It's hard to decide whether this is a 4 or 5 so I'll list the pros and cons and you can decide for yourself what's important. For us, the pros made it a 5 and it's a place we would love to come back to. As background, we stayed in a 26 travel trailer, over New Year. Pros: + Stunning location + Some of the best bird watching we've found + Lots of nature trails + A beautiful beach with great shelling + Near to Apalachicola - we got a taxi on New Year and it didn't break the budget! + Old but clean bathrooms + Good sized, private sites, surrounded by vegetation Cons: - Long way from the ranger station to the campsite (around 4 miles) - No laundry (that we found) - but it is a state park - Sites are compacted shells so we needed a bit of work to get level, but did without too much trouble
