This camping spot was very quiet and peaceful.

Which is really nice unless you are a family of seven with really loud kids and a dog…

I still really liked it though.

Beautiful

I loved the pine forest in the middle of the sites.

There was no hiking that I knew of but the walk around the campgrounds was beautiful.

The playground near our site was really nice! The only downside to this campground was the flooding that was going on and the location (it was in the middle of nowhere). We checked out a swimming spot I found on google the next day and it was flooded also so looked totally different than the pics. The kids still had fun even if they had to stay close to the shore. Afterwards we went to the Red Slough Wildlife Refuge to hunt for an alligator 😉 We did not see any but we did see a snake or two and this fawn.On Saturday we went to Beavers Bend State Park and it was kind of the start of a not great rest of the trip.

It happens, they can’t all be amazing.

Ha
This spot was pretty cool though.

There were just SO many people all over the park!And in trying to avoid the crowds I picked a difficult hike which had lots of climbing without the amazing views that make it worth it.It was one of those push yourself and be happy when you make it back to your car and can be done hiking type hikes…This was a beautiful campground though that I would not mind staying at again.

Just need to remember to never go to Beavers Bend on the weekend again.
