Coastline RV Resort & Campground

Stayed in their Campground for 2 nights as Resort next door was full. They forgot to mention construction work ongoing behind site! Not much shade as the area in trees is for long term residents. Oh yea, campground occupants/kids not allowed to use Resort pool either. Highway noise is minimal and showers/grounds are kept clean. No fire pits. They have the Pesky Pelican grill next door that serves usual fried foods, beer, wine, no spirits. We recommend Lynn’s Quality Oyster bar about a mile down by the waterfront.

Coastline has a resort side and a campground side. We stayed in the resort side which is more expensive and nicer but they’ve really fixed up the campground side over the past couple of years. The resort is an attractive park with hotel style bathrooms. Individual toilets and showers all of which are tiled. There is a small but very clean pool. The clubhouse has sofas and a full kitchen with a screened in porch with fans. It was hot so we had happy hour on the screened porch every night. Inside the clubhouse is a small basic gym. Music (good music) played outside and inside the bathrooms. Most all sites (even in the back) have at least a sliver of a view of the water. The sites are long and level with the dreaded white gravel. There is a brick patio with a separate parking area for the car. Spacing is decent with some sites having better spacing than others. There is no privacy. We were in the back so traffic noise was negligible but it would be distracting up closer to Highway 98. Directv worked fine as did the cable. There is a pier across busy Highway 98. Once you darted over, it was fun to watch people fishing and even see dolphins. The WII FI was disappointing. Sometimes it worked, most times it didn’t. The biggest problem are the water sprinkles. They run every night and leave water marks on the car and RV. There is no way to avoid them. To make matters worse, there isn’t any grass to speak of it’s mostly weeds or dirt. If these couple of negatives were fixed, it would make the price point more appealing.

This campground was great for the 2 nights we stayed there. We stayed on the sister side (much better views). We splurged a little by staying here, but the view and the bathrooms made it worth it. The AT&T service was EXCELLENT! I was getting 54 ping on our MOFI which rides off of AT&T towers. My straight talk phone was getting 3 bars.

We stayed here for 4 nights before we went to St George Island Campground. It was a very nice campground with level sites, paver patio, wonderful view of the bay, very clean restrooms, laundry and clubhouse. We visited the National Estuarine Center, Apalachicola, and drove over to St George Island a few times. We didn’t find any restaurants that were very good but they do have raw bars and micro brews in Apalachicola. We stayed in a site on the roadway which had some road noise. I would stay here again.

After a beautiful, despite construction stops along way, drive, pulling into Coastline RV Resort & Campground I was immediately impressed with bright, cleanliness of campground. The office is meticulous, Patty was friendly and welcoming. Would have enjoyed staying longer, yet only 2 nights were available. Site #36 was "next door" campground a mere 800' down road. Three rows in from beach/road side. LONG, packed, crushed gravel, pretty darn close to 100% level parking, with ample space for additional parking. Large concrete pad with new picnic table, beautiful landscaping (behind this site was construction area for coming pool area). Clean, easy access to all hook ups,(slight stretch for sewer and elec hook up if you pull all the way into parking space). Really enjoy the no parking lot lights in campground, the stars were amazing at night. Bathhouse at "sister camp site" is passcode locked, entry with two each woman and men;s LARGE bathrooms with shower, found clean and tidy. 2 each small and slightly "older" compared to rest of campground, coin operated washer and dryers. $2/each per load. Medium setting on dryer was HOT, use caution selecting temp. Worked just fine.
I would absolutely come back~
Only noise was road traffic and crickets at night~

Stayed a month in June to take advantage of their monthly rate.

Pros:
Ocean view
Tree area next to campground
Close to St. George Island, Apalachicola National Forrest, Apalachicola and many more beaches
Lots of things to do near by from restaurants to hiking to shopping to fishing
Friendly staff
Clean and spacious bathhouse with laundry
Concrete pad on site
Cell service is decent (We worked daily using cell signal, with a cell booster, from RV with minimal problems — just a slow period every once in a while)

Cons:
Bugs!!! Bring a screen room if mosquitos like you!
No good place to walk your dog that doesn’t have a lot of car traffic
Noise from road
Not much shade
Campground doesn’t have a pier
