"Our family has been coming to this campsite for almost 10 years, reserving the group camp each time.

While we understand the need for these changes, it was disappointing after so many hassle-free visits."

Customer Reviews
The campsite is great. The new rules are a bit much. My family has reserved the group camp for almost 10 years for our family vacation. You have to book 6 months in advance. Never had any issues. This year was different. In years past, we have arrived at the camp as our time frames would allow. No problem However, this year, no one was allowed into the group camp until all parties arrived. My mother was the first of us to arrive. Due to our family not being able to arrive at the same time or day. She was given options. Rent another campsite until all parties arrive or come back when the whole group is there. It was explained to us that due to the actions of others, these are the new rules. It's unfortunate that the few outweigh the many. After all. It's not free to enter Fort Pickens, nor is camping there free.
