Owners very accommodating and enjoy the evening get together at the pavilion. Only complaint is allowing large RVs (large diesel bus) to pull in at 1am in the morning which I’m sure woke up the whole park as it did us. Sure it was not condoned by the owners.

Overall Rating Facility Rating Restroom Rating Appeal Rating Our initial stay was for just four nights but we ended up staying 10. Bay Hide Away was one of the best places we stayed at during our 3 month trip. It is ideally located for New Orleans, Gulf Coast towns, the last white sand beach heading west on the gulf coast, a casino and the Stennis Space Center is a must to see - just a short drive from the park. Bay Hide Away is well kept with clean restrooms and laundry facilities. They have a nice BBQ patio area and rec center, a clean swimming pool, playground for children and if you're in to frisbee golf, their course is one of the most challenging you'll find. There's a pond on the property to enjoy. The owners are friendly and very helpful with any needs that may arise, as they are former full time RV'ers so they know what is expected of a campground. They were also former raters for Good Sam so they know how to keep a park looking good. If there was a 10 star rating we would certainly hand it to them.

Appeal Rating We only did a last minute overnight after some repairs. The owners were very accommodating when we called with an unsure timeline. We arrived just after office closing hours but they came right out, took us to our site, and invited us to a steak feed they were having. It’s a nice spot with plenty of room and quiet surroundings. I can see why people would use this for a snowbird sight.

Overall Rating Facility Rating Restroom Rating Appeal Rating Have been staying here every winter for 7 years, usually 4- 4 1/2 months. We usually use a pull-through on one of the ends. Great place to stay longterm. This winter has been very wet, so there has been a lot of puddles in the gravel roads. This place is set back of the road and is somewhat quiet. Everyone is very friendly and the activities are fun. The new owners have already made some changes and plan to do more. Although we do not have pets, the new dog park is great to see used. We get together once a week to socialize and catch up on one another or announcements about the park.

Overall Rating Facility Rating Restroom Rating Appeal Rating First time here was 2008. Been here in a travel trailer, truck camper, motor home and a fifth wheel. The park is off the main road and surrounded by pine trees. The clubhouse is used for activities and once a month the owners cook up a great meal fior the whole park. There are only 40 sites, so it is a small friendly village where everyone knows your name. There are many activities you can sign up for, like visiting New Orlean, luncheons, bingo. Grocery stores and others are near by. Two casinos are close by and many others in Biloxi and Gulfport. The best things about this park it is quiet and very clean. Away from the hustle and bustle, I feel extremely safe here. I am here five months as a snowbird.

We love our snowbird family and the fact that you came here for the first time in 2008, is really a testimony of the kind of park we have here. You have been a huge part in making this park a community and making all of the guests that have traveled thru over the years feel welcome and at home.
We feel this is a pretty special place ourselves and couldn't be happier to share it with all of you. We especially appreciate how all of you long time returning guests welcome anyone that is new whether they are staying for the winter or passing thru for a few days, you treat everyone the same. We are blessed to have such a great group!

Overall Rating Facility Rating Restroom Rating Appeal Rating This was our maiden voyage with our 27’ travel trailer and we also brought our Labrador with us. We drove almost 700 miles to be a snowbird and I think we are hooked and probably spoiled by our stay at Bay Hide Away. The recent addition of a dog park is awesome for the dogs to really stretch their legs and be off leash. The park is flat and a nice area to walk your dog or your own personal exercise, 2 laps is a mile. The bathhouse is clean as well as all the rest of the facility. The owners have activities scheduled throughout the week for the campers so it’s easy to get to know your fellow campers and learn about the best places to eat and visit. Everybody is very friendly and most are repeat snowbirds, so the owners are doing something right! The owners are very hands on and quick to give you a “hello” and make you feel welcome. The location is a short drove to larger cities, but this area is very quiet and relaxed while still offering lots of local antique shops to tour. The pool and playground look great as well. You can be as busy or relaxed as you desire at Bay Hide Away.

Thank you very much for taking the time to review our park, we really appreciate it.
We are thrilled that your maiden voyage of snowbirding turned out to be a good one and that Bay Hide Away was able to play a part in that. We feel that this is a special place and it is our guests that make that happen, they have really built a community over time and made this a home away from home. Whether they have been coming for years, or are newbies, stay a few weeks, a few months, or passing thru for the day, everyone is made to feel welcome and part of the family. There are no strangers at Bay Hide Away!
We hope that you decide to return again and of course will welcome you with open arms!

Facility Rating Restroom Rating Appeal Rating The new owners had just taken over 3 days prior to our arrival. This area had received a lot of rain thus every thing was wet and muddy. Could not step out of the coach or set up the "business" end of the coach without your feet sinking in the mud. We were supposed to stay 4 nights but got tired of dealing with the mud so left after 2 nights. The laundry room was clean and all machines were working. The bathroom/shower room was also clean. Would not say it was big rig friendly but the new owners made a comment as to things they needed to do to improve that. We probably would not return to this park.

Thank you very much for taking the time to post a review, they are very important to us. We definitely had a tough month or so with the rain, it had been the wettest on record for November and December. We are sorry you chose to leave early, after the many days of rain it actually cleared up and we had sunshine for about 10 days straight which really helped dry things out.
Our sites are 30' wide and many 70' long, we have a 42' class A and although we had to pay attention driving in, have no problem navigating the park roads.
As you stated, we did just take the park over and though we feel it's a great park we do have ideas of ways we can improve our guests experience. We hope that you will reconsider and welcome you back for a visit if you are in the area again.
Safe travels,

Thank you for taking the time to review our park, we really do appreciate it.
It may seem that our roads our tight because they are lined with trees, but all of our roads are one way and are 14' wide which is a sufficient width for all RV's on the road today. We have a 42' Class A with a car and are able to navigate the park without a problem. There are some trees around one curve on the end that you have to pay attention to, but a 45' rig can make it pulling a Suburban.
Our sites are 30' wide from pedestal to pedestal and some of them are 80' long sometimes because they are long, they seem to not be as wide as they actually are. We haven't had an RV that we couldn't put in our park because it was too long.
Again, thank you for visiting and taking time to rate our park.

Appeal Rating I should preface my review with the fact that there has been a lot of rain and the campground is very wet. I am sure that in better weather, this would be a more pleasant campground. We have a dog and I am not enjoying taking my dog out and trying to find somewhere where he does not have to stand in mud or water to do his business. I see that they have tried to give this park some personality and appeal. There is disc golf and a cute light house. But, the standing water and mud are miserable. We stayed 2 nights while visiting family in the area. The staff was helpful. A man led us to our site. We did not use the restrooms. The wifi is very slow and there is no cable TV. Channels available over the air are fair. Some of the stations break up, while others have strong signals. I understand that the whole area has drainage issues in the rain, but it still does not help me like being in standing water.

Thank you for taking the time to review our park we really appreciate the feedback.
We are sorry that the water was an issue while you were here. Sometimes it just rains ducks and chickens and causes "foul" weather. ) We are at a 13' elevation and generally when it does rain in this part of the country, it just rains a lot all at once and it takes a couple of days to drain off, that's just the nature of the beast.
The good news is that we have 260 days of sunshine a year and we would love to invite you back to visit the park another time so that you can experience some of our amenities, including our newly added dog park.
Thank you again for the review.

There were many RVers that were there for the winter & they were friendly & welcoming. The owner & his wife bend over backwards to make sure that your experience is great. We had a back-in site & were very pleased with it (site 32) Being new to extended RVing I found staff & neighbors extremely helpful with any problems.
The park is very clean & the bath house was a great place for getting a hot shower in a clean place. The park is far from the road & very quiet. We plan to go back next year. They were wonderful.

Overall Rating Facility Rating Restroom Rating Appeal Rating This is a beautiful RV park. The owners are very friendly and helpful. Our only concern is the gravel roads into the park are very narrow. With a big RV you need to be careful manuvering to your spot - but you can get there. The owners keep the trees and bushes trimmed and the gravel road maintained well. The pads are gravel, but very level. While it was too cool to swim, the facilities and the pool look great. We definitely would stay here again.

Appeal Rating We have a 33' fifth wheel and stayed here 7 nights because we wanted to explore New Orleans about 40 minutes away. The owners are very friendly and inviting, and included us in the various activities (trip to horse track, bingo). This small park is clean and neat, but the gravel sites and roadways needed work, especially since the rain is very slow to drain. The laundry facilities are good and the meeting room and fireplace patio are nice. Pool not heated. No cable, but the price was very reasonable.

Overall Rating Facility Rating Restroom Rating Appeal Rating I would like to start off by saying the couple that runs/owns/manages this campground were wonderful people, and treated us very well. We had two campers traveling, and they did provide us with two pull-through sites which was huge after traveling all day. We were a little disappointed that the sites were a gravel material, and there are hard gravel roads leading to the sites which made it really nasty when it rains. I know we can't control mother nature, just trying to set the right expectations. Rates were a little high, our opinion, after staying at the same rated Good Sam campgrounds during our trip. There is no cable TV, for example. The pool and bathroom facilities were top notch, in our opinion. This campground is really quiet, which was another huge plus ! People around us were very nice.
