Sugar Mill Ruins Travel Park is one of the most beautiful travel parks in Florida! It is nestled in one of the finest natural landscapes left in Florida. It has a family vibe that feels like home. The staff members are friendly and effective at keeping the place running smoothly. The maintenance crew works hard to help all the guests and to keep the grounds maintained. The front desk crew is friendly and knowledgeable. I give them 5 out of 5 stars!

We stayed in one of the cabins at Sugar Mill Ruins Travel Park and were pretty disappointed. Upon check-in, the door key barely worked — it had to be wiggled and forced just right to open. The cabin itself wasn’t clean: sand all over the floors and even on the beds, plus stains on the twin mattress covers. The bathroom water smelled very strongly of sulfur, which was especially tough for me being newly pregnant and sensitive to odors. The fridge only worked off and on, and one of the window panels by the door was broken off and just sitting on the shelf near the TV. On a positive note, the pool and tiki bar area were nice, but overall the cabin itself definitely needs better upkeep and attention.

If there is an RV park in heaven, Sugar Mill Ruins will be it. It’s the only place my wife and I will stay when we come to Florida. The staff is excellent, always smiling and friendly. Kathy, who usually runs the front desk is on top of it . It’s always been a pleasure dealing with her. The place is clean and beautiful. The pool has to be one of the best pools in Florida . We feel safe and secure here . We love that they have the laundromat and extra showers and bathrooms. You can’t go wrong staying here. They even have a good system for Amazon to drop off packages. This place is well designed for Rv living and that’s all there is to it. GB

We stayed here for May while visiting family in the area. We stayed in site 11 with a 42ft fifth wheel. We enjoyed our time, the pool is fantastic, the lake in the back has good fishing, and the staff is very friendly and accommodating. It gets a little soggy when it rains but it's worth it for the jungle-like feel of the campground. We plan to stay again when we're in the area. Thanks again for a fun, memorable month!

My family and I had high hopes for this campsite after hearing rave reviews from friends who had stayed there. However, our experience was far from what we had anticipated. Maybe they had a change in management, as the staff was unfriendly and the place was poorly maintained. The provided flyer was inaccurate and misleading, as some of the activities and facilities they advertised were not available. Additionally, it was unprofessional to close the pool for a private party. And let’s not forget the terrible weather conditions when it rains. The roads are unpaved or graveled and uneven, creating numerous puddles and mud. Other things that just made our experience worse was that they didn’t have hot water for their showers, and please be careful on their electric box’s, since the wires were exposed making it an electrical hazard. Near an our campsite there was a strong smell of gas. This campground seems to have long term residents in the priority. Needless to say, we wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone.

Been here 13 years very beautiful campground,family run,great activities. The lake is beautiful and great trails for biking or golf cart riding all holidays have dj and food with a neat tiki bar are putting in a new laundry mat with new machines. Super little dog park to exercise your pooch!!! The pool is gorgeous and is in the shape of florida and is the largest privately owned shape of fla pool in the state!!! 3 miles to beach. It is a kid and family friendly with security gates for access. Wonderful campground!@

A nightmare I will never forget!! A place I called "home" for 9 years. Was happy at the start of my stay there but over the last couple of years has evolved into a place where I never want to experience again. Water is non drinkable and constantly being shut off for repairs. Sewer stinks terribly! Now, you are being charged for electric, wi-fi that only works occasionally and cable TV that comes and goes like the seasons in a year. Washers and dryers that are only operational if you are one of the lucky ones. You have maintenance people that just like to ride around on golf carts and side by sides and look at what needs to be done but don't want to get off their carts to do their job. They ride around drinking beer or hide outback at the maintenance shed. You have electrical issues that need to be addressed but no licensed electrician to do the repairs properly. The management only offers excuses as to their problems there and if you express your concerns they are ready to evict you on the spot. I witnessed several incidents as to the demise of all that takes place there now. It is one big cover-up for all that has taken place over the years. Going downhill quickly and not enjoyable for a family campground anymore. DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME AT THIS PLACE.!! Shop around for a better place. They are there!! The people that are there now and have been are well aware of all this but don't want to say anything because of the fear of being thrown out and not allowed to return even to visit friends as I was told I could not visit my friends there that I met over the past 9 years. Sounds like a dictatorship campground has evolved here to me. AGAIN, STAY AWAY FROM THIS PLACE!!!

we decided to vacation in Florida for 1 month and settled on sugar Ruins RV park. We found the location very convenient to the beaches which was great. The campground I would rate as not great but just ok. Sites were alittle tight and very dusty. Hook ups were also on the opposite side on my RV. The pool was very good and ammenities were ample . We also found some people were living there full time and didn't make for a clean campground .

quaint little campground with lots of residents or long term renters. very quiet. clean. nice pool. office staff are very helpful. Location is great. you could walk to grocery, drugstore, and dozens of restaurants. Convenient to beachside as well (not far from the bridge on 44)

Great family run campground with great amenities. Staff is pleasant and always ready to help. Sites are gravel/sand but level. Some complained it's tight but we've seen worse. Good power, water and sewer at the site. We did not try the cable but I hear it was good. Wifi was good for the usual surfing but too slow for streaming. There is an upgrade available for that or use your data. The pool and tiki bar are a great place to hang out with lots of loungers. They have a large communal fire pit that was pretty busy on Saturday night. Washroom and showers have been updated and are kept very clean. All in all, we found it to be a great place to camp.
