Sheridan Bay Park operates as a municipal campground in Dunkirk, providing direct access to Lake Erie's shoreline. The facility accommodates both RVs and tent campers with electric and water hookups, plus essential amenities including restrooms, showers, and a dump station. Rough access roads lead into the open terrain near the lake.
Recent management changes have brought improved maintenance and cleanup efforts to the grounds. Campers can launch kayaks, boats, and fish directly from the lake, though summer months bring increased activity and crowding. The campground primarily operates on seasonal reservations, with limited availability for short-term camping outside of select holiday weekends. Fire pits and picnic tables are provided at sites.
Description
Where cool lake breezes, spectacular sunsets and close proximity to County-wide events, places of interest, great food, from both local restaurants and a variety of farm-fresh produce stands make it “the place” to stay this summer! The Park will be open from May 27, 2021 (Memorial Day weekend) through September 6, 2021 (Labor Day). Reservations may be made for nightly, weekly, or even seasonal camping visitors. There is a playground for the kids and an easy-living attitude for the adults. Small boat access to Lake Erie and a pavilion for lakeside parties make your stay one to remember. You might even catch a glimpse of the eagles that nest nearby!
