Sandy Shore Recreation Area — Attraction in Lake Township

Stopped by to camp one night at Sandy Shore. I enjoyed the lake view, as there was a beautiful sunset reflected in the lake that day, and the night-view of little gleaming lights scattered across the edge of the lake was very pretty. There was a strong wind at night and it was very cold, especially in the early morning (as is to be expected in spring weather), but the fresh air was invigorating and the sounds of the lake and the birds were really nice. The ground was quite level and not too bumpy, which made it nice for sleeping in a tent with minimal mattresses. The vault toilet facility was clean and didn’t smell, so that was good. Overall I enjoyed my stay, and definitely recommend the tent sites closest to the edge of the lake for...

We camped 2 nights in tent site 2E. Plenty of space and nice flat ground. We weren't sure if the fire pit would have a grate over it for cooking. It did so that was nice! There were electrical outlets too if you need to plug something in. The lake was awesome and clean. Everyone else camping was very quiet and polite. The bathrooms and showers were very clean and not crowded. It looks like they had a couple kayaks and paddle boards for rent. The one con would be the bug presence, especially at night, but obviously being outside by a lake there's not much you can...

We have been coming here for 25 years. Every year it gets worse and worse as far as the locals hogging every inch of the place. This year we can't even swim in front of our camper because there is NO room for us. The park staff let the locals park in the empty camping spots and use them.... without paying. Then when people who actually rented the sit come, there is no room for them. It used to be our favorite place, now we don't even know if we will come back again. The locals totally ruin it for people trying to enjoy camping and the park staff...
