Ft Desoto

Question

I stayed there last year and had a great time. We were on an interior pull through site that was huge, but I was jealous of the people on the water. We are looking at going back but I can't remember which waterfront sites are best. I know a lot of them have a seawall, and some are fairly blocked by the mangroves? For those of you who have stayed do you have any waterfront site recommendations that are open to the water?

I am in Japan on business trip right now but PM as a reminder. I have a map that I graded the sites and I can share that with you when I get home next week.  We were on 216 last year and it was great

Here you go, sites 165 to 205 on the outside are really nice, there are others but these I vouch for.Pinellascounty Ft. Desoto

I think I remember 215-216 being pretty good as we stayed in 171 last year which is right across from them.  I know there are a couple on the 200 side heading back toward the bend that are nice I just didn't write down the site numbers when I was there.  I was too busy having fun!!

The Campground Map linked by Tachdriver should help. Note the mangroves, they do block the water view a bit, some sites more than others. Still, any site at Fort DeSoto is a pretty good deal.

Here is my map.  I only graded the sites in the one section that we use.  4 &amp; 5 rating are best.  Last year we stayed on 216 and this year we are on 218.
