We're beyond excited for the grand opening of Palm Breeze Luxury RV Resort and have already booked our stay for 2025! The amazing amenities, combined with the family-friendly and pet-friendly atmosphere, make it the perfect getaway for everyone. The reservations team was incredibly friendly and helpful, and the new management company is doing a fantastic job. We can't wait to experience everything this resort has to offer!
Love this place. Love the woods , always see critters along the creek. Campsites are clean and bathhouse is cleaned daily. Great hiking, fishing, bird watching or just chillaxin. Staff is always helpful. Been here many times and will definitely be back!
Excellent park for hiking, kayak, and fishing. Beautifully preserved wildlife and well maintained facilities eoth friendly.
The location was lovely, and the camp host was wonderfully accommodating. However, considering the $80 nightly fee for waterside parking, I anticipated that the septic would be included. The heated pool was a pleasant amenity. While the bathrooms were clean, they would benefit from a remodel, and it was disappointing to find no handicap-accessible showers available.
Note: TT Encore does not mean a special upgraded park,
Per TT, Encore parks are ones that agree to hold several sites for TT members. We've come to understand the worst sites are set aside for TT members
Don't waste your money if TT and do research on what site you get if not This is the second worse Encore park we've visited
Booked this site 60 days ago for longer BUT left early as it was so bad One lane roads with 2 way traffic. If you have a big rig, it will be tight.
Our Site: Side and rear backs up to the park dump and supply site.
Grass/dirt site.
Our front has 6 foot diameter sewer drum which is leaking vapor, picnic table over some access panel.
Some resolution could be had if a privacy fence was put up to shelter the view Surrounded by year round residents, some homes well kept, most not so much, some abandoned and trashed
I reached out to park manager and was after 2 hours and we already set up in 85 degree heat, there was 1 other site but it was just as bad.
We paid an additional$20 per night, I asked for a refund, response was Why? What did you expect?
They said to contact TT I contacted TT and they said they couldn't do anything, but I could file a complaint. Our neighbor was here 3 months, they said on Google earth the area behind us was a field at time of booking. Also told if they wanted to rebook for next year, they would have to have the same site! They aren't coming back either
ALSO at 630 am a crew decided to install an electric both beside the septic tank, pic ax, sawing metal and cement.
So much for our vacation stay
Fish Eating Creek Outpost : Trails and canoe/kayak shuttle provided Water is a bit low right now. There is a 2 mile trail beginning in the campground. There is also a 6.7 mile trail within a short drive from the campground. I have included a map for this trail in photos.
(70 yr olds in 17’ trailer. Our rating of a campground is influenced by the following: The general ambiance- sort of wilderness feel the campground gives us. A selection of campsites which offer some visual privacy. Cleanliness of whatever type of the campsite and whatever facilities are offered is important and usually noted in my review.

Sites: Perimeter sites are nicest in my opinion. Sites under the mossy trees are going to offer some shade.
P1-6 are my favorite sites here. They offer RVs more of a camping kind of atmosphere as they are a little more secluded. Not all have electric/sewer, so better check. They are under trees with moss hanging from them. Not all sites in P1-6 will accommodate a tall rig!
The campsites are well-shaded and have easy access to walking & biking trails. We've visited Myakka on day trips previously, and just recently camped there for the first time. It's quiet, and there's plenty of wildlife to be seen: Lots of birds, alligators, deer, wild turkeys. Bathrooms with laundry facilities were conveniently located, but we didn't use them. Campsite was clean, level, and easy to back into.
Great location between beaches, trails, and place to stay. Restrooms/showers were clean and staff were very helpful.
Located in Jasper, TN. This is a place to visit! Fair rates ($35/night) and great views. Friendly staff. Upkeep on bathrooms and showers. Very pleased with my stay here! The lot was a tight squeeze so if you’re not an experienced driver, you may want to request a different lot selection.
Well I called to reserve for the night. I was given a discounted $40 overnight rate. It seemed fair, but the conditions were underwhelming. I had to use the shower and bathrooms and frankly… it was a hole in the wall. The shower was literally just a hole in the wall! Had to walk carefully in the bathroom to avoid getting in contact with the disgusting conditions.
Had a very nice time with my family this past weekend. I was very pleased with everything about this place, the bathrooms were clean and plenty of them throughout the campground. The location of this campground is right in the middle of at least 4 different beaches. Our site didn’t have much shade and it was really close to the creek. All in all we were all happy campers 😉
The town is getting back on its feet’s after the hurricane, we couldn’t stay but is a nice area to eat and talk with the locals
Cancellation policy states you have 7 days prior to arrival to be refunded. Notified Holly on the 11th that we would not be arriving on the 18th due to an accident, and was told I would be refunded the amount minus $25 administration fee. Two days later received a call from Holly stating the campground had to be notified on the 10th to process the refund, therefore canceling my refund. Now numbers are subject to interpretation. Last I checked 18 - 7 =11. Splitting hairs to make a dollar.
I should have been a no show- at least they wouldn’t have the chance to double charge on the campsite. Beware!
We spent the winter here after usually being near the beach. It was a fun place to be to experience a different ambience. The city of LaBelle has winter events like their Swamp Cabbage Festival and parade. They have a nice rodeo grounds with impressive events. The RV park itself has tons of activities and pickle ball courts etc. Owners friendly. We don’t have a pet, but everyone seems careful with their dogs. It’s a very seasonal park and pretty new. They just finished a second new laundry and showers building this 2023 year. Very fair prices. But must have a less-than-ten-year-old rig.
We are staying here for 2 weeks. This is our first visit. To be fair, they are still recovering from hurricane Ian. Some of the sites are very nice and well kept and others look like they have very long term residents who don’t clean up after themselves very well.
We stayed in April of 2023 during the week. I think there might be 10 sites full. Verizon 3 bars
We were fortunate enough to get here before the hurricanes destroyed parts of this campground. It is so peaceful and naturally beautiful. Plenty of places to walk and ride bikes to. Our site was shady and a really good size. Bathhouse was always clean. Cannot wait to go back.
We don’t live too far so the things to do have already been done, but for a new camper shakedown trip, it’s perfect. Would also be good for families with small children (we are empty nest). Bathrooms are clean and updated, CG is pretty well maintained. We stayed in the back 40, no trees and it was pretty windy. Sites are crushed shell and our site was pretty level.
Peace River is a very large campground. Nearly half is still unusable after Ian. The sites that are open are spacious. There are many trees so many roots in the campsites. Our site was very level with a concrete patio. Except for the traffic nearby it is a very quiet campground. We had many perfect nights sleeping here. Although we were here in March there seemed to be many available sites and many campers moving in and out.
Great spot to winter, but they are only taking annual campers. We only want 3 months so we are moving next year. But it is a wonderful community with a very active group.
Unfortunately, red tide has killed many of the fish in the creek and the smell was terrible. No mention of this was made when we checked in. Our site (17) backed up to the creek and it was littered with dozens of dead fish.
I have been coming here every year for the last 5 years for an annual trip. This place is great with nice trails and fishing . Bathrooms always are a bit dirty and get messy at the end of a weekend but otherwise a great spot .
sites are quiet with plenty of room. very nice fresh vegetable market and camp store. Would stay again for sure.
The campsite was nice. The dog park was nice. The pool was nice but had ALOT of frogs that didn’t make it… I was told there was a turtle found once so look before you enter, they do clean it very often though! Very close to Walmart! I even had a package delivered here!
We have camped on both the lake and the river. They are both a different experience and both nice. If I had to choose I would say the lake is a little bit more quaint.
You can rent canoes, fish, and our favorite - have a fire on the beach.
It definitely has southern charm. The people running it are very down to earth and hospitable.
I'm in town doing hurricane rebuild, pioneer village is accommodating, a lot of long-term residents, nice pool nice staff nice residence but not five star resort,
Enjoyed our brief stay at Periwinkle. Quiet, good bathrooms, a short hike to the beach and great restaurants and bars and ice cream within walking. Also serves as an exotic bird refuge. So much to like. Great price point.
