Had a field biologist friend recommend this as a central camping spot for birding in the panhandle. It is amazing the variety of species you will see/hear if you come in the spring or autumn (I opted for spring). Loons, cuckoos and more types of gull than you can shake a stick at.

The campground itself is quite modern, with hook ups and full bathrooms. It is central to many trails near the wetlands. After you break camp be prepared to spend an hour getting sand out of your gear, especially if it is windy.

As with just about all campgrounds I have been to in Florida, be alert for gators. There are frequent signs warning you not to go into the water.
