This place was laid out and built by someone who hates RVs. Seriously steep compound slopes, tight 90 degree turns, and hookups 100’ away on the wrong side of the site all make this place horrible for anything but a pop up. I saw at least four people worth reservations leave because they couldn’t get into their site. The bath house has one working shower and it wasn’t very clean. The dump station was 15’ from a site so I totally ruined someone’s peaceful breakfast. The hiking trail was a dead end on an unidentifiable paved road. The beach and boat access are gated until 10am. No early morning paddling for me.

Now the good stuff:

1. Not ALL the flies bite.
2. The shade was pretty good.
3. The park was quiet.
4. The horse camping sites looked pretty good, pretty level, and they had full hookups.

This park is cared for and very nicely executed. The sites all look level (ours was) and the hookups are well placed and maintained. Everything is aesthetically pleasing and done well. The pool and rec room are quite nice and the lakes are fun to paddle around. Our only complaint is the lack of space. Our site was separated from the one next to us by about 10 feet. We look for a more spacious, nature-oriented park, and this was not that at all. No picnic tables, fire rings, or grills-because there’s no room for them on any but a few spots. Nice for a friendly crowd, but not the right place for a peaceful camping experience.

Nice level concrete pads. Space between sites. Friendly people. Nice playground. Rustic pond with ducks. But, No shade at most sites. Nothing really to do except the playground. Right next to a junkyard. WiFi was overwhelmed and unusable.

There’s quite a lot of hurricane damage, but I get the impression it wasn’t that nice before the damage occurred. There isn’t much to do unless the water park is open. The whole area is basically a swamp and the hiking trail is therefore quite wet and sloppy. Fire rings are in some sites but not all. Same with picnic tables. The gulf view area is essentially a parking lot and there’s a road between the camping area and the water. Also, no beach. There’s a sea wall and then the water. A railroad runs by quite close to the park, though only a few trains a day go by. There are biting, swarming gnats that somehow manage to swarm and bit when it’s only 50 degrees.

The positives are full hookups, though the sewer on spot 129 was recessed into concrete at a weird angle and could not be connected. The concrete site was quite level and easy to get into. Cheap rates.

Lots of room and very shaded. Most sites are very close to the water. There isn’t much of a beach as the strip of sand between the grass and the water is quite narrow. If you want to avoid the crowd this is the place. If you want a vast and beautiful beach go somewhere else.

Gravel are level with room between sites. Quiet, not too big, and full hookups. Grill, fire ring, and nice picnic table at all sites. Lots of shade.
