    If you have older teens I would recommend Paradise Park, they can walk to the beach and do their own thing. Bayleys has all the bells and whistles as far as amenities, very busy, lots and lots of kids but your teens will not be bored. Paradise Park is more quiet but still has enough amenities to keep everyone happy. Both campgrounds are clean & well run We've been to both and enjoyed them for what they offer.

    Also check out hid'n Pines family campground, very similar to Paradise Park.

    Hope this helps,
    Mike

    We love Bayleys, it is huge and has everything but you need to drive or ride to the beach and the center. Parishes is in the middle of it all, it is a little more cramped than some. Wild Acres is another one you might want to look at, we can walk to the beach and center from there.
