The surrounding landscape is defined by vast salt marshes and tidal creeks, providing a prime environment for birdwatching and coastal photography.

Campgrounds was clean and nice. Spots are very tight (like literally tripping over your neighbors tight). Probably will not return just for that fact. Location is great, shame they cant get rid of 2 spots and open it up a bit...not like its overly busy.

An established RV campground in a beautiful location with a friendly and helpful staff. Stayed in a waterfront site for two nights and aside from being a bit close to neighboring RVs, it was well worth it for the peaceful, scenic location. Sites are level, crushed rock, not overly difficult to back into with a 31' motorhome. All utilities worked without issue (power, water, sewer and cable). Although available, I did not try WiFi. Highly recommend this park right on the water.

Absolutely beautiful location! Friendly and helpful staff. Facilities are very clean and shower water was super hot and roomy in the stall. Pool temperature was PERFECT. Absolutely recommend spending some time here. Very special place.

Sites are very close together. Gravel roads and sites are also a negative. The campground is kept clean, bathhouse is air conditioned and clean and pool area is nice. Pool area could use some covered space or umbrellas to get out of the sun.

Perfect, just Perfect. Great views, the cleanest restrooms we have ever seen at a campground by far! Jazmine and her staff do an amazing job of welcoming you to their little slice of heaven. The gulf is 2.8 miles away and a nice park with old Florida vibes, not condos and hotels, just sand and saw grass. We will return soon!
