Thank you for the awesome and very recent video of Ft DeSoto! I got lucky for the 2nd time and found a site in area 1 for solo camping this coming Father's Day weekend :) That's a cool campground and North beach is so nice too.

@@DownsizingMakesCents right. We are not in that county.
We have been to this park but did not camp here. Came down for a visit with some friends when we considered moving to The Villages. Spent the day here. The park is really nice. We enjoy our time. The sites look really nice. I remember the wildlife and trails being very nice as well. Looks like nice a nice bath house to. Overall a nice clean park with plenty to do and not far from the city either. If I remember right don't you have to pay to go over a bridge to get there? I might be thinking of another park. Nice review.

There is a toll. 3. But it was worth it. I actually don’t mind paying extra for this county park. We are at our second “must see” state park that I wouldn’t go back to.
Welcome to Pinellas county.
