Pit toilets, calm water, on beach camping.  Come during the week for the most solitude.  Can get busy on the weekend.

Great mid week dispersed camping.

6 mile cove was pretty nice, it had plenty of layout to avoid immediate contact with people. It truly is about 6 miles from the road down the power line road to get there. Pretty washboardy. Jumbled up the pod a little ha. 
There was 3 bathrooms vault style. A huge dumpster that gets maintained. 
It was a Sunday night we stayed and it wasn’t crowded. 3-4 groups of people. 
Beach front, but WATCH FOR ALGAE. green floating stuff in the water. Stay away from it. You’ll thank me later. 

Easy night at 6 mile

Beautiful area

Went to set up camp on a saturday around 10am. It was packed! Day goers were gone by around 5pm. It was nice and peaceful, super pretty views. At night the stars are clearly visible. We had a wind storm during our stay so it was cold and windy. Make sure to bring some warm blankets as it can get cold at night into the early morning.
