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!

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!
Legend
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.
Guide
It was reasonable and the people who ran it were very nice. Nice store
GuideWe had great but tight camping just 10 steps from the beautiful sandy beach. Lots of great and clean amenities. Very nice people running the campground and very nice people around us. The beach is beautiful.
GuideWith only 20 sites, this Campground is small, but very peaceful with great views. Most sites are a tight Squeeze for larger campers.
Traveler
Stayed on sit 58 right on water, full hook up, Bathrooms clean, Wi-Fi good but you have to sign in with the company providing it 7 dollars a day, great access to beaches, good fishing along beaches and jetties, plenty of places to walk and ride bikes
GuideWe camped here in 2022 and loved it! Water views, tons of trails, both walking and biking, deer cane right into our campsite a few times and we saw so many on our bike rides. Beautiful campground, well maintained! One of our favorites!
Guide
Nice place on the lake, well maintained. We wanted to do laundry and try new kind of a campground. Overall positive, but expensive. Sites are really near each other, no privacy. Probably ok for one time. Will go back to the more simple campgrounds. Had Wi-Fi, slow 1-2mgb/s . Att reception is fast.
ScoutGreat campground in a fantastic location. Can’t be closer to the beach.
Guide
As far as the campground goes, the ground is nice and even with fire pits and trees. But the bathrooms and showers are dirty and gross. The staff is lazy and rude. The grounds are rundown. The slides look dirty and unsafe. Over it was over priced for the experience offered.
LegendThis is one of our favorite state parks! Make reservations early, they book up quick! You can make reservations 11 months in advance but we have scored a site setting up a cancellation notification.
The jetty area is perfect for young kids, it’s shallow enough for them to play and very little waves. Water is beautiful!! Be sure to bring your own chairs and umbrella, they are expensive to rent.
Campground has full hook ups, big rig friendly, laundry (bring your own quarters) and clean bath houses!
LegendPROS

LegendThis is one of the best campgrounds we've ever stayed! Beautiful, picturesque campsites. A lot of them have lake views. Bathrooms/showers are gorgeous.
We didn't use the pool.
They have a nice camp store/office.
There's a lot of wooden fishing docks. Boats to rent.
The gate has an access code, but they text you with the code. I didn't check my texts, so there was some confusion on my part.
The only negative thing I can think of to say is the sites are rather tight. We had an empty site next to us for 2 nights, so it was all good!
GuideAmazing state park on the water. The campground is modern with nice clean bathrooms, laundry machines, vending machines, park store with cart rentals and other items. The spaces are close together but great. Nice level gravel pads, full hookups including sewer, and most have fire pits and picnic table.
GuideFar yet close…that’s the first thing that comes to mind. Far enough away from the hustle and bustle of the beach areas but close enough to enjoy them just the same. Do yourself a favor and give this place a try if you are in the Panama City beach/bay county/Walton county area. Quiet, serene, easy to get to if you don’t mind dirt roads that are amazingly maintained for a state forest campground! Site 10 was fabulous and all sites have 50/30 amp hookup and water. Dump station nearby and a hood bathhouse area with showers. You have a pond with a fishing dock and a camp host in site 1. I can’t say enough good things about this little gem just 15 miles north of PCB. Off hwy 79 it’s a short drive off interstate 10 exit 112. My wife, 12 yr old and mini Aussie are having a blast, so much so maybe I need to just keep this a secret??!!! Haha happy camping!
ScoutGreat campground, much to do in the park & around the park. IMO, best beaches in the USA.
Guide
The location is awesome. There is laundry and showers on site. The campground is mixed with some hotel and villa accommodations as well. The pool and splash pad are perfect for kids. The staff was friend and helpful. The area is clean.
I would say they could use some refreshing of the amenities but overall they are still clean and operational.
Guide
Nice people. Lots of trees and large spots. It’s also a short walk to the water. Close to several towns including Ft Walton Beach. We are currently at the Family camp and will bounce between the two campgrounds on base
GuideLevel and newish gravel sites so still LOTS of rocks no mud. Fire pits on a brick base. Newer wooden picnic tables. State park has a beach with public restrooms. There are 3 camp stores throughout the park. One at beach, one at jetty, one closer to camp. Many campsites are tight on the bay and you can see the water from most of the sites. It’s a large park. You can rent golf carts to get around. There is a large center area in the campground with a built in corn hole game and a giant checker board with a large community fire pit. There are areas along the sandy bay shoreline in the campground where you can sit on the beach. The bathhouse is ok. Certainly not terrible but it won’t wow you. It would be better if the showers had a private “dry area”. That’s the one part about the bathhouse I don’t care for. You either stand in the wet shower to dress and possibly get your clothes wet or come out naked. But if you don’t need to shower in there it’s awesome!
LegendBrand new campground. Nice gravel sites. Some are waterfront. A little less “outdoor feeling” than other Florida state parks but very comfortable. The park itself is great with an amazing beach.
TravelerShort walk to the beach. Sites are close together $200/night
ScoutThis campground is gated with beautiful views in all directions! We saw some of the best sunsets the pan handle has to offer.
GuideBrand new but like a RV park
ScoutGreat place, level concrete sites, many with pond view, nice, clean bathhouse, trash cans, and dumpsters, water and electric , dump station... The only con is sites are close.
ScoutVery nice sites, well developed, well kept
Scout
Not much privacy
ScoutLagoon front sites available for tents, vans, or campers with hookups and water! Close to private oceanfront.
