One of our favorite places to go.Love the peace and quiet.
Then why the 2 1/2 stars?
The worst campground on earth. Tight spaces, arrogant rude staff, smoke gets in RVs, barking dogs, and sketchy campers.
We just stayed at Davis Bayou State Park in Ocean Springs Mississippi. It was the worst camping experience that we have ever had. We were with 2 other RV campers and we were all tense over getting a ticket or warning over nit picky things like your tire not completely on the on the pavement or parking perpendicular on you lot because not enough room for your 1 vehicle to fit the drive. All 3 of our campsites got a warning and we seriously tried to accommodate them. One of the host was very rude and the Park Rangers were very rude. It was the most stressful camping experience we have ever had. We are not young people, we are all senior citizens. Thank you for making our Memorial Day weekend so much fun….we left a day early because of no common sense. We WILL NOT be back.
