A great park with one major downside

There's no doubt this State Park is beautiful, with its lovely scenery and nice trails. The sites are smallish but not really a problem unless you've got a toad or a big rig. The hookups work, and the wi-fi signal is strong enough. The dealbreaker here is the bathhouse is usable but could use a more thorough cleaning.

We stayed here in a Popup Trailer.

Creole Nature Trail National Scenic Byway - A 105- mile driving and walking tour touching four state and national wildlife refuges and a bird sanctuary. Along the way you can take a chance at fishing, crabbing, shelling, just strolling the beaches, or observing the birds in the largest birding area in the South. You can expect to see beautiful marsh flowers in season, alligators, and marsh animals along the way.

Sabine National Wildlife Refuge (Hwy 27 south, Hackberry) - This 125,000-acre wildlife refuge preserves a large block of coastal marsh. A Visitors Center displays a diorama and exhibits. A one-mile paved nature trail is open to the public.
