Description:
Located on Pensacola Beach this is one of the few RV resorts in the area. It is very popular and busy year round. We have stayed here many times and I decided to provide a review of their services.
In previous stays we had a decent size lot with a little bit of a water (sound) view. This time we stayed in 2 different sites because I had to extend the stay for a business trip.
The first site #12 was barely large enough to park the RV, but it was on an end surrounded by shrubs and bushes, so it had a private fill to it. The sites in this park are pretty small width wise so it was nice to have the foliage around us. We could not park our truck in the site, but there was convenient parking a few yards away.
The second site was #32 located by their rental rooms and close to the road. The road noise during the day was a little bothersome, but at night it was not an issue. This site was also extremely small in length and the RV barely fit in it. There were also Palm Fronds rubbing on the side of the RV.
The park is very conveniently located on Santa Rosa Island and many bars and restaurants are within a very easy walking distance. The park is located on the sound side of the island, but pristine white sand Gulf side beaches are literally across the street. One note, do not invite any of your friends to come visit you in the resort. There is absolutely no parking of ANY vehicles that are not registered at the park and they will tow you. Friends or family will need to park somewhere else and walk to see you. There is no trash pickup and their brochure they hand you at checking says there are convenient garbage collectors around the resort. There are not. They are hidden at best and when I did find one they were mostly full. The resort needs a better way of handling this.
The park itself opened in 2012 so it is fairly new. The site hookups are in pretty good shape except the sewer connections. Of the 3 sites we stayed in previously 2 of them were impossible to connect our sewer to without a rubber gasket (Camco Flexible 3-in-1 Sewer Adapter Hose Seal -Flexible Fitting). If you don't have one of these get one. You will need it.
If you have any needs or questions, do not use the info@ email address. They will rarely answer you if at all. I have had 5 emails go unreturned. However, if you go into the office the staff is friendly and will help you with most things.
The restrooms and showers are clean and kept up to date. There is a nice little beach bar on the premises that offer a full range of cocktails, wines and beers.
Bottom Line:
The location alone makes this a good place to stay. They are pricey, but it is nice not to have to travel off the island. Sites are pretty jammed in, but not uncomfortable. We do recommend this resort if it fits your budget. Prices are substantially higher in the summer.
