    Loved Rocky Bayou SP so much that we stayed there a total of 9 days, 3 different times in a 2 week period on 8 different campsites. We took last minute cancellations and had to leave the park for 4 different nights for other Destin area campgrounds and Cracker Barrel when we couldn’t stay at Rocky Bayou.
    The place is clean, peaceful and safe.
