The campground offers flush toilets, showers, and a dump station. A youth group camp is available by reservation for organized groups. Four cabins, combining the best features of a cabin and tent, and the Rustic Cabin are available for weekly rental from Memorial Day to the last weekend in September. Two picnic shelters, picnic areas, launch ramp, fishing pier, and small stone beach area are also available. South Bass Island is accessible by ferry from Port Clinton or Catawba Island.
