The Cabins at Gulf State Park

10/10 Excellent
"We enjoyed our stay at the cabins in the park. The cabin was updated, clean and comfortable. Loved the trails and rode our bikes quite a bit. Took advantage of the guided hike (more like a stroll) but learned a lot and enjoyed it. The restaurant in the park is also good and convenient. Would book again."

"Room was great. Big. Clean. The bed was super noise everytime you moved. Michelle was great to chat to before we left clearwater with the hurricane coming to get info from. When we showed up at 8pm 2 guys were working the front desk. The one with the Carhart jacket on was not helpful. Didn't give us any breakfast info, elevator direction, wifi info, nothing. When I called down to see if restaurant was open they told me they had no phone number for them theyd have to walk over. Really I did a simple Google search for the ph # and called they couldve put me on hold and did that customer service for me."
