Best RV Parks & Resorts near Wing, AL

Beautiful RV park that backs up to the bay and across the street from the beach. All paved sites, Very clean and well groomed full hook up sites. It's a little pricey but location is worth it. And the Icecream shop is next door!

I’m not sure if Geronimo ever visited this roadside RV depot, for which this and the road that you’ll have to navigate down to find this place are named for, but if he did, I am sure he would be happy to be somewhat removed from the crazy busy touristy town of Destin in favor of a plot of land that offers a bit of shade, respite from the sun as well as the noise and commotion of a Spring Break destination. Geronimo RV boasts about being a ‘hidden gem on the emerald coast,’ and if you are looking for a spot to park your oversized RV for the night, all the while being incredibly close to the pristine aqua green ebb and flow of slow moving Gulf coast waves that gently massage flawless white powder sand beaches here in a part of Florida where time seems to have stopped altogether, then Geronimo RV Resort might just be the spot for you.

Located just 3 miles from Destin, this family-friendly, pet-friendly and big-rig-friendly RV hangout is situated in Miramar Beach and just two short blocks to the sugar sand beaches that you came here for. This RV parking lot has just 34 slots, the majority of which are located on the interior and exterior of a decent size simple circular loop, with about 4-5 slots located nearer what looks to be like the main office (although it is not), along with a few slots placed in front of this same building that you’ll easily be able to spot as you drive in. For those wanting to store their RV or boat, there is also additional storage space at the front of the property and the southern side. You will discover that the actual main office is located just as you approach the circular loop and it will be immediately on your left as you turn left into the loop with a handful of places to park and check-in.

Amenities: level concrete large RV parking pads with patio, tree-shaded main RV parking loop, full hook-ups (30 / 50 electric amp, water (40-55 PSI) and sewage), free WiFI and Cable TV (70+ channels), 24 / 7 spartan clean bathrooms and showers, potable water and dump station, large recreation area for throwing the frisbee or taking the puppy for a walk, coin-operated laundr-O-mat as well as storage lots for boats, RVs and other vehicles.

Driving Directions: From Emerald Coast Pkwy: Turn onto Old Hwy 98, stoplight across from Silver Sands Premium Outlet and Chic-fil-A (Scenic Gulf Dr.). Follow Old 98 for approximately half a mile, and you will see Embassy Suites on your right. Turn right onto S. Geronimo St. Drive a few hundred feet and arrive at Geronimo RV Park on your left. Or from Hwy 98 turn on to S. Geronimo St, head South a quarter mile, then turn on to Arnett Lane where our sign is located.

Insider’s Tips: (1) One irritating element about Geronimo is that they will only allow you an RV+ another vehicle, but if you come packing a golf cart, motorcycle or even a boat, then they will charge you for two vehicles and make you park this in another spot (and charge you nightly for it), so think twice before you bring your entire caravan to this place; (2) For my tent-pitching bredren, there is ‘no luck at the Inn here’ as this is only an RV parking site, so head on over to nearby Henderson Beach State Park if you want to find a simply fantastic camping spot right near the Gulf; and (3) When you get tired of trying to fix a meal with the leftovers in your onboard mini-fridge and want to try out some local fare I HIGHLY recommend nearby Brotula’s for simply fantastic Dungeness, King and Snow Crab that you can wash it down with a local micro-brew or stunning glass of Whitehaven Sauvignon Blanc.

Happy Camping!

 Mid-Bay Shores, Maxwell/Gunter’s military Florida resort was formerly called Lake Pippin, the new name, Mid-Bay Shores, was chosen to better reflect the beautiful white sandy shores of Choctawatchee Bay that the resort faces. The gated entrance is just before the Choctawatchee Mid- Bay Bridge, a toll bridge that connects Niceville and Destin. 28 RV spaces with full hook-ups– water, electrical and sewer, and six overflow sites with just water and electrical hook-ups. Visitors have access to barbecue grills and picnic tables next to their facility. There is also a new bathhouse with laundry facilities.

Topsail is more like a rv resort. It is a state park & surprisingly it has sewer hookups. We come down here at least once a year. And have never had any complaints. There is no bad camping spot.

The campground is within walking to the beach with a beautiful walkway full of trees. The bathrooms are clean. The camp site has a picnic table and a fire ring. Some sites have electricity and RV hookup.

Our first trip to destin we stayed at geronimo RV resort.    THey were very accommodating  including giving us options if we had a new RV delivered and had to swap coaches.   There isnt a fenced dog area, which is the only downside, but there is a big field and lots of areas to walk the dogs.  The Wifi was bullet fast and I could actually work on it.   The folks working there were friendly as can be and made the trip a joy.

This state park is awesome, full hook-ups, cable tv, pool, and the private beach is amazing. They have a tram to the beach. we road our bikes. Sites are very spacious and lots of trees. Best sites are in the 100 block. but you won't be disappointed with any of them. Not many state parks has full hook ups so you have to book early as it fills up fast.

Full hook up, gated, pool, super staff. Pets allowed

10/10

Beautiful views, private beach, private pier and friendly staff! Campsites are full hook up but are tight squeeze with a +40ft camper. We loved our stay here either way! Beautiful beaches!

Nice small camp ground only about 25 sites most are directly on the lake.... full hook ups and has a bathhouse and a laundry room. There’s a playground close by and some walking trails....we enjoy it and will go back.

I wasn’t able to find out much information about this 25-site campground as the owner was not in the office when we visited. It is located not far from Interstate 10, but I would not recommend trying to find it after dark. 

The campground is on a dirt road and there were puddles from recent rain, although it was not difficult to navigate in our van. It did appear that some of the“campers” were long term residents. 

The website indicates there is a pool, but I did not see one. The website also indicates the following information (although I could not confirm it): cash only, pets are ok, 30/50 amp electric plus one FHU site, restrooms/showers/laundry. 

There is a small lake and fishing is available, but no boat launch (lake would be too small for boats). Other than that, there really is nothing to do here.

We love this campground. It has level sites, full hookups, cable television, internet and most sites have a view of the water.

Walking trails, playground and clean facilities are all available.

If you are looking for a simple place to park your RV for the night and don’t mind an environment completely devoid of character and simply want to park on a flat piece of concrete and aren’t concerned with the Matrix-like ubiquitous pod-style diagonal RV parking slots that look and feel identical to each and everyone besides it, then Hurlburt Field FamCamp might just be for you. Unlike many other ‘erector-set’ RV pastures that have sprung up everywhere recently, here at least there is a designated area that offers up 5-6 different fresh wooded sites for those desiring to ‘pitch a tent.’

While there are a number of other nearby campgrounds (but to be fair, this is less a campground and more accurately, an RV parking lot), there exists a number of other alternatives that will place you much closer to nature and the Gulf of Mexico. But if that’s not of particular concern to you, and you don’t mind planting yourself overnight (or for a few days) on a slice of concrete pavement albeit on a first-come, first-served basis in the middle of absolutely nowhere, then you could certainly do worse than Hurlburt Field FamCamp. Here, there’s some 48 RV sites with full hook-ups (30 / 50 amp electric, water and sewage) along with 10 or so primitive campsites. 

There’s both a bathhouse and laundry facilities site onsite and each site has its own picnic table along with intermittent WiFi access. Registration only occurs once on-site, which from a business standpoint makes absolutely no sense to me – I mean why would I drive completely out of the way to this particular spot if I didn’t know that there was a spot that could be provided? This pretty much guarantees that whatever spot you do find here at pet-friendly Hurlburt Field FamCamp is ’bottom of the barrel’ and a ‘last resort’ when you can’t find anything else better … or cheaper. And I have to admit, for a few bucks more, you can CERTAINLY find better than this nearby that puts you directly on the Gulf of Mexico. 

So that likely helps us arrive to the most obvious consideration – if you are here for whatever reason – to be closely connected to those within the nearby Air Force Base, then great, you’ve not only found your location, but likely, you’ve found your peeps who are here for the same reason. But if you are simply vacationing and looking for an amazing spot to ‘call home’ for the night, then you should mosey on and look for another spot (and around here, there are SO MANY to choose from). But if you’re not, and simply looking for a spot that provides convenience, then you have it. 

Insider’s tips? (1) Hurlburt, at best, is a quick and easy layover, but make no mistake about it, this is not a destination. The good news is, you don’t have to go much further in any direction to find many more suitable and attractive options; (2) There is zero privacy here wherein the circular RV parking lot is wide open, therefore you will have complete visibility to your neighbors, apart from the sliver of space that exists between each parked RV, so bear that in mind and bring hanging sheets or other means to create your own privacy if this is important to you; (3) Unless there is a good reason why you need to stay here, I would highly recommend actually making some amazing memories by checking out one of the campgrounds like The Hideaway Retreat nearer the beach, which offers not only fantastic views of and access to the Gulf, but additionally, much more space as well as an array of amenities; and (4) When you get to the bottom of your onboard fridge and / or just want to try out some good local fare, I highly recommend The Shack for some pretty amazing locally caught seafood. You’ll want to get here early though, especially on the weekends, as the place fills up fast and there’s always a long line out the door. 

Happy Camping!
