Apparently you have to pay in advance and if happens that you can make your reservation, you will get no refund! At least a motel will usually give you a time for cancellation and not be charged. Wow, what a way to make money!

A lovely short trail from the parking lot to the beach, across the sand dunes and through the unique beach foliage. Miles of seclusion, wind and ocean...

We parked our car against the wind and created a nice, wind-free spot and spread out our blankets. It would have made a nice spot for... More

We had a great time flying kites, having a fire (100 feet from dune line), riding bikes on the sand, and driving on the sand. At the beginning of July don't expect hot weather but it was pleasant and beautiful!
