PRIMITIVE CAMPING
l HUGH S. BRANYON BACKCOUNTRY TRAIL
Nestled among tall pines, scrub oaks and 15 miles of trails is the addition of the primitive outpost campsite. Reminiscent of a Huck Finn adventure, this amenity hosts three individual sites, constructed with canvas tents supported on rustic hardwood floors and roped together with framed recycled downed trees. Take your pick from the Bonanza, Duke or Alamo. Each includes comfy nylon cots to accommodate four people per site, six-guest maximum with an additional tent. An old-fashioned pump sink is centrally located for cleanup after a fun evening of grilling hotdogs, burgers and roasting marshmallows around the campfire. No need to cut your own wood as the Gulf State Park stocks each campsite personally for your visit. The park’s camp store, swimming pool, bike rentals and bathhouse are accessible to all campers. » Located in the Hugh S.
