What can I say about the views. If you are wondering those are three volcanoes you can see, Augistine, Iliamna, and Redoubt. There is no fishing here and if you can find your way down to the beach there is a whole other world. Except traffic for local residents there are usually few people and worth it to find a way down. 

I love this part of Alaska.

We stayed a few days after Memorial Day so thinks we’re still on the quiet side for camping but we were the only ones at this campground! (Halibut just south was full). 
It was perfect for two adults in a Campervan that like privacy. Would not be great for young children as the cliffs could be dangerous. 

Great cliff views, quiet

We stayed one night. We were lucky enough to get one of  the two sites here that have a direct view. We were in site 14 which is great for an RV. Site 13 is great for a tent and is the other site with a great view. There was only one other group here and it was nice and quiet.
