It was all good for the most part. But there are a lot of biting ants and Bertelsmann and bugs. When we siting around the fire at night even with bug spray on the ants kept bitting us. We had about 100 bites on our legs and feet and it was awful. Not sure if we will camp there again.

Love camping here because the beach is easy to access. The campground offers very little privacy and not much shade. We lucked out on our site which backed up to an overgrown area of weeds, trees, and brush. We could step out our door and sit in the shade, but had to be careful of all the poison ivy. We called it our little poison ivy patch oasis! It would be nice if the park could spray the poison ivy around the sites to get rid if it. I bet a lot of people go home with a bad rash.

Great week. Would like better parking for campers. Maybe at the site. Sewer dump is the worst I’ve ever been to. Try to dump uphill and no hose connection. We love the camping as a whole.

I was grateful to get a last-minute reservation when Florida State Parks accidentally cancelled my reservation at a nearby campground! As a tent camper, loop B had no electric nor water, yet I was prepared so all the necessities were there for a pleasant overnight stay. All sites are park-at-your-site, thankfully...not the walk-in kind. The campground and the fellow campers had a pleasant nostalgic old-school feel, so different from the state parks where the evenings are silent as everyone but the tenters retreat into their RV's at dusk. The bathroom / shower building was clean but has no A/C so super humid. Staff were top-notch, welcoming and professional. The gorgeous beach is steps from a campground parking area and as an early bird, I had the beach to myself on a Friday morning. Thoroughly enjoyed my stay and look forward to return.

Love this place. Try to camp here every year
Some of the sites aren’t too shady so if you are tent camping try to find one that is, at least in the warmer months. Or make sure to pack a shade canopy.

The bathroom and showers were disgusting this trip. I showed outside as the water was scolding and stinky in shower stalls. The women’s large stall was backed up and stinky the entire weekend. No one came to do anything about until checkout on Sun.

The boardwalk to the beach is in disrepair and I would consider it a safety hazard. It needs to be immediately closed or repaired. Although the bathrooms were cleaned daily, they looked rundown. The shower/bathroom unit near B loop had minimal shower pressure, some faucets did not work properly and is need of a fresh coat of paint. It looks like mold was growing in the shower room. The water spigot was being used as a "clean up" place and bathroom sink (people brushing their teeth and spitting out next to the spigot). Proper hygiene signs could be installed to address these issues.
