The campground is specifically designed for groups ranging from 10 to 40 people and provides a rustic camping experience with a large communal fire circle and picnic tables. The site is located on Boat Launch Road adjacent to pavilion #5, where campers have access to restroom facilities. The campground's location provides excellent access to the park's trail system and a small boat launch, making it ideal for groups interested in exploring the coastal bayou ecosystem. The area is within short walking distance to the Gulf of Mexico and offers opportunities for wildlife observation and nature study. Parking is limited, so carpooling is recommended for larger groups.
