You can't beat Fort Desoto county park.
It has awesome beaches, canoe and kayak rentals, bike rentals and paths and a old historical Fort for the kids to play on.
It is hard to get reservations and the county residents have first choice, but we have been able to snag reservations when we wanted them.

X2 - it is a beautiful park, but pricey considering it is a county park
(which generally are a bit cheaper). When we were at Fort Desoto a couple of years ago, we noticed they continually had no vacancy signs out but when we walked around, there were always sites vacant - but maybe they were only available for short durations. Check mid week - you might find something - I'm sure your family would really enjoy this beautiful park. Great bicycling and kayaking, as well as bird watching.
