We stayed at Hoffmaster State Park Campgroung, and I have to say we were very impressed. The Campground was very clean & quiet. There is an alcohol restriction from April 15 - Labor day, which likely helped with the quiet, family atmosphere. The bathrooms were clean, nicely tiled and well kept.

For years my kids and I have enjoyed the park. They have marked trails to walk, clean rest rooms, clean beach and lots and lots of nature around you.

The nature center was the best for the kids - interactive displays, lots to see and do. The trails through the woods open up to the long steps up the dunes and a great view of the beach and lake!
