planning on going again this spring.

We had our yearly get together with the family and friends. We were excited for the newly remodeled area. The parking pads were almost perfectly level and large for the area. We unfortunately were surprised by the off gassing of the sewer system. Sites 55 thru 52 are beautiful for full hook up. But, beware of the septic tank smells. I recommend the newly remodeled area and hope there is a fix to the smells.

What a lovely campground and area. We really enjoyed our campsite, the facilities, and the overall area. Trails were wonderful, we will be back next year!

We like all the campgrounds on Rend Lake, although N Sandusky was noisier than the others at the time of our stay. Campsite 26 is a mostly private site with trees at the back and a fair distance from site 27; site 25 is a bit close.
@WhitneyN21D179 · Camped on Oct 10, 2025 at Campsite #8
This is one of our favorite sites on Pintail. Easy to get back in and get set up.
@AliM0C8B6B3057 · Camped on Oct 9, 2025 at Campsite #9
Wonderful water views with a nice little beach. The only thing that kept me from leaving a 5 review was the lack of shade due to the location of trees. Your camper will be in full sun from about noon until 5:00. Overall, nice spot.

Beautiful location. Camping spots were spaced apart to give us an uncrowded experience. Will definitely camp here again.

I just used PerfectCamp.com to book six consecutive August nights at the most popular campsite in one of the most popular campgrounds in Humboldt Redwoods State Park in California. That is not anything I could have accomplished anywhere else with the ease I did here! Thank you, PerfectCamp! I LOVE this site! You will find me on several other camping sites but the design, format, functionality, and personality of this the best. It’s fresh and clean.
@Wondering - Oregon
Wow! Woke up this morning to a notification that a favorite had opened at Paulina, and when I went to check, it was there. This membership just paid for itself in the first 24 hours I owned it. Couldn't take the site it conflicted with a trip already set, but it truly was there. Thanks Tons.
@CarlaLThompson - Colorado
I just love this site and I tell everyone about it! It's so competitive to secure desired campsites and the alerts really help track when sites free up. The best part of this story is our alert notified a cancellation the next day!!!!!! Just incredible!!!
