    Want to see the Louisiana wildlife up close and personal until you say....damn where is my…read morecrossbow, taser or holy snikeys runnnnnn? Well then this is the place for you. In all seriousness this is a great wildlife refuge and just be alert! There is a parking lot, bathrooms for your first break on the road if you are headed along the map trip and plenty of outdoor walking opportunities. Please remember your bug spray but, even the deep woods off won't help you; I mean the mosquitoes seem to enjoy the extra deet in it. While they were eating me alive I could almost hear them say.."oooh is this deet in there because I just love me some deet?" You want to go to the right of the sign and start walking which will lead you on the trails= loop, into lookout towers, seeing grassy marsh land, alligators, plants, birds, etc. The nature out here is inspiring and even though it was a steamy Louisiana temperature it was still worth it. The lady at the starting point told us this is where you see the biggest gators but, we didn't see any unfortunately since we were getting eaten alive by mosquitoes but the scenery tempted me to keep going. This is a well kept nature trail/park and the grass was mowed but, unfortunately there was a dead alligator that was stinking up the first part of the trail. Make sure you wear long pants, long sleeve shirt, bring water, wear walking shoes and come ready to sweat and endure!

This trail is so beautiful with different kind of birds and gators and it was Christmas Day , we had the trails scattered across more than 100 miles all to ourselves. This is such a a gem . The long board walks in the swamps amid different birds , turtles and gators was amazing. This trail starts from the town of sulphur and runs more than 150 miles looping all the way through swamp lands to the sea at holy beach and Rutherford beach. Take out at least 6hours from your itinerary for a leisurely trip through the trails. If you rush through you will miss all the exotic things it has to offer. Keep yourself informed from one of the visitor centers near lake Charles Cameron etc.

It's a must stop if you are doing the trail or if you just need a quick bathroom break off the interstate. Will was working behind the desk during our stop and was extremely enthusiastic about the trail and culture of the area and was very helpful in providing info. I was very entertained by the interactive displays;) My favorite was the music station ....yes I was a big kid "playing" the instruments but I enjoyed every minute. It's an exhibit with different musical instruments with a choice of Zydeco or Cajun music . Once you choose which genre you want to hear, background music starts playing. It's up to you to bring the song to life by "playing" the different instruments: mandolin, washboard, accordion etc. Kids or adults, it's fun ;) Here you can also smell popular Cajun spices , peek inside a pelican's mouth, hear how common Cajun words and phrases are pronounced , take home a recipe and even try on clothes for a photo opp. Several exhibits also cover the wildlife and plants you will likely see on the trail. Everything is very well done! Definitely worth a stop.

    Very small state park, but I somehow like it a lot better than Galveston Island SP because it is…read moreless crowded. I read on everywhere to beware of the mosquitoes. I surprisingly didn't have to deal with any mosquitoes. What was very annoying was the plethora of flies. I sprayed myself and my dog, Sneakers in deet spray because they were relentless landing on us. Park staff was nice and pretty much hands off. I checked in and bought a magnet all from the comfort of my vehicle. I don't think you can walk inside the park HQ. There's only one trail which is under a mile long. It's a boardwalk that goes over marsh swamp with blue crabs walking below. Sneakers had a blast looking at the crabs. I had to stop him a few times from jumping down below to eat them. The parking is plentiful. I brought a picnic blanket, an inflatable dog bed, a small camping table, and my 2015 Yelp towel so Sneakers and I could eat snacks while watching the waves come in. It was very relaxing and peaceful. We both fell asleep on the shore until we were abruptly woken up by a family feeding the birds. It clearly states in the park map not to feed in the birds, but people are always out to break the rules. The water wasn't cold, but lukewarm. I saw several needles buried in the sand in various areas of the beach. Park rangers could do a better job at cleaning it up, but I'm sure they're more busy handling their day to day. I think Sneakers had a great time at Sea Rim with me. He got in the water and was swimming a bit until he got too scared to go into deeper water. Entry was free with the TX Parks Pass otherwise it would have been $3 which my friend thought that was too much money. It's not, but to each their own opinions. I had fun and will be back!!

    We really enjoyed our stay. Park staff was friendly and gave great information. We loved our…read morebeach walk and successful fishing. Quiet nights to relax despite monster mosquitos. Take bug spray!
