The Gulf around this area is gorgeous! Excellent place to go scalloping- though you'll want to get in right away when season starts, otherwise the grasses are pretty picked through.

We love this property and the lake is great. Nearby are good stores and bait shops and the neighbors are quiet and respectful. We just spent a week here and how relaxing. Our dogs love it too. The lot is shaded most of the time and the deck is awesome.

The lot is great. We love the privacy and quiet with good fishing and views. We were there during Halloween and got to watch the trick or treaters walk by just before dark. We are already planning to go back.

Weekend Trip to Dead Lakes RV Park and Campground

I've stayed here twice now and I will say under the new management it is a complete 180 from last time. The park is actually kept up with. They were having a farmers market when we showed up. It is super quiet and priced fair. Only issue is they double booked my spot but they had it taken care of within minutes.

I loved the property. The lot is mostly shaded and the dock/deck is wonderful. It was quiet and semi private. Remember to bring a four wheel drive and at least 30' of water hose with a filter (city water) if you plan to drink. Jennifer was awesome and checked in on me at least twice. I will definitely be booking again.
