Shore Forest Campground
Rating: ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐
This was our first time a Shore Forest and we'll definitely be returning. The weekend we went there was trick or treat weekend. All the kids had a blast as we did as well. We had great sites and the seasonal folks that we spoke with were great. We're definitely going to plan a trip back when we can enjoy everything else they have to offer. Very excited. Thank you!!!!
