It was about a 15 minute walk from our site to the dog beach which is past the human beach.

Our bay looped around a playground, which I suppose would be really nice for families with kids. There was also free firewood.

No spectacular views, nothing unusually good or bad. I personally would return, especially because of the beach options, but I'm not sure any site in particular is better than any other.
