Resort guests enjoy exclusive amenities including a saltwater swimming pool with splash pad, clubhouse with kitchen facilities, pickleball courts, putting green, and playground. Modern bathhouses with private shower suites serve the resort area. The main campground features 11 air-conditioned bathhouses with handicap-accessible showers distributed throughout, along with laundry facilities. A camp store adjacent to the Nature Center stocks food, beverages, camping supplies, firewood, and Gulf State Park souvenirs. Additional amenities include a swimming pool, tennis and pickleball courts, horseshoe and volleyball courts, and direct access to 28 miles of paved trails connecting the park's natural areas.
