Good to see it is still here. Visited in summer of 2001 or 2002 and stayed at The Island Place, celebrating my late father's retirement. Came here exploring the shell mounds, as I was an archaeology buff. The rest of the family put up with me. Good to see hurricanes have not washed it away or that it has been rebuilt.

Did not know what to expect. The closer we got the less road we had, finally we were on a dirt track cut through trees covered with Spanish Moss hanging down, it was pretty neat. We still had no sight of the Shell Mound, but there was a parking area with stairs heading through trees, so we followed the path. We came to the sign board, finding out that we had arrived and were standing atop of our destination...LOL We enjoyed reading about the mound and then we strolled to the shore enjoying the peace and tranquility. It was well worth our time.

Small but lovely and peaceful nature trail. Includes several placards to explain the history of shell mound and some of the flora and fauna. Basically 2 small hiking trails. Nearly all flat except the shell mound itself. Includes a fishing pier.

This is a really neat park and great observation deck. The mound is so big that you can see remnants on the ground as you are driving at the back of the park, by the boat ramp. The bugs are BAD! You seriously cannot venture outside of your vehicle without DEET 40% or some serious. You have been warned!

Very quiet and peaceful. Great gulf views and lots of birdlife. A good place to launch a kayak at high tide.
