The historical part of Fort Pickens was great. Hope to come back another time to see more. The restrooms were good but the showers left a lot to be desired. No curtains in shower and no hooks to hang anything up and no bench.

We stayed the last week of May in sites E19 & 21. Our kids stayed in a pop up and we stayed in our 42 foot fifth wheel. We fit in our site using hang over space and parked in over flow parking by the beach trail. Had a great time! No issues with camp host or park rangers. Shower houses are not great but we love the location. We have been camping each year for about 10 years.

Booked a site with a tree (according to the photos on the website) but No shade, no tree anywhere near our site. Other than that, campground was fine

Beautiful place course Im a little partial. Ive been going to Florida there. Well not to that campsite but staying at hotels there since the early 60s has a child and now that Im retired and have a travel trailer been staying there last year while travel trailer was just to go to the park, only thing I wish they give me more than 14 days during the season. Is that spectacular

Our family enjoyed our 6 night stay at Fort Pickens. The bathroom facility was kept up nicely and when the dishwashing sink got stopped up, it was fixed quickly. Our neighbors were friendly and the kids enjoyed getting to ride bikes around the campground. The site was a good size and we were able to set up all the things we brought with ease. One power box (we had two sites) kept tripping when we would try to run a coffee pot, but besides that, we had no issues! Will be coming back again next Spring break for sure!

The beaches on both sides were beautiful, the Florida Trail from the campground to the fort was just the right length for a walk, and the fort itself was so interesting! The woman who runs the gift shop at the fort was on top of everything. The campground was clean and spacious. More laundry facilities would have been nice, and also a quarter machine to trade in bills for quarters for the washers and dryers.

Bathroom showers need updated with hooks, clean curtains, a better place to set items, soap holders in the showers.

This was one of the best weeks we have ever had camping. It was beyond beautiful, peaceful and relaxing, and with the Blue Angels practicing right over head several days it was exciting too! If you love the beach we Highly recommend!

Great place to get away and enjoy nature at it's best. And learn a little bit about Fort Pickens history. Highly recommend!

Always a pleasure visiting Fort Pickens, when the weather cooperates.

Campground was clean and kept up. Bath house was clean and fully functional. Campsite was level and fire ring was cleaned out.

Excellent place to relax and unwind. If you like biking and hiking, this is the place.

Great camp grounds will definitely be back again

You cannot beat the price and beautiful beaches that are so peaceful and quiet! One of my favorite places to stay every year!

If you dont have a cell phone, sorry but there is no information sign, just numbers that we can't know what's all about. we must guess.

With new length restrictions on sites, motor homes 34 or longer will have great difficulty getting a site. There are many sites a motor home will fit on and keep tires on pavement but their new restrictions say, although you can over hang in the back, your camper MUST fit in site without overhanging. It applies to any camper. Most pull behinds or fifth wheels may fit but their vehicles have to park in overflow parking, which is limited. No other campground Ive ever been in used this guideline. Hope they realize this guideline does not make sense

Overall very good stay across two separate visits in late January and again in early February. Facilities were great, camp spots were well maintained. Shower and restroom facilities were clean. One not is on our visit from the 3rd to the 5th of February there was water across the road in several places. When we entered on the third we were told by entry ranger and then notified by camp check in that road would be closed at 4 pm due to high tide. On the 4th I went out to run errands and was not told that I wouldn't be able to return because the road was closed. Recommend that when a closure occurs that traffic leaving be notified of the situation so that they can make the call to leave or remain at the park.

Used to be our favorite spot as we traveled the panhandle. New changes which are unnecessary means this will be our last time if they start measuring RVs. We have never had a problem with our height or our length. Looks like the NPS had decided to discriminate against big rigs. Totally sucks

This was a great camping spot. The sites are close to the water, have bike/hike paths and away from the tourist spots. We rode our ebikes to Pensacola and felt safe as the speed limit is low. The beaches were beautiful.

Clean bathrooms, well kept park, beautiful beaches & easy access to them.

Ft. Pickens is an awesome campground. We love the crystal clear water and pristine, white sandy beaches. The area is quiet and relaxing. The only drawbacks are no sewage lack of parking. We love watching the Blue Angels practice from the beach and going to the lighthouse. Exploring the fort is also a favorite.

Wonderful! There was something for us all! Fishing, swimming and exploring the historic sites!
