Union West historically has been first come first served and it was nearly impossible to get a site without going up very early in the week. It is nice to see it is now reservable so you know ahead of time if you'll be able to secure a site. As always it was nicely maintained and super clean and quiet.

Our site was spacious and a walk on to the water. We loved everything about this spot, even on a hot day it was very shaded. We originally had site #8 but a mess up occurred with our reservation and we had #16. I will definitely be coming back to this location.
