Busy during sunset, but almost always empty during sunrise. Great, inexpensive heated pool. Clean facilities. Functional Boat Ramps

😍 Nice and quite place to relax!!! It's really family-friendly and pet friendly. Just NOT ON THE BEACH ARE YOUR BELOVED PETS ALLOWED. However they are every where else. Now if they are a service animal then they are welcome. But we had a great time and enjoyed ourselves. Now that we live here in Florida. We can vist this anytime!!!🏖🦀🏝🦐

What a nice location to spend the day. Never to busy but plenty to do. Fishing pier, boat launch, clean restrooms and a nice beach area.

When they reconfigured the parking lot why didn't they put family parking by the beach. It is all for boaters. These people launch a boat and have no need to access their vehicle till they return. Dumb idea!!

jack vanderheyden | May 16, 2020
D Westlake | May 17, 2020

It might be for safety: having kids racing to get back to and from the family car while boaters are backing up, or otherwise engaged, has the potential to ruin an otherwise fun outing.

Is it actually part of the gulf and is it salt or fresh water?

Heather Vanburen | May 17, 2019
Kitty & Cat | May 18, 2019

Where the fresh river water meets and mixes with the salt water from the gulf, is called "brackish" water. It is also an estuary, which is like a nursery for many types of sea life. Estuaries are fragile environments and it is in humanity's best interest to protect them!
