It was a nice quite park with very heavy vegetation. It was a challenge maneuvering our 40' motorhome through the narrow roads in the campground.

Once set-up, we enjoyed walking through the park.

It looked like an ideal location to film a jungle movie. You felt like Tarzan could come swinging through the trees any minute.

The beach was lovely. However it was a long way from the campsite and the weather was a bit cool for laying out on the sand. So we only made one visit to walk in the sand along the water's edge.

We enjoyed our visit except for one annoying problem that developed. I normally spray an insect spray around our wheels, leveling jacks and hoses - anything that touches the ground. For some reason I did not do so when we first arrived. After a few days we started seeing large black ants inside the RV. I went out and sprayed, but it was too late. We had been invaded by carpenter ants. I ended up sparaying boric acid in various corners and cracks and putting out sticky paper traps. Nothing worked. We kept seeing the ants. We knew they had established a colony somewhere. It was eventually found by the folks doing the redecorating when they took down the cornice over the driver's seat. They managed to carry the majority of the ants in the colony outside and kill most of th rest. It took a few days before we stopped seeing the remaining survivors. You can bet I am more diligent about spraying the insecticide now when we move to a new location.
