For Henderson Beach State Park: Add to the noise pollution LOUD booming bass music that we could feel in our bones. It started after the helicopters quit and went on well past 9:30 pm. Utterly ridiculous. Make no mistake, the helicopters are continuous all day and flight pattern is directly over the park and the beach. For us the campsites don’t make up for it. We will not return.

For Henderson Beach State Park: Noise is definitely an issue. Helicopters, small aircraft, highway traffic noise. Sirens and loud cars racing kinda ruined the evening by the campfire. Sites are private and spacious. Clean bathrooms and laundry facilities. Campers use same entrance as day use people which is a big problem. If you leave the campground during daytime expect to wait in a long line to re-enter. Day users have to stop and pay fees and the line is often 10-20 cars ahead of you. No way to go around them.

For Henderson Beach State Park: Pros: Beautiful, immaculate park. Spacious, level camp sites with excellent privacy. The facilities are clean and well maintained. Park employees are very helpful and friendly. The beaches are absolutely stunning. Plenty to do outside the park, as it’s centrally located on the main strip (Gulfarium, Airforce Armament museum) Cons: Helicopters. I know, I read the other reviews and said to myself, self, it can’t be that bad….well, it is and it doesn’t stop unless a hurricane comes through or the sun goes down. After 3 days of it, it begins to get to you. I didn’t mind any other noises, just the helicopters, constantly buzzing you at low altitudes. Rats come out at night. Once the sun goes down big rats come out by the dozens. We had 10-11 in the vegetation just outside our fire ring. Don’t leave anything out you wouldn’t want them on. Booking this campground is ridiculously hard. You either have to have someone die and leave their site to you in a will or get extremely lucky and catch a cancellation. Either way, if you can get an opening, don’t hesitate.
