I grew up as a kid camping out there. I looked forward to our annual family camping trip out there every year when I was a young boy. I can't wait to start enjoying it again with my family now.

Yeah we now have a pop up camper so im looking forward to going. Used to take the kids out there when they were reel young and we slept in tents. Looking forward to it though.

Is there a good place to tie a boat up or does it have to anchored up? Also, how far is loop A from the water (short walk or a hike)?

There is not a good spot to leave a boat in the water. The shortest route right now is to get on shore at battery Langdon and there is a shortnaturetrail to campground loop A. Here is a picture to help you. You would have to anchor your boat and be away from it. Not a good scenario if you ask me. I wouldn't like being that far away from my boat over night. But it is a short walk/hike on the nature trail.
