This National Forest campground charges $16 per night and provides electric and water hookups for RVs in loops C and D.

Hiking trails connect to Blue Springs, where campers can swim in clear, cool water.
Sites span 50 to 100 feet apart across open terrain near the lake. Bath facilities receive regular maintenance, though cleanliness levels vary. The campground allows pets and campfires, making it accessible for camping areas outside Wing within an hour's drive of Destin. RV campers find adequate hookup infrastructure, while tent campers benefit from the proximity to fishing and swimming opportunities.
