One of my favorite parks--everything was outstanding!

Great campground for tent camping and small rigs like ours. Love this place!

Ranger in the morning is rude and said we did not put out our fire or take our trash, which we ALWAYS do.

I come here about twice a year to tent camp. The past three years facilities and service have gone far downhill. The best thing is of course LOCATION. Then access to uncrowded beaches. The sites are small and youll see/hear everything your neighbors do. Quiet hours are not enforced, neither is security. People somehow get the gate code and slide in after dark then leave at dawn. I suggest changing that gate code more often. Some people that Im not even sure were registered here pitched a tent in the woods and partied late. I could see the tent from the trail the next morning. I told the camp managers when I saw them, their response was Im sure they werent a threat. Really? That happened behind D24, so be aware. Friday and Saturday night was loud up to 1am. Please ride those golf carts around at 10pm so people see you are watching. The grills in D23&D24 are both broken. Then theres the bathrooms/showers. So nasty! Whoever you pay to clean, fire them and get someone who takes pride in their work. The bathroom stalls had grime up and down handle area. Floors need scrubbing, not a wet mop sloshed around. The showers will make you cringe. Take shower shoes and a shower mat to stand on while you dress. Try not to cry while you scrub in this nasty place. Can someone just use some comet and brushes? A lot of this stuff will come off if you would do it! Then paint the walls again. Try charging a $5 cleaning fee for each stay to raise the funds for it, or hire someone who does their job. I hate to see this happening at such a beautiful park.

Im from Kansas city and this was my 3rd trip back and I love it. Great bathrooms and showers. I love the boardwalks to the beaches and the less crowds. I cant wait to come back in the Spring!

We have a small teardrop and so we were able to stay in Loop D, which has no plug-ins, but was quiet and more spacious. Lots of beautiful live oaks on our site, and close to the Florida Trail, where you could hike less than a mile to fort Pickens or less than 5 minutes to the beach on the Pensacola side. The gorgeous Gulf beach is under a 10-minute walk, along a boardwalk through the dunes from these sites. The plug-in loops B, C, and D dont have as many trees and are much closer together, but there are some nice, more spacious sites. Loop A is the quietest, smallest and nicest, with lots of trees, but it fills up fast, I was told. The campgrounds are very well maintained, camp hosts very attentive. No wood for sale here, so you have to bring your own. The actual Gulf Islands National Seashore beach is the most beautiful Ive ever seen - white sands, lots of dunes and wildlife. We did lots of hiking around the park and along the beach, and explored Fort Pickens and learned about its interesting history at the Discovery Center. Many days we didnt use our car at all. We walked to the beach every evening to watch the gorgeous sunsets, and on several nights, stayed to watch the moon rise. Magical! A wonderful, relaxing 11-day stay!

We absolutely love it here. I would have given it 5 but we had to evacuate due to weather. I appreciate that the park service is looking out for our safety but we had to drive 4 hours to get another campsite.

Such a beautiful place. Would however like to see some electricity at the tent sites. Everyone was helpful from the check in desk to the host. My favorite place to camp!
@MichaelM541440 · Camped on Jun 4, 2022 at Campsite #D24
Great campsite. Showers were a little iffy in loop D or would have given it 5 stars

My favorite campground. Unfortunately I had an emefgency at home and was forced to leave a day early. I was issued a refund by the time I got home. Blue angel practice was ip close and personal. Wonderful place!

The beach was amazing, restrooms were clean, our campsite was spacious. It was a very large campground but the way they had it organized made it feel small ( loops). I would definitely recommend!!

Camped here in January with our van. RV sites were packed. Tents sites wide open. Loved the tent site, riding bike on the trails to the fort for sunset. Nice place especially in the tent area.
