Some mention
"Visitors consistently praise the park's dramatic coastal scenery, wide sandy beaches, lighthouse viewpoints, well-maintained restrooms/showers, and strong interpretive offerings (Lewis & Clark Interpretive Center). The main campground loops receive high marks for site size, layout and proximity to the beach. Common negatives include variable/windy weather, crowded sunny summer weekends, poor cell service, and the more exposed primitive Lake O'Neil sites."
