I tent camped by the intracoastal waterway, walked some of the Palmetto Trail, and observed birds and wildlife while strolling around the campground. The facilities are well maintained and clean. I definitely want to come back and explore more of the area.

Everything was great except campers in adjacent site had a live band with an excessive number of people.

Should nor allow generations to run 24/7. Luckily it was site 1. We were in 3. The campers in 2 left because of the noise. Really ruined an other wise beautiful camping area.

Great place to fish! Easy in and out boat ramp. Fishing pier to fish or crab from. Very caring Host & Hostess. Old bathroom facilities, but continuously being cleaned. Most camping spots are nicely spaced apart. No store in campground area,so you have to bring everything with you.

It's such a popular campground for fishermen in the fall months, and very helpful hosts Ted and Beth did whatever they could to help us extend our stay. Even though our stay was limited, we'll definitely be back for the calm, clean atmosphere.

Probably one of the nicest parks we’ve ever been to! Gorgeous lakefront sites! Cell service is spotty! Definitely a must see park!

This is a nice area and very well-maintained. The sites are a little too close together for my taste but that’s what you get in campgrounds sometimes. It was nice to see the boats going by on the intercoastal waterway.

This is a nice camp ground, but lacks care. The grass was not cut and extremely high. Also the water at the dump station did not work.
