About West Wall Campground
Natural Features and SceneryWest Wall Campground is a very small, primitive camping area on Middle Bass Island in western Lake Erie, adjacent to the state park marina.[3][5] The setting is low, open lakeshore grass and scrub with scattered trees rather than deep forest, and most sites are in an exposed, breezy area near the harbor rather than tucked into woods.[3][5][6] Campers highlight the sense of isolation, big skies, and sunrises/sunsets over Lake Erie, with water views or quick access to the shoreline and marina, plus distant views of nearby South Bass/Put‑in‑Bay across the water.[5][6] Being on a small island, nights are typically quiet except for waves, wind, and occasional boat or harbor noise.[5][6]

Good to know
Common complaints• Very primitive facilities: Campers note that the state park campground has only a latrine at the campsite area and that showers/flush toilets are a walk away at the marina, with no electricity or potable water at the sites themselves.[3][5]
• Isolation and limited services: Reviews describe the campground as small and isolated on a quiet island with far fewer amenities and nightlife than nearby Put‑in‑Bay, which can feel too limited for visitors expecting more activity or restaurant options.[5]
• Wind and exposure: Being on an open Lake Erie island near the marina means exposure to wind and weather, which some campers find challenging, especially in marginal conditions; shade can be limited at sites.[5][6]
• Access complexity: Because you must use a ferry or private boat and then carry gear to the primitive sites with no RV access, some reviewers frame the logistics as a downside compared to drive‑in mainland campgrounds.[3][5]
Due to the small number of online reviews mentioning West Wall specifically, complaints are general to the state‑park camping rather than this named section alone.
