This was a great option for us! The host was super nice, the area was clean, and we had everything we needed! Would return 100%! Be aware, however, you will have to use your own bathroom/shower on your rig. (there is onsite sewage/water/electric, but no bathhouse) Also, no onsite laundry. Otherwise, we enjoyed it!

Weekend Trip to Ho Hum RV Park

Great park! Went for a quick weekend just to see the area. We live in gulf breeze and have had our eye on the Carabelle/st. George island area for a while on our “to explore” list. We got to the park right at sunset and we were still greeted by campground host. She was quick to show us where to go and asked if we needed anything. The park is small, but it has one of the best views of anywhere we have stayed! It’s an incredibly quiet stretch of the gulf, tons of fishing, and surrounded by forest parks. Would absolutely come back here. We have a 37’ 5th wheel and our pull through had plenty of space and full hookups. Easy to get in and out of the park. Not a whole lot on property, but we don’t ever need anything other than a place to park! Awesome spot… we’ll be back!

RV site was nice with stone pad. We had water and electric hook up and were able to use one of his dump stations before we left. It was quiet at night and about 8 miles from a cute beach 🏖️. Definitely had a country feel being off a dirt road.

Kai and Lisa were very wonderfully accommodating hosts! Their community was devastated during the hurricane so the beaches were not available for swimming. However, the birdwatching was wonderful! They recommended multiple other options that we were able to enjoy. We chose Cedar Key Island and the 2nd Street Cafe (Steemers) where the seafood was excellent! We wlook forward to our next stay!
