Beautiful campground in the White Oak loop, we were right on the water with easy access for kayaks and canoe. My only complaint was when the new folks on the site next to us let their dog run wild and I know of at least one time they didn't clean up after the dog, they weren't watching her. When we asked the campground attendant to look into it they talked to our friends on the other side of us but not to the folks with the dog. Aggravating when leash requirements aren't enforced.

It was a good time but it rain so we had to come home early.

Really loved the park. I liked how we were close enough to the water to see it. Even was able to fish in the campground.

North Sandusky is our favorite Campground at Rend Lake. We are very frequent campers.

Open but shaded area. Fairly easy to get level.

Wonderful campground with well-spaced sites. Quiet. Lots to do or just sit back and enjoy. Park ranger (Coleman) was extremely friendly and helpful. Can't wait to go again!

Host was very nice and friendly. Nice spot and weather was made better because of the great view of lake.

overall camping experience was great. Might think about installing an ice machine.

The campground was not as nice as usual due to the storm that had came through earlier. They are working hard to clean up all the down trees, although that also means a lot of grass takes a beating as they push the material out of the way. I am sure it will be much better in a few weeks.

Our first weekend stay at North Sandusky COE Campground was very nice. Upon arriving, the lady at the Entry Gate House was very pleasant and helpful. We stated we had visited with other camper friends in the past who had camped there, but never stayed ourselves. Our site was Electric only, which we requested, and seen that were many Full Hookup sites as well. All the sites looked spacious and roomy, which was a super plus for us.Upon signing in she had picked out a campsite for us that was perfect, It had a beautiful view of the lake. She was also helpful in taking the time to answer any questions I had. Overall we had a delightful, peaceful, camping weekend outing and will be returning in the Spring. Another great camping option. Thank you.

Everything is always so nice and relaxing! Only one saying that was very surprising. Was 7:30 in the morning Saturday and the grass cutting crew was there. They got very close to the camper and the tent with people sleeping in the tent.
@DanielR3951934 · Camped on Oct 13, 2024 at Campsite #18

I wanted to thank you for this site and especially for the notifications feature. Thanks to your site and my subscription I was able to book a campsite I've been annoyingly trying to book for 5 years unsuccessfully. So thank you.
@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.
