    Awesome resort very clean with a great staff. Bonnie was very accommodating with great customer…read moreservice making a trip with our grandsons possible. Tons of activities and good food truck food. Our grandsons gave the funnel fries "a billion stars". We will be back hopefully to bring the entire family!

    We arrived at the resort entry gate around 2pm 5/7/2026 and saw a sign that said call the front…read moredesk to be let in. We called and spoke with a young women named Kaley. I stated we are at the front gate and meeting our family whom was staying there. Kaley stated "someone is in the gate shack." and promptly hung up on me. I got out of my vehicle and walked up to the gate shack to find an older women employee asleep. I said hello excuse me, she snapped awake and said oh I didn't hear you drive up. I said I'm frustrated because I was just hung up on and now I find you asleep out here. She apologized and said it's off season and we're deathly slow. I called the office again and spoke with Kaley again and said we're meeting my family here. Kaley began to question me and stated you need to immediately pay $40 to enter to see your family. We met up with our family and went in to speak with a manager. They stated the managers not here so tough deal with it. We payed the demanded $40 cash for said wristbands, Kaley took the money and said " I can't give you a receipt." Very suspicious is she pocketing the money? ! We went on and visited our family. I then again was absolutely disappointed in the customer service at the bar pool area, we told the bartender what had occurred and she laughed and repeated it's off season and so slow I'm almost asleep too. Absolutely lack luster and sad and devoid of any real positive customer experience. Then the absolute horrific things started to transpire. Were watching 2 life guards hang out at the bar way to long, then go around and sweep debris and remove rain water off things completely oblivious to their actual life guarding duties ie- watching for danger. The drinks and food and amenities were nice except for the bugs and mosquitoes everywhere. Staff need to be trained to have genuine guest service skills and at least pretend to care about there jobs. I feel disrespected, bullied and robbed and just the out right neglect of staff roles is enough to think what the hell? Is this a resort or a very expensive Waffle House with pools. I guess they do whatever they want when the manager isn't there. You can do much better than what we received and the way we were treated by staff. Not a Happy Camper! Campers Beware!! Your on your own in this place ya know cause it's slow and off season. Pathetic absolutely Patheti. I hope employee Kaley enjoys that $40 bucks she stole from our family.

    We had such a wonderful stay at Cozy RV Lodge in Niceville, it truly lives up to its name…read more From the moment we arrived, it felt different in the best way. The owners are incredibly warm and present, you can tell they genuinely care about their guests. We saw them every day, and that personal touch made the experience feel welcoming and safe, not just like another RV stop. The park itself is small and cozy, which we loved. It creates a peaceful, community feel without any of the noise or chaos you sometimes get at larger parks. Traveling with our dog can sometimes be challenging, but not here. The fenced dog area was a huge win,our pup absolutely loved it and felt comfortable enough to play and explore freely. That alone made our stay so much more relaxing. Now, I have to talk about the facilities,because I'm very particular about this. The showers and bathrooms are, without question, the best I've ever experienced at an RV park. They are spotless, thoughtfully designed, and this is key, there's actually space to set down all your things. Anyone who travels regularly knows how rare and appreciated that is. Every detail here reflects care, pride, and intention. If you're looking for a clean, welcoming, and truly comfortable place to stay in the Niceville area, Cozy RV Lodge is a gem. We will absolutely be back!

    We called on the spur of the moment to camp near the Gulf beaches. It took a few phone calls, but…read moreto my surprise a real nice lady named Katie answered the phone. I told her our reason for coming was to celebrate 53rd wedding anniversary. She was able to accommodate us at Cozy Corner. The park is very small, very clean, beautifully manicured, family owned and high on customer service. If we camp in the area in future, I would be happy return guest!!! Thank you!

    This camping resort is wonderful! I am in a tent and my campsite has electricity, a large raised…read moresand spot for my tent, a picnic table, a fire ring and is close to the pool and bathrooms. The resort is very clean and the staff and other campers are very friendly and welcoming. There is a great pool and hot tub, an ice cream shop, a mini store, a fishing pier and the Santa Rosa Sound beach. The resort is quiet at night and is very close to groceries and restaurants. I am so glad I found this great place for my birthday weekend trip!

    I rarely leave negative reviews, but this experience was incredibly disappointing…read more I reserved a specific campsite many months in advance for my birthday. Before arriving, I even received an email confirming that exact site. When I checked in, I was told they had given my reserved site to someone else and moved me to a different spot. The whole reason I booked so far in advance was to secure that particular location, so this completely defeated the purpose of planning ahead. What made the situation even worse was how it was handled. The manager never apologized or acknowledged the mistake. Instead, I was met with an attitude that made it seem like my frustration wasn't justified. A sincere apology and some accountability would have gone a long way. To "make it right," they offered a 20% discount, which honestly felt insulting given that they failed to honor a confirmed reservation on a special occasion. It wasn't about the money--it was about keeping their commitment and treating customers with respect when they make a mistake. Unfortunately, what should have been a memorable birthday started with disappointment because of the park's poor reservation management and lack of customer service. I hope they improve their processes and, more importantly, learn how to take responsibility when they let their guests down.

    This place is so great and we are so impressed with the staff. Kia is our most special staff member…read moreshe so positive and welcoming every time we visit the pool or restaurant. We have enjoyed the family events and the pool vibes keeps us returning time and again. Great RV resort so clean and manicured it makes you feel truly welcomed.

    Brace yourself - this one is gonna be long! We came for two nights while attending a concert at…read morethe wharf, which is located conveniently across the street, but somehow you feel like you're miles from everything (what is that sorcery?) and ended up wanting to sell all of my belongings, quit my job, and move here. I didn't want to go home, and that's the first time that's happened. This campground is BY FAR the best campground I've ever stayed at. Period. They have thought of everything, and I do mean everything. The sites are spacious, you're not on top of each other. You can rent golf carts and e-bikes, or bring your own. They have nature trails, a trail that connects to gulf state park, and several big fenced-in areas big enough for dogs to actually run around and burn energy, unlike other dog parks that just have a small rectangle. Their dog parks also have at least one tree each for shade, as well as a stainless steel built-in water fountain at ground level for the dogs! There's even a dog washing station so you can bathe your furry friends after a day of playing hard! There is a fitness center, a clubhouse for activities that also has two massage chairs with bookshelves, three separate pools (one is for adults only, age 19+.) The main amenities pool is at the very back of the campground and has a full restaurant that serves all three meals a day, as well as a pool bar that has a large assortment of beer, liquor, and frozen drinks. We got a margarita flight for $22 for 4 full-sized drinks, and they were GOOD! You can't take your own drinks or food to the main pool (with a bar and restaurant, why would you want to?) but you can take them to the adult pool and the pool at the welcome center, which also has a big hot tub and a view of the big lake where you can actually go fishing. There are fire pits, rocking chairs, and other comfy seating options at the pools. There is a large splash pad at the main amenities pool, a shaded cornhole area, sand volleyball, basketball courts, pickleball courts, an arcade, a big playground, and daily scheduled activities. If you're bored here, you're living wrong. You can check into this campground and never have to leave for anything. If you forgot something, just check the general store that's right there by the restaurant and arcade. They have it all! I've never been sad to go back home at the end of a trip, but I was this time. I was seriously trying to figure out how I could go home and sell our house and everything in it, quit our jobs, and just come live here. My kids (11 & 15) are going to love this place!
