Welcome to Topsail Hill Preserve State Park Topsail Hill is named for its dunes, which rise like a ship's sails over soft sand beaches and the emerald waters of the Gulf of Mexico. Those same white quartz dunes are responsible for a rare coastal ecosystem — freshwater dune lakes — which teem with aquatic wildlife. Walkers will pass through old-growth pine forests, sandy scrubland, dunes and wetlands, where they may see some of the 13 imperiled species that find refuge here, like the Choctawhatchee beach mouse and otherworldly-looking pitcher plants. Topsail Hill offers three miles of pristine beaches and is a bird-watching and hiking paradise.

In 1937, our grandmother took her first trip to the panhandle of northern Florida and found pristine beauty in the crystal white beaches and the aqua blue waters. This unforgettable experience prompted her to take many more trips to South Walton with her family over the years. In 1968, our family's love for the area culminated with the purchase of this property, and we have been operating as a campground ever since.
South Walton has experienced a tremendous transformation over the decades, but our goal of sharing this area with our guests has never wavered. Whether you have been staying with us for years, or if you have never visited us before, we are excited for you to experience the same beauty that captivated our grandmother over 85 years ago!

Great spot! Cool shorter hiking trails to take you to lakes or the gulf, or as we call it Lake Florida now. For hammock campers the tent camping spots are okay for hammock camping. I made due but I was in spot 21 and there are no trees accessible enough to hang a hammock up how you would want, BUT they had a couple 4x4s in the ground so I used one of those and a tree, everything went up properly. It was windy, rainy and around 30° and I was extremely comfortable.
Fire pits are great, it looks like all spots have a picnic table.
All in all great spot. I’ll be back soon!
LegendKeep in mind, this is a Preserve. Good trails, coastal dunes with lakes, fishing, paddling, beach, cabins, and tent camping including Glamping!

CG is within the State Forest about 2 miles in, off US98, on Level 2 roads. Follow “Primitive camping area” signs to parking area, watching for route. Packin-pack out. Once at parking area, choose Eastern Lake Area 1 of 2.
Legend
Park and CG was not busy or dull considering our January visit. Unique lake dunes offered trails, beach access, and paddling/fishing. CG had good amenities: water, electric, hard pads, tables, showers/rr.

Single loop campground mostly RVs most of the site right next to the lake quiet, peaceful, amazing simple getaway. Half mile trail around the lake to the north campground on the other side of the lake. Both campgrounds are very similar.

This is a great single loop 20 site campground right on the lake mostly rvers. Individual bathroom, shower rooms, clean, and nice. Half mile walk around the lake to the adjacent campground on the south side of the lake is a single loop 20 site or so campground.

As always we were running late. We called ahead and after proof of reservation, a few friendly questions, we were given a gate code. Florida parks is always on top of it! Never though I would feel it necessary to comment” the most astounding gravel driveway” Clean shower houses, neat and tidy park, slept like a baby.
Guide
Had reservations for 2 nights at this location. Decided to go to the Florida Cavern State Park instead. Glad we changed. They are right next to a strip joint. Guess they left that out of the brochure on purpose.

Great State Park. Under a little construction can’t wait to see when completed. Beaches. Views. All hook ups. Quiet and at the end of Panama Beach away from the big tours areas.
Scout
This is an excellent RV site to stop. Its extremely clean, and well kept. We have visited numerous times, since my grandson lives near my, this has become our homebase in Pensicola.

Beautiful view of the lake & spacious sites. Make sure you take supplies, groceries trip is 20-30 minutes

We just stayed here for the weekend with our two kids and dog and it was so nice. We had a site right in front of the pond and it was not a long walk to the bathroom/shower area. Showers could have been a bit cleaner, but overall it was a nice stay. Wish they kayak rentals for the ponds. But it was still nice and quiet!

Our trip to St Andrew’s state park was cancelled due to Hurricane Helene so we had to make last minute change. We found them and they were only to blocks to the beach. Great location with restaurants and with access to to beach w/public restrooms right there. Also there is public parking as well at beach. Pads are all concrete and they help you park. Great little RV park. Beach was great.

It’s perfection. Beautiful beach, TWO pools, water slide, shop, activity center, pristine bathrooms and an awesome vibe. You can’t help but have fun here. And it comes at a price. $200/night in the off season.

It’s pretty new. It’s clean. The owner is great. He allowed us an early check in. Some full timers. Some passing thru one night only. Everyone friendly. It’s quiet. No parties. No loud music. Not much shade. Small spaces. No bathrooms. Few spaces back up to a 4 lane highway. Full hookups are nice. We were in town for the Blue Angels and didn’t spend much time at the park. It’s about 25mi or 45min from Pensacola Beach.
Scout
Had the best time at Splash RV. It was my son’s birthday during our stay and they delivered a huge wooden cupcake with balloons to our campsite the day of his birthday. Staff is constantly cleaning up. Plenty of washers and dryers for laundry. Cute camp store and small arcade. Pool amazing is fun and clean.
LegendI’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!

Located in the sleepy hamlet of MaryEsther, which lies equidistant between Pensacola and Destin, not too far from this stunning stretch of the Gulf comprised of emerald aqua slowly lolloping ripples of waves that wet the pristine white powder sand beaches that you’ll be lucky to stroll down should you find yourself in this part of the Sunshine state, Grater RV Hideaway Cove is less the traditional RV depot and more of someone’s idea to turn a small plot of unused residential land into a fenced-in, maze-like RV resting spot.
So let me begin by saying that this micro-RV lot, which boasts just 9 slots, will not be for everyone, especially those that are looking for a pristine encounter with nature. Here, where you will be completely encased by 10-foot-tall wooden fences, which are for the most part, brand spanking new, with each site having some very decent space to spread out your camp. There are quaint touches throughout this place that attempts to convey a feeling of homeliness and familial welcoming, which somehow contrasts with all of the other signs you’ll encounter stating ‘private property’ or ‘you are under video surveillance’ from the few houses that are also encased inside this same wooden fenced-in residential enclave. In short, there’s a bit of a spooky element to this place, and dare I say (only because I'm now watching it for the second time now) giving off a bit of a 'LOST' vibe? Jack, Kate, Sawyer and, most importantly, Hurley, can you help me?!
I’ll be honest, rather than 'LOST' this place reminds me a bit of the dystopian scenario that plays out in episode 3 of ‘The Last of Us,’ wherein Bill, brilliantly played by Nick Offerman, is a post-apocalyptic survivalist who, once the entire town has been evacuated by the government, builds a fence around his entire neighborhood and nearby shops, fortifying this doomsday oasis with electric fencing, video cameras, search lights and booby traps. All in all though, if you can get over the eeriness of this place, I’m sure it’s a wonderful, private experience for those who don’t mind the set up and location that they find themselves encased within.
Amenities: 360 degrees of 10’ tall wooden fencing, very level back-in sites with freshly laid gravel along with full hook-ups (20 / 30 / 50 amp electricity, water and sewage), pet friendly and, of course, security surveillance! There’s no onsite bathroom, shower facilities or even WiFi (why would one need these things in an apocalypse?).
Insider’s tips? (1) This is certainly not a destination, and more of an option for those that simply need to park their RV somewhere for the night, unless that is, you really don’t mind the desolate environment of a ‘fenced-in-backyard’ kind of vibe; (2) As you are located just 3-4 blocks away from the main 4-line highway 98 here, you really are located close to prime beach heads, where you can either cross directly south of the highway to The Narrows or move further west to Upper Pritchard Long Point, both of which make perfect places to launch paddleboards and kayaks or go for a day of fly fishing; (3) When you get tired of trying to conjure up something interesting for your next meal, you will want to say ‘Mahalo’ later after heading on over to Kalai’s Hawaiian Kitchen for some amazing Kalua Pork, BBQ Chicken or Garlic Shrimp that really will make you feel like ‘Ohana’; and (4) If you’re traveling with kiddos, head on over to Emerald Coast Science Center for interactive, hands-on exhibits featuring biology, colors, vehicles and the human body.
Happy Camping!
LegendWould highly recommend this adorable RV Park. Peaceful spot and we felt safe. Level gravel sites with nice FHUs! Owner Russel is very helpful & friendly and pays special attention to the landscaping with added touches, such as nice new picnic tables and a hammock at our sight, and charming outdoor decor! Close to Beaches, restaurants, shopping, and many area attractions! Walmart and Publix, with a pharmacy and liquor store, and a Citgo, just around the corner, on Hwy 98. Donut shop, Hibachi, laundry mat, coffee shop, and Murphy’s Vet clinic, literally across the street. I had Good reception with T-Mobile @ 4 bars.

The most beautiful lake and the park stay just that better!!
GuideThe 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.

Site #1. May. No one else there. Pretty hot during the day - 90s and around 70 at night. But the spring is about a 5 min walk and one can swim whenever. Already made reservations for next year. Beautiful and quiet only 3 sites. Sites good size. Picnic pavilion is excellent.
LegendWe have been to Splash RV two times now. Last time was before school started, and it has been our granddaughters favorite RV park so far. There are a lot of activities planned for the kids….the free donuts on the weekend, were a hit. Our sites were back in, with full hook ups, level site and picnic table. The lazy river and waterslides were her favorite. We especially liked the armband so the kids were able to purchase food, drinks, game tokens for the arcade, which was great on the day that it rained the karaoke was also a lot of fun, and the foam party was a blast to watch. Staff was very nice. The bathrooms and laundry facilities were clean and large, but We did not use. The dog park is very big with a dog washing station. Piggly Wiggly is nearby as well as gas stations and dollar store…it is a little more pricey than we normally spend, but it was worth it to see the smile on our granddaughters face. I would recommend looking at the map online, before booking, to make sure you choose the right spot for your RV as some are closer together than others.

Nice campground, gravel site with small pad with picnic table and fire ring. FHU, and plenty of activities and amenities for our granddaughter. Playground, mini golf, large outdoor Connect Four game. Nice dog park, camp store and pool, but too cold to swim. Didn’t use facilities, but looked clean. Tents and cabins in backside of the park. I would reserve there if possible some interstate noise upfront. Staff friendly and took us to our site. Love the bike trails nearby.
TravelerOverall the campground is great. The only downside is that you cannot drive to the beach. You have to walk or bike the 2-mile round trip or wait on a handful of tram rides. The main sites are a little close, so there isn't as much isolation. The pool was nice, but was crowded frequently.
GuideWe had some rain but wasn't a big deal. The site we had was superb as had plenty of elbow room and with all the trees and bushes, could not even see the camper next to us. Great location if you want to drive into Pensacola. Was nice walk to the river with all the sandbars.
TravelerThis was our first visit to Topsail. We rented bicycles and enjoyed the paved paths and private beach over the dunes. Unfortunately the water was closed due to rip tides but we enjoyed lounging in the sun. I do wish the store on site had a larger selection and took Apple pay. All in all a wonderful experience.
