We had a mobile home and it was a wonderful stay. The kitchen was well equipped, it was a nice quiet place. The beach was beautiful, the café was awesome. Bikes were fun. An all around good time!

We’ve stayed here twice—once in a camper and then last week in a tent. Both are good, but the tent sites are exceptional: fine gravel pads, clothes lines for towels and such, beautiful natural feel, and close proximity to restrooms and showers. The beach, too, is great. Especially for kids, kayaks, and paddle boards. If you are into shelling you’ll want to visit some other beaches further to the east as SoWal beaches have next to no shells. While there we saw bald eagles, a gator, pods of dolphins, and a couple small sharks. The beach itself is pristine and separate from the glut of development that comprises much of 30A. .

One of the nicest beaches on the Gulf.. plenty of fine white sands and sun. The beach is a nice short trip via shuttle. Bike trails and Kayaks to rent. They don't have fire pits but you're able to bring a portable one. No Wifi was a mixed bag of positive and negative. Reception on cellular was great (5G Verizon). Will definitely come here again.

We stayed for 5 nights. The staff were super friendly. The smoothie at the café was delicious and refreshing. The campground was clean. The beach was beautiful and the bike trails were perfect. We even made it to the dunes. The bathrooms were well maintained even with the busyness. Down sides: We stayed at site #51. The pad was broken up and was a tripping hazard for us and it was difficult to back the camper in due to the parking right in front. The pool water was not refreshing at all. We jumped in and jumped right out. There were more positives than negatives, so I didn't remove a star. We would definitely recommend it to our friends 🧡

This is the nicest park we’ve been to after two months, multiple states, national Parks, State Parks, city parks, you name it. This is the best so far! The sites are spacious, the foliage is beautiful. We enjoyed the walk to the ocean then a nice trolley ride back. We took a dip in the pool and noted lots of people riding bicycles and kids playing everywhere. The park has full hook up with fantastic water pressure, actually 70 psi so we had to regulate down from there. We only spent one night here in June 2025 and didn’t have time to rent the kayaks or other options they had. An air force base is nearby so don’t be surprised to hear early morning thunder in the sky. We look forward to coming back here and spending at least a week next time.

Continues to be the top notch campground in the Gulf area! Great tram takes you to the beach daily. Great hosts. Cleanest bathrooms anywhere!!

This place has it all! A shuttle to the beach and hiking trails, paddle board/kayak rentals, and real live alligators! Clean bathrooms and outdoor showers too. Soft sandy beaches. We had the best time on the beach and then walked to the lake at sunset! Beautiful day at a beautiful place!

Wonderful, relaxed park! Gorgeous beach and beautiful nature! Remember to bring your bike. It's the easiest way to get around there. The cabin was very cozy and clean!

My family glamped here and it was such a tremendous time. Beautiful place. Some of our group enjoyed the bicycle tour on Wednesday morning. We saw alligators, eagles and dolphins. Gorgeous powdery sand. Glamping tips: There are some fire ant mounds congregated around the glamping sight, especially the hose area. They will get you while you try to wash up. A hose to distance yourself from the spigot and some bug bite salve would be a good idea to bring.

Stunning park with sand dunes, coastal scrub, lakes and pine forests! The trails are relatively short and we finished in 2 days. The park is incredibly well maintained, trails well labeled, multiple bathrooms, and picnic spots. The campgrounds are some of the best we've camped at, with water, electricity and a fire ring! Highly recommend the Morris lake trail, there's nothing like hiking through the pristine dunes!

Beaches, bikes, cabins, RVs, trails, wildlife, & boardwalks! Easily my favorite state park. I posted my first review 3 years ago. We rented a cabin to celebrate a graduation back then and have followed with many great day trips. Trams to the beach and beach wheelchairs! Update: The owl nest seen this past winter had an eagle in it today! (May 2, 2021)

We came during COVID so the pool and shuttle was shut down. The bath house for our area was too and these reasons why we gave it 3 stars. Park is beautiful with flowers and a pond and roomy. All spots are concrete. Went and looked at the tent sites out of curiosity (we used their bath house) and they were nice and private. Beach is pretty far so we know why they have a shuttle but we hiked it just to stay busy. Great location and it isn't in a loud tourist area but is a short distance from it all if that's what you're wanting. Oh and there's a coffee shop on the premises!

Tram not running so didn't do the mile walk to the beach. Just strolled a short way on the trail.
