Great camping! Bathhouse has potable water, flush toilets, cold showers, inside sinks, an outdoor sink to wash dishes, and plenty of outlets to charge your phone. Phone service is hit or miss, at best 4G with one bar. Campsites are big enough for several tents set among the oaks. The bear box is great for food but I also used it for my whole backpack and as a sort-of staging spot. At night you hear the forest sounds plus the waves crashing on the beach. While I was there the campers were quiet with few kids here. During my walks on the beach I literally walked a couple of hours without seeing anyone. As long as you can handle the 3.5 mile hike with a full load, it's a wonderful campsite.
The most beautiful beach campground I have ever seen. Bring a hammock and a swimsuit! You won’t regret it. After setting up camp, hike about 0.2 miles to get to Stafford beach. Full faculties at this campground including restrooms and a shower. I found these facilities to be quite clean with regards to their locations.
If you hike in to Stafford campground, you will appreciate the accommodations. There electricity and water but you MUST filter the water for drinking/cooking. There is no hot water but it is actually ok and refreshing after a long day of hiking. The best place to view the wild horses is just down the access road. The beach is awesome and peaceful. No crowds here probably because it is such an effort to get and stay here. All the campsites are nicely located with tree cover, fire rings and a choice of tent locations. Firewood can be hard to come by so be prepared to scavenge further from camp.
Bring your bug spray on this camping trip, check yourselves for ticks multiple times daily. 3.5 mile walk from the ferry, potable drinking water on site, very clean showers and bathrooms, about a 10 minute walk to the beach. 6-8 mile hike to plum orchard.
We had a wonderful camping experience inspite of rain the first day, trails are marked, saw several horses and lots of armadillos
