Destin full hookup and beach?

Thanks for the heads up guys. We are still trying to decide where we want to go.

Stayed here years back,Never was impressed with the place...definitely not a resort by any means,yet charge huge daily rates for waterfront....C

We've stayed at HoHum and it didn't feel as crowded as that pic makes it look. But then again, we don't go to a place at the height of tourist season.

Beach front sites at HoHum, east on the panhandle in Carabelle.

Holy Sardines in mustard sauce Batman. More power to you for being able to deal with that. It would have been too tempting to set a programmable remote to the guy in the class A' TV and switch his channels while he was watching it. The day I have to do that is the day I stay home, or stay at a beachfront hotel.

Camp Gulf is nice, but a little cozy.

I found that most Florida beach front "resorts" are tight. In the beach front sites here you can't even open your awning.

Agreed. Camp Gulf's beach front spots were the same (the rest of the park isn't this tight). But, the beach front spots are also not full hookups and they don't allow pets. Neither were an issue for me, but the OP did mention wanting full hookups.

We could only open awnings because we lucked into having a motorhome on our front who pulled in. It meant we both pushed to the far outside of our spots and it gave us a bigger shared space. Otherwise, the site wan't much wider than my dual opposing slides of our bunkhouse.
