We spent two nights at Dauphin Island campground. We had shade and convenience. The beach was only a short walk away. The campground does not provide any sort of fire pit or grill. They do allow campers to build their own fire ring and have fires on bare ground. If you plan on cooking out, bring a portable grill or... More

There is an RV section and a tent section. The tent sites have water, electric, picnic table and a fire pit ($25/night). It's a short walk to the beach which is not very crowded. There were times that I was the only one there. It's next to a bird sanctuary and the ferry so you will hear wild life and... More

My husband and I stayed three nights during spring break. We have a 21' van and were given a shady space with some growth around it for privacy. The campground is a 5 minute walk from Fort Gaines which was very interesting. We were also able to walk to the bird sanctuary in about 10 minutes. The staff was nice... More

My family stayed during Spring Break and tent camped. Excellent shading in the entire campground so I imagine that Summer time won't be absolutely miserable. Nice little walk to the beach. The campground is across the street from the Sea Lab-Estuarium which is very cool. Great rock jetty within a short walking distance to do some saltwater fishing. Very clean... More

We stayed here as a dry run before taking the kids... wanted to see how crowded it was, how clean, etc... While the facilities are a bit tired and could use some re-modeling, the bathrooms were relatively clean. We planned in advance so we had a nice camping spot close to the trail that goes to the beach. The spot... More

We love Dauphin island. We are locals and spend lots of time there. We bought a camper this year and have throughly enjoyed staying at the campground. The staff is great, other campers are fun and nice. Generally everyone helps everyone in the park. I never worry about my kids riding their bikes anywhere on the island. Do bring plently... More

My brother and I spent the night here as a second resort to Fort Pickens Campground whose road was rendered useless after Hurricane Isaac hit. I'd been to Dauphin Island once before, to the public beach, and thought it would be a great second - white sands and blue water. Just two years after Katrina, Dauphin Island was proud and... More

This campground is great! No noise for miles, spacious and a short walk to the beach. It has it's own private path to the beach through a pretty wooded area. The beach was beautiful with white sand and lovely water. The staff was amazing! Some of the best customer service I've ever had. When my pickup got a falt, two... More

The multiple poor reviews and remarks had us weary of camping here. We went down for a last family weekend before the kids returned to school, and to show the kids where their mom grew up. When we arrived we were greeted kindly by the staff and given all the usual instructions. We went to our primitive tent site and... More
