Henderson Beach State Park

I absolutely loved this campground. We were here for a week in Mid-February and really enjoyed it. The sites are electric and water only. Dump station available. They sites are gravel and very private with foliage hiding most neighbors and some pull through a hide the road as well. There is laundry and clean bathrooms with showers.... more

I have to admit after reading the last review I was concerned about rats. I inquired at the ranger station when we checked in and was informed that they have had a problem. Our entire stay we never saw one once and we walked a lot throughout the camping loops, on the path through the woods and to the beach. We walked at various times... more

We spent a total of 14 days here and although we liked the proximity to Destin and the beach, we will not be returning. After a few days, we began to notice rats in the vegetation between our campsite and the next site. We brought the issue to the attention of the park ranger who thanked us but said there was nothing that could be ... more

We were in town for a wedding and found this campgrounds to be conveniently close to the venue. The weather is extremely cold for even this Northern Florida City but the warm of the beach nearby and the quiet peaceful camping sites proved to be the perfect fit for us. Are Verizon service was very good and if there was anything that cou... more

We were amazed at our stay. The park was well planned with space and shrubbery in between sites so you had plenty of privacy. All the spots were back in with gravel that appeared very level. You had a picnic table and a double clothesline. The bathrooms were clean and not to far to walk from our site. The boardwalk down to the beach wa... more

We LOVED this site! Our pull through site had nicely raked gravel, with a fire pit! It felt like we had our own yard! The site felt remote and private, but, was conveniently located close to the main strip, which offered restaurants, touristy beach shops, and Walmart (we bought our firewood here for $5/bundle). Because of it's convenie... more

One of the most impressive things about Henderson Beach State Park is the privacy of the camp sites. Sites are spacious and surrounded by trees and dense shrubs. Our back-in site had excellent privacy and space, and many of the pull-throughs were well over 100 feet long. Although there was no sewer at our site, our stay was short enoug... more

What an awesome state park. The layout is wonderful with a limited number of RV sites, around 60 if I remember correctly, and the feeling of privacy is great! If you've never been to Destin it has the most perfect sand in the world (an yes we have been around...Bora Bora for example). You have the conveniences of Destin FL yet with ... more

We love Henderson Beach SP! The sites are wooded with shrubbery, providing your own private oasis near the beach. There is a bit of a walk to the beach from the camping area, over a well-maintained boardwalk. This may be an issue if you have accessibility problems. The beach is pristine - very clean with few crowds. This is truly a tro... more

Date of stay: September 2014 Powdery white sandy beach. I could stop the review here and that would be enough. But I won’t as I am sure you want all the details. :) My spontaneous behavior (when it comes to finding a place to stay) worked out yet again as I was able to get the last site at Henderson Beach State Park for 5 nights ... more
