Pros- Clean, quiet, incredible beach set up with a really nice playground. Decent spots, although tight most were pretty nice. Really nice staff. Cons- Lack of activities in general. Wouldn't be so bad but there are no bike rentals, no putt putt etc. There are paddle boats to rent but you have to be 18. The store leaves a lot to be desired, not a great selection. No pizza or anything like that.... Pros- Clean, quiet, incredible beach set up with a really nice playground. Decent spots, although tight most were pretty nice. Really nice staff.

I'd go back for sure and by then I'd expect them to step up the amenities a bit.

It’s almost as if management didn’t really think through the big picture for all RVers, not just their seasonal campers.

Couple of days camping with extended family. Huge back in sites in the area we were at. The water hookup had good pressure but the water smelled like well water. All other amenities for the campers were excellent and well thought-out. The beach was nice, clean and during our time very open. The facilities were laid out well and it is obvious that some careful planning had gone into the setup there... Couple of days camping with extended family. Huge back in sites in the area we were at.

I would recommend for anyone looking for a nice place to camp with minimum hassle and lots to do.

I really enjoy this campground the beach area is really nice and the golf cart rides down the trails are great. The playground is really great for the kids. The store is nice and has reasonable prices. The only downside are the sites, they are pea gravel and are not very long so when the campground is full parking a trailer can be difficult.

However we found the water, wifi, and laundry to be a bit problematic. The campground is on well water with iron in the water. We had to recharge our water softener every week as opposed to the month it normally lasts. We had heavy staining in our shower and toilet. And if we went longer than a week without recharging the water softener, the water stunk like eggs and decay. The wifi is good when it works. The wifi boxes on the lots are unsecured so people open the boxes, smash or pinch the fiber cable on accident, and then the wifi is out. We tried using the laundry facility on site once. Unfortunately the machines are HE front load which have to be cleaned frequently (theirs aren't) or they grow mold/sludge in the seal (theirs did). So we had to take all laundry into town for the duration of our stay. Nice campground for weekenders who don't hookup to water. Not good for long term stays.

I absolutely LOVE this campground. The owners are very nice and keep the place clean. It's mainly a place for seasonal campers but, they do have a few spots for campers. The showers/bathrooms are kept clean. They have a nice size play ground for the kiddo's with lots to play on. The residents are also friendly.

The residents are also friendly. I highly recommend this place but, just don't take our lot that we use. It's only 2 separate weeks a year. (LOL) Oh, and if you have a problem/issue? Just go to one of the owners and they will do there best to help you. South Shore is owned and operated by family...... Sincerely, The Austins!
