Neighborhood barking dogs and trains were source of noise and decreased rating by one star. $11 rate reflects Senior pass discount. Area beaches are great, clean bathrooms and locking individual shower rooms with great hot water and pressure. Basically in a residential neighborhood. #38 would be best site IMO
Great deal. Go to Craft Advisory brewery and check out beaches here and in Biloxi

We camped here in a 40' motorhome in November 2021.
Our space was barely big enough for our large bus, so definitely be sure to check the sizes online when making your reservation.
We thought these sites were well worth it for $22/ni inside a National Park.
The park and the campground are small and very community feeling.
We loved the town of Ocean Springs, all the biking, and of course the beach!
Access is easy on paved roads the entire way.
No dump available at sites but easy pull through dump station available, and water & electric at each site.
Enjoy!

The campground is smaller than many national parks yet has a lot of activities to walk, bicycle or drive to. I suggest the larger inner sites with any large rigs. The paved sites are older asphalt and not all level especially the ones in the outer loop. There are four separate individual showers which were clean and hot.
The visitors center has reopened with great, informative displays. Many go fishing or boating although we walked the trails and along the road. Ocean Springs is not far by car and worth a day or more exploring the various shops and restaurants on its main streets of Government and Washington or one might also take a drive or bike to a beach area.
I’m not sure if it was due to early spring, but the tiny black bugs were a biting pest!

We were here in March - and it was chilly and a bit rainy. That said, the campground is run down and needs some infrastructure improvements. The Park Rd detour is still going on as of this review - it is well marked with orange detour signs. The concrete pads were old and some were crumbled and had cones on them and/or tree roots had burst through the concrete - you couldn't use them. (so a long-standing problem that hasn't been fixed) Many sites had trees - good for shade - not good for high RVs or slide outs. We had a heck of a time backing into site 34 due to the curve in the road, the ditch across the road, and the ground around the pad is sunk below the pad - you had to drive over the grass to make the cut onto the pad and our rear stabilizer got dragged but didn't bend. I would have to say this park was made back in the day when campers were smaller and it is perfect for that - we mostly saw class A and B and smaller towables. There are a few sites that can accommodate large rigs like ours, so just have to get one of them. The rangers ARE making sure you stay on your pad and off the grass with your vehicles. Rangers were very friendly and helpful, neighbors were nice - but not putting this on our list of places we want to return to. Large sites with room for backing in are: 12, 28, 30 and 38 - check satellite images and call the office to confirm, 228-230-4136.

Not a bad State Park. Close to the surprisingly very nice town of Ocean Springs. Great little downtown to walk around.
We were originally in site 23 but asked to move to open site 44. 23 was right across from the rv dump and all its smells.
The sites on the inside of the loop are long and level as compared to the short and unlevel sites on the outside of the loop.
Clean campground and nice camp host.
No playground for the kids though.

Great spot to park and explore the best of what the Mississippi Coast has to deliver.
Clean and easy access right off the busy Highway 90 that connects all the coastal cities.
Park is very clean and quiet. Fairly level pads, most are small for 24ft and under but 37 will allow up to 50ft, be sure to check when reserving your spot. Note: No golf carts can be used and all vehicles must be on pavement at all times. No sewer and fire pit shares with the grill. Also note, 37 is full sunshine, no shade. Most of the outside loop does have partial shade.
Rained daily on our stay, but site remains dry, good runoff.
Really enjoy watching the wildlife. Gators, coons, turtles and birds are all over. Coons seem to very much use to people and will get fairly close to you.
Great fishing pier by the visitor’s center down a piece from the campgrounds that you will want to try out. Very close to all the public beaches.
