    Great place for a weekend getaway. The RV spots have an elevated deck that keeps you out of the mud. Picnic table, fire pit etc…. The sites are secluded enough to enjoy the beautiful surroundings and get lost in the sounds of the swamp. The nature center is a must see. Inside you will find information and displays of the local flora and fauna. There are several aquatic animals in tanks for viewing. We spent about an hour looking around and if we weren’t starving we would have stayed longer. There is playground and a splash pad area that makes the park great for kids. The camping and cabin areas are paved which makes biking and scootering around easy. The only downside to this park is most all the trails and all of the boardwalk trails are closed due to massive storm damage. I commend the work that has been done to restore this park after the multiple storms we have had however, there is substantial damage to what I consider the “main attraction” of the park, the natural surroundings. That being said you will still see an abundance of cypress, pine and oak trees. Don’t forget to visit the grandmother tree! (400-800 years old) Definitely worth a visit.

    This park is a hidden gem, tucked away off the beaten path approximately 17 miles from I-12. Rest assured, your journey will be well worth it.Upon arrival, we were delighted to discover a truly beautiful park. We had the pleasure of spending two nights here, enjoying the tranquil surroundings and the wonderful raised decks. Sorry, no photos this trip.

    Good place to hangout with kids. It rained couple of days back ...so there was mud and was slippery few places. Better cover full and have some mosquito/ insect repellent creams. Also lookout for snakes. ... Isolated area and cellular signals are almost dead.

    Totally worth the visit! This park is clean, well kept and RV sites are nice with many of them facing the woods, away from neighbors. Tent sites are separated from RV sites. Tent sites are somewhat dry, with just water available. Glamp cabins look really nice, specially the secluded ones along the pond (watch for 🐊!) Amenities: large cabins (13), splash pad, nature center, huge group cabin (1), glamp cabins (my favorite), fishing pond, hiking trails (3-4), volleyball court, basketball hoop, dump station (right by the RV site entrance), laundry mat, most RV sites with a deck, several woodsy RV sites (privacy), plenty of picnic areas, premium sites have sewer hookup, playground, and you have to explore the rest... You can also rent canoes during season.

    Nice place. Need work on the trails and water ways for the canoe use, those still close. Nature center is very interesting with nice displays and information. Cabins are very nice. They remodeling some of them. Water park is Cool.

    A hidden gem! We rented canoes and spent the day on the water! We saw gators and otters. We were even able to camp here. This place was awesome. Although 20 dollars seems a bit expensive to me for a campsite but worth it
