Sara's Campground is the only place in the continental United States where you can actually camp on the beach. That's right, you can pitch your tent or park your camper right in the sand, anywhere you want. There really aren't set "camping sites"; you just kinda make your own once you're there. Swimming in Lake Erie at this Campground is... More

This is not the type of campground that we typically would camp in. However, from a convenience standpoint to visit the beautiful beaches, you could not ask for a better location. We were able to hop on our bicycles right from the campground and go to the beach. If you are the type of camper who has to only see... More

The family now consists of 4 family units with a total of 8 adults and 10 children, 9 years old and under. We had two pop-ups and two tents. Our... More

The person in the office was very nice and the price was reasonable. However, the sites on the bayside were very small and the parking was awful. We only had a small tent, but by the time we returned in the evening, the parking was a mess and I parked the best I could. One of the resident campers woke... More

Nice park...only downfall is the walk from the office to bayside sites...4 lanes of FAST moving cars! we didn't get to use much besides the showers and fire ring as we were just passing thru but it was a nice place...ate...
