Gorgeous area, good campsite. Would be nice if the bathrooms in this loop were open but no worries, the other ones were close enough and I recognize that it takes time to renovate. The fishing was amazing.

We only spent one night but it was beautiful and we will definitely book a longer visit next time! The beach was lovely! The sites are close to each other but for the time we were there it was pretty quiet and peaceful. Love the trees

Great campsites, beautiful area. The fort is very neat. The drive in feels like another planet. Definitely go!

We have always stayed in loop D and on this visit it was loop B. The shade was so nice.

We felt safe at all times and were welcomed by nearby campers. Beautiful environment. We are eager to come back.

Great place. Bad news: I gave a fair review only because the bathhouse was in bad shape: the showers did not work very well. Very low water output and almost no water pressure. The water stream was like a water fountain rather than a shower. It was however warm water! And, the shower floor was pretty dirty too. One of the toilets was stopped. Not frighteningly bad but the family didnt like it, kids made a big deal about it, and they arent all that picky. Good news: The park rangers were nice and very helpful, as were the volunteers (I think they were volunteers) the campground areas and trails were very clean. The beaches are largely untouched. It would be nice if the camp store reopened.
Good

The only minor degradation in the whole experience was the group of campers right behind me. A single Father with five rambunctious kids. I understand how kids are but this made for a very noisy evening into the wee hours. He tried his best to keep them quiet but what can you do?.... I get it Kids are kids. I was very tired and retired for the night early anyhow. I love Ft Pickens. I have been coming here since 1986. It holds many memories and I am sure many more will be made here. The bird sightings are great Sharp-Shinned Hawk was good. I called in a couple of Great horned owls in at 0330am while everyone else was dreaming. I love the Gulf. I love the Sand. I love the Oaks. I love the Palmetto and Pine Barrens. I love our park. Thank you guys for the work that you do. Day after day... Removing the sand, dealing with the flooding, annoyed park quest, all of you guys do great job for our National Park System. It is a joy to come and see. Aloha from Hawaii! I wish Hawaii had a park like this.

Beautiful beaches and a surprisingly rich history. I didnt realize that this is a terminus of the Florida Trail. The campsites were a little close to one another but that was my only disappointment.

Beautiful! I love it and Ill be back.

Campsites need trees or bushes in between them. Too open with no privacy. Need water and electricity to the tent campsites.

All good

Tough to separate campground experience from park experience. I came in the middle of a heatwave, which made tent camping unbearable. Across from me someone had a portable AC unit, which not only rubbed salt in the wound, but also kept me up all night. While this made for an unpleasant experience, it was made up for by this: by camping here, you get the privilege of seeing incredible sunrises and sunsets. The visit before last there was a light rain overnight. Waking up for the sunrise, I found myself alone, exploring the island, surrounded by four rainbows, bathed in orange and lavender light, soft emerald waves rolling in. Sunset swims are equally fantastic, watching the stars come out, and the light house beacons come on, colors I have never seen before, impossible to describe. Having these experiences, practically alone, in silence, this could not happen if I hadn’t camped here. Next time I will try for late early summer when the heat won’t be unbearable and there won’t be campers breaking campground rules by using portable AC units to keep you up at night.

Fort Pickens offers a wonderful Fort in which to tour, as well as beautiful pristine beaches. The Campground is well groomed and cared for, and the bath and shower facilities are very clean and convenient.

Great campground. Facilities were clean. Beaches are beautiful.
@lonnieh849 · Camped on Apr 4, 2021 at Campsite #B12
Superb location. Plenty of activities to do. Nice campgrounds with a few trails and a pleasant walk down to the beach over the boardwalk. Could use more showers. Friendly and helpful staff. Pensacola Beach has great restaurants and IMO has the best beaches in the US.
Good

Always great! Shower wait time in loop B was really long with only 2 showers available....
