Really memorable experience camping there. You find yourself surrounded by wildlife and wildlife enthusiasts. If it weren't for the brightline trains going through every 45 minutes it would be a tremendous spot to camp but it kind of spoils it.

Not a very big campground but sufficient. The campground has a small dog park. Enjoyed our last minute stay. We did not have reservations and they accommodated us.

I’m just here to walk around nature… it was a 5 stars prior that new upgrade. It saddens me. I enjoy it until perhaps one day this wildlife won’t exist In florida for the least. I’ll pray it will remain as is. I saw yesterday and today more ciment paved path, but further from the RV park, a new wood bridge and a lot of construction machinery, sadly pulling out tree from ground- I heard for a new bike trail. It’s heartbreaking to see those alligators, pups and other wildlife to have their natural habitat to be destroyed. The more I look the less I see those places 😕

this is our 2nd year spending a couple weeks here in January. we absolutely love it and will be back next year for a longer stay. The walking path is paved and 4 miles into the swamp. there is also a couple miles of paved paths through the camping park for bikes and walkers. Kayaks and bikes to rent at a very reasonable price. pickle ball court and dog parks. picnic pavilions everywhere. the camping spots are large with full hook ups. right now it is $29 a night. you just cannot beat that price. close to lots of beautiful beaches with free parking and life guards. close to everything else you could possibly need. Great area. security locked gates at night. I like to go shelling and make things from my finds. there are lots of apple snail shells here. so I made a tree for the office, it's on the mantel.

Wonderful people and accepts good condition older RVs. The ladies at the office were so wonderful and helpful. The gentlemen doing maintenance were friendly and considerate. The showers were free and hot. I loved the peace there. No loud noises, plenty of walking and the dog park is awesome. I loved walking at night. They do get booked up during the winter so check early.

Nice place. Quiet. Lots of wildlife. Nice bike trail. Clean showers and laundry facility. We would stay there again.

Tried to get a campsite here. The lady in the office was not friendly at all. Wouldn’t let us rent a full hook up site she said we couldn’t with our van. Told us that we couldn’t sleep in our van at a tent site either. Told her that we have a tent she said that she didn’t have any available. They are 1st come 1st serve tent sites after 1pm we were there at 1pm. I have never felt so unwelcome at a campground before this encounter.

Mary and Wendy in the office are fantastic at what they do! Friendly and caring. We are coming back in May to stay for a while. I can’t remember nicer staff at any place else we stayed. Dealing with them is a pleasure.

This place was a nice, cheap place to rest for the night on our way south. It is a little hard to get to this destination, I imagine it would be hard with a big rig to get through downtown to this location. Beware of alligators and snakes here. There were showers and laundry facilities available here. A huge area for dogs to play. There was also some trails around the campground to explore. It only cost us about 28$ to stay the night which is reasonable. The campsites are very close to each other so you are right next to all your neighbors which is unfortunate sometimes! But overall a nice place to stay.

We absolutely loved this place!!! It was a hidden gem. Reasonable, clean, friendly and even saw a few baby alligators. We felt very safe and loved the area, one of the better parks we've been to on our trip across the country.
