Positives:  Near Beaches, good eating places, and a casino.  Level land, nice for walking on trails, bike riding or jogging along the gulf of Mexico.

Negatives: Mosquitos, gnats, and bugs (oh my).  We were here during spring break and some of the campers can get a bit vociferous late into the night (especially after a few too many).  No WiFi Service.  The Beaches are being rebuilt from Katrina, If you want a fully accessible beach within a mile from the front of Buccaneer State Park, you may want to wait for a year.
