Great location!! We took our family here and enjoyed it! One of my favorite KOAs so far. We hit Destin, Gulf Shore, and Perdido Key beach, and the location of it it’s kind of right in the middle to hit all of these places. People are super nice and clean facility. Will definitely be coming back here again!

It is a older but nice park. 1/2 the spaces are packed together. The others have some space. Sadly when we first came in we could not slow down fast enough when we saw the entrance sign. So we went in through the exit. A tree branch hangs down into the drive there. We tore our awning canopy about a foot on it. There is a nice pool area, also if you have a boat there is a marina there. Grocery store (Publix and Walmart) are a 30 minute drive back over bridge into Pensacola. To get to the Pensacola Island beach, it just over an hour drive. Recommend that the KOA trim their trees up. Not just at the exit, but in the park too.

I stayed a this Koa for the month of April with my sister. When I walked into our cabin the floors were really sticky so I got a rag and washed them the water was completely black. Also the couple that stayed next to us went out and bought a mop and cleaned there floors because their socks were black on day one. When you pay this kind our money you expect better conditions. Also there were kids on Minnie bikes driving on the grounds. And car loads of people using the pool that weren’t Koa members.

We stopped here on our way to WDW. We only stayed for one night and wish we were able to stay longer. Staff was wonderful. We were in a pull thru site. It was a little tight and not as spacious as some but still very private. Bathrooms were nice and clean and spacious. We enjoyed walking around the campground. The cabins looked nice. This is a great place for all travel types, including tents. We went to the cafe on the edge of the property and had one of their sandwiches. They also have pizza and other items. The pool was very nice as well. The walk to the beach area was wonderful and the pier was fun to walk on. The people in the cabins along the beach were having a great time. This will definitely be on our list for a repeat and longer visit.

We recently stayed at this campground and had a mixed experience. The water view is definitely a highlight very beautiful and relaxing, especially after a long day of travel. Unfortunately, the facilities could use some attention. Also no hot water for showers. What really impacted our stay, though, was the interaction with staff. We arrived late and decided to unwind at the pool well within posted hours. About 10 minutes in, the manager approached us questioning whether we had reservations, which felt uncomfortable and confusing. Later, a man (older man with a black dog, Jayco RV) from RV located across the pool, came over & without any greeting, spoke to us in a harsh tone about the pool closing time even though it wasn’t yet closing. The interaction felt unnecessarily confrontational and unwelcoming. Overall, we paid over $100 per site and expected a more welcoming and respectful experience. After a long day of traveling, a little kindness and professionalism would have gone a long way.
