I had a poor experience with the park staff there and I won't go back. Private campgrounds actually want you to visit and are happy about it. That was not my experience at Green Point. Others may have had other experiences but the last time I was there they insisted that I stay in a mosquito infested bog while some nice "on the beach" spots sat empty. Staff would give me no reason other than "This is your site... take it or stay someplace else. We'll have no problem selling it to someone else".
No problems, I head over to Bella Vista, or Crystal Cove, or out onto some of the islands that you can walk to when the tide is out, and camp there. I'm not right on Long Beach, but it's just a stones throw away.
I'm sure I hit Green Point on a bad day, but my time off is too valuable to waste. There are lots of great private campgrounds to choose from.
