Topsail Hill Preserve State Park – États-Unis

Our lodging was at Loop 103 for a duration of five evenings, set amidst picturesque surroundings with a gravel foundation, sufficient seclusion between each spot, and complete amenities. Oddly enough, the tiny lampposts at each site were bothersome, as their glow would seep into the bedroom window during nighttime. However, this minor inconvenience doesn't overshadow the fact that this is a splendid camping spot in Santa Rosa Beach. One can either stroll, cycle or take a shuttle to the beach. The beach itself is spectacular, with its pristine white sands and transparent, shallow waters. The Park also offers numerous sandy trails for leisurely walks, cutting through serene pine forests. A faint buzz from the nearby highway traffic is always present. The Park serves as a tranquil haven amidst a densely populated region. Proximity to shopping, dining and tourist attractions is an added advantage. We made two trips to Destin for meals. The high prices are attributed to the inflow of tourists, which is to be expected. We certainly look forward to revisiting.

We only lodged for one night, but the experience was top-notch, earning a five-star rating. However, the speed bumps were a bit of an issue as they caused significant shaking. They didn't seem to affect cars or electric bikes, but for some reason, they were quite problematic for our Class A RV. We're considering a return visit, though. We were assigned to site 136, which was a pull-through spot. However, we had to maneuver twice due to a tree that could interfere with our slide if not correctly positioned. So be cautious! Each spot in our loop was surrounded by trees, contributing to the appeal of the park. We also received several cable channels without needing a cord, and Verizon cell service was readily available.

The sign-up process was successful. The camping area was mediocre. The sites were nearby. Will was of no help. Mobile reception was poor. It's a bit shabby considering the cost.

We lodged at this place for a trio of nights in the early part of May, 2023, with the cost being a mean across our duration of stay. Our accommodation was in the Weeping Willow Loop, which was somewhat cramped due to the trees and the neighboring site was uncomfortably close to the rear end of our trailer. However, I was just relieved to secure a spot here. If a future visit was in the cards, I'd target an area in the Pampass Loop, which was quite impressive. I wasn't particularly fond of the spots lining Pampass Grass Blvd, especially the ones with lower numbers. They lacked any semblance of privacy or greenery. Nevertheless, the main attraction here is the beach! They offer an excellent tram service for those without bicycles or for when walking becomes too strenuous due to the heat. It was a pleasant park to take our canine for a stroll, with numerous loops and a lovely area near the bungalows and cabins. These would be an exciting rental option for families! The beach was absolutely breathtaking! They also had a swimming pool! I was fortunate enough to have the pool all to myself one afternoon. There was a charming gift shop and a cafe serving coffee and beer. They even hosted live music on the patio one evening! Despite being a bit steep for non-locals, the overall stay was quite enjoyable, especially the beach. Wow!

This is among our favorite five state parks in Florida, which is quite a statement considering the incredible parks Florida offers. It's a full-service campground nestled in a stunning coastal forest. Pristine white sandy beaches are a highlight, with easy access to Route 30A. What's there not to love? The campground has several different sections; we lodged in section 103. The majority of the sites are concrete, with some featuring crushed stone. All sites in this section offer semi-privacy, thanks to the dense vegetation. Other sections are also lovely, but the sites are more exposed. All utilities are excellent, including decent water pressure. Cable TV is available, with approximately 100 channels. We didn't test the Over-The-Air TV, but the power supply was reliable with no voltage drop. Both Verizon and AT&T provided fast enough internet for streaming.The beach is undoubtedly the main attraction. It's about a mile from the campground and day-use area, so it's not overly crowded. There's an hourly shuttle from the campground to the beach, but if you're planning a long stay, a bike is the ideal mode of transport. Besides the beach, there are several fantastic trails and dune lakes that are worth exploring.Just beyond the campground, a bike path extends along Route 30A, passing through Seaside and ending at Rosemary Beach. Don't miss out on Route 30A, especially the food trucks (which are actually Airstreams) in Seaside. If you prefer more urban areas, head towards Destin.The campground store is managed by a concessionaire and is well-stocked. It includes a fantastic coffee shop and offers several draft beers. They host live music events on Mondays and also rent bikes. The campground is well-staffed with work campers, ensuring that everything is well-kept and clean. The staff is incredibly friendly and professional. Don't hesitate to book a stay at this campground.
