Rock Island is an amazing gem in our state. It takes some extra work and planning to get to, but the reward is worth it. 

We stayed at backpacking site B, which is a little over a mile from the ferry dock. This is where the flush toilets and water are, so prepare for your journey in

We passed the campground which seemed nice. There were several pit toilets and it’s right next to the beach. 

Site B was amazing and one of my favorite sites I’ve stayed at. It was very private, large, and had some beautiful views. We thought site A would be close, but we couldn’t see or hear them. 

The island gets very windy and cold at night. Be prepared and bring extra layers! On the plus side, bugs were very very minimal. 

The ferrys are first come first serve. If you want to get on the first ferry, get down there early.
