This is more primitive being a National Park, but that doesn't bother me much. In the summer, the mosquitos are especially bad bayside... stick with the seaside or State Park. If you require better bathroom facilities, go to the State Park. You will see the horses roam through the area and possibly block your access to the bathroom! It is nice to be closer to the bayside beach and boat access. You can play in the shallow, calmer water there!
