My family and others stayed at the Richardson campground at Sandbanks. OMG, the comfort station is 3 km away from the location. The comfort station is in the middle of an RV area that does not require any facilities. The outpost facilities were super smelly and unusable. Because of ticks, we could not let the kids use the bushes. So much of our time was spent driving back and forth to the washrooms. It was such a terrible experience for basic needs. The sites are super small, and there was no clear demarcation, so it felt like people were trespassing. I have been camping every summer for the last 15 years at various provincial parks, and this one takes crown for being the worst one ever. Will never ever return to Sandbanks ever again. I had heard good things about beaches. But, alas, that was a disappointment as well. There was too much algae on the shoreline and hence entering the water was slightly slippery. It did not matter how far in the lake I was, I saw algae on the lake bottom and floating around. Bad Swimming experience.

We had issues booking a site for many years and now my husband and I understand why. This park offers everything a nature lover seeks: hiking, kayaking, swimming and very spacious sites! All facilities are clean but be careful of the poison ivy since it is found on many trails and around camping sites. The beaches are spectacular and we found that most areas are pet friendly. We had no issues with noise and slept soundly. Upon our arrival, we were very happy to see a park restaurant where they served the best hotdogs. I kid you not! My husband had the chicken tenders and he liked them as well. I think everything from their menu would be winners.
