Campground Info
Campsite features: electric hookups, bathhouse with showers and flush toilets - so civlized!
Note: Winds are generally light and temperatures warm, plus we're in a sheltered cove, so it is ideal for human-powered cruisers, capsize testing and maiden voyages.
Permits & fees: $3 daily launch fee if you're not renting a campsite
Events: Saturday evening potluck, probably at campsite #10 or 11
