Green meadow with several parking spaces close together. There are also thousands of mosquitoes. It is very loud until late at night due to the many long-term campers. Anyone who can should stay away.

Big Island was nice, 15 minute drive. But I would never go back to this particular campground. The operators seemed friendly enough but when your first reaction is to scream at a 3-year old girl to get off the playground equipment, instead of a “Hi honey you can’t be on that right now. ” You have to question their mental health. I could *maybe* understand that reaction if one of the kids had the potential to get hurt, but this wasn’t it. No one needs to talk to children like that, especially at a so-called family campground. You’re clearly in the wrong business.
Oh and the bugs. I joked all summer it felt like there were a lot fewer mosquitoes around this year. That’s because they’re all at this campground. We were literally eaten alive! Even with bug spray. It’s likely because of all the stagnant water along the shore but the only relief we had onsite was huddled around the campfire or hiding indoors. Next time we’ll book earlier and spend a few extra dollars to stay at one of the nearby provincial campgrounds. This one is a major pass.

Had a great time at Cranberry Campsite. People were fantastic. We couldn't get the wifi in our location but they did try hard to get working.
Mosquitos are really bad but you are around a lot of water and marsh.
Laundry facilities were clean and machines worked great! Very clean place.
It was a fantastic time with great people around us and the staff were friendly and very accommodating.

The trailer sites are big and level. Well laid out campground. Facilities were clean. Staff were very pleasant and helpful. We had a great stay. Nice to be near the water.

Such a beautiful campground. We arrived late and the owner was kind enough to wait for us, we had a tenting spot which was so beautiful with a great ocean view and right on top of all the fun things for the kids which was perfect. We got to see lots of fireflies and shooting stars when it got dark it was so dreamy. The mosquitoes and horse flies are definitely bad but that’s the only downfall. Showers and bathrooms are well maintained and seem pretty up to date. Such a great campground, would 100% recommend
