Nice amenities

Not the best not the worst. Totally does the job and has all the amenities. Just not our vibe. Sites were all on grass and after a couple of weeks camping just the south I sure appreciate some gravel or sand. All the things live in grass. Pool.. looked nice but it was locked. Another one where the offices closes at 5.. most seem to be open until 7-8pm my favorite was key west open til 10pm! Just nice to have someone to communicate with - were low maintenance - or some signage describing how to utilize things if the office is closed. Bathrooms clean & with AC, nice park, courts to play sports but not sure if any equipment available. Clubhouse was unlocked we played pool while we waited for an Uber to the baseball game.

Friendly, fun and great location for exploring South Florida

We stayed thirteen nights at this park.  We really enjoyed the stay and recommend.  The campsites are mostly nice.  There are a lot of seasonal campers and it seems those sites are nicer.  The sites closer to the cabin area are closer together.  I wouldn't recommend this campsite for actual campsite, but rather the excellent location and fun activities and amenities of the park.  

The park has lots to do and while dated, it is kept in good shape.  The pool is lovely with lounge chairs, palm trees and a tropical feel.  They have a hot tub, too.  Everything clean and had a resort-feel.  There are an abundance of activities: pickle ball, shuffleboard, a nice mini-golf course, walking trail, clubhouse, fire pits and large open grassy space.

We have two active dogs and they have a huge field where we were able to run our dogs off-leash and chase the frisbee.  I am not sure if it is allowed, but there were others as well so seemed okay.  This was a real benefit when camping with pets that like to run.  

The park is in a beautiful, agricultural area in the town of Redlands.  It is very tropical with farms, nurseries and lots of tropical fruit stands and interesting parks.  It feels rural but it is close enough to town to go to the Miami beaches or other activities.  If you go, check out all the agricultural farms, the Fruit and Spice stand, the 'Robert is Here' fruit stand and the Knaups Berry Farm for world class cinnamon rolls.  The lines were too long for us to wait, but we heard they were the best.

This is one of the most friendly parks I have stayed.  We were there on Christmas and New Years and had a total blast.  They had music, karaoke, dancing and potluck dinners. The staff was nice too, we met Jason who was super helpful.  My friend flew in to visit and she rented one of their deluxe cabins.  It was really nice, with a fireplace, fenced patio, loft, kitchen.  The entire experience at this resort was enjoyable and felt like being at camp.  Highly recommend a visit.

Beautiful campground with shady areas all around

The resort itself is large and surrounded by fruit trees, pine trees and other shady trees which offer coverage from the hot sun. Activities only December to April - pool is nice and the staff that directs you to your site is amazing. Otherwise no security after hours which allows rif raf to come in and use the pool, laundry facilities, etc which makes the area unsafe.

Family Style Campground

We stayed here for two days on our way North from the Keys. It is a great family style campground close to Miami, Key Biscayne, and the Everglades National Forest. We used this as our landing area to enjoy the local beaches, amenities, and natural sites. There was a pickle ball tournament going on which looked like fun. The pool looked nicely appointed and clean, although, we did not use it. I did feel that the bathrooms close to our site were in need of an upgrade. They rated a low 2 stars. There is a walking/Biking path around the campground perimeter which is actively used.

The Harbers

The staff has always been INCREDIBLY RUDE, except for Ferni and Crystal who left due to the toxic environment. Hot tub is broken CONSTANTLY. They almost impounded our travel trailer claiming we abandoned it there, even though they were getting paid $1,000 a month for us to have it there. They took payment from someone who used a credit card of mine who is not an authorized user. They should not have been able to charge me for the last month that we had to pay in full even though we were there only half. Now I have to fight to get that money returned to me and from past experience, this will be ugly. The maintenance man is known to cuss people out and for being drunk. Not worth the money nor the unpleasant atmosphere. Lake Okochobee is more than half of the price and everyone there is so friendly!! I even got a trailer warming gift from my neighbor. Everyone came out to welcome me. Nice!! What a difference!! Thank you Aruba Rv resort for being so friendly and economical and right on the water and having a pool and restaurant.

Nice Thousand Trails Resort

We stayed here for the night on the way to the keys. Park had good power and water pressure. Showers and bathrooms were clean and nice. Roads were fine for large RV'S. I would stay here again.

Nice stopping resort to see the attractions around Miami

The people are nice and the park clean. The sites are close together, I suppose to allow for many seasonal residents.

However, this park is located in an area where exotic fruit trees grow and many ornamental wholesale growers are. Dragon fruit, Mangos, Avocados and others.

An easy drive to visit the Everglades National Park and the Biscayne National Park.

Just what we needed

Myself, my husband, and our 2 year old son recently started camping as a family. We originally chose Miami Everglades RV Resort as a site to test our new equipment. It is close to home, so we figured if something went wrong, we’d just pack up and come home. Much to our surprise, this site is extremely nice! It is very clean, upkept well, and all staff were extremely helpful. We were originally assigned a campsite right next to another group who was taking up a lot of space so the office staff graciously worked with us and let us choose our own site. Even though this was a “test site” for us, our experience was so good and so relaxing that we will be back!

Very nice.

This place is situated in the mirror middle of acres upon acres of ornamental trees and shrubs for sale by various companies. They’re currently was not a manager however issues we had our resolved fairly quickly. The spots are tight. There’s a really nice pool miniature golf in a walking trail around the entire perimeter. Overall I really enjoyed it. Miami and the keys from this location easily

Disappointing but amenities could make up for it.

If you truly like camping with space to breath, then this resort may not be for you. These sites are so close together there is little privacy. Lots of regulars and full-timers. Covid has forced some changes but the amenities are nice, when they work. On several occasions our water went out (in the middle of a shower and another time during dinner prep, and yet again while doing laundry!) Cable also went out several times. WiFi very expensive and even the guest hotspot at the club house was spotty at best. Lots of kids in the hot tub and the pool, if you could even get in. It’s a huge pool but they only let 20 in at a time.  Location seemed far away from everything. Lots of driving. I would not have stayed there so long had I been paying full price. Upon arrival with numerous sites available, they put us in a spot almost on top of the sewage dump and dumpsters. We would have been eating on top of my neighbors sewage hose. It was so gross, it should not have even been a site. After returning three times to say we just couldn’t be in that spot for two weeks, they finally conceded and gave us a 50 amp site, which was a little larger and better located. She explained I would have to go and get a 30/50 amp converter connection. When I got to the site I was pleasantly surprised to find both 30 and 50 hookups. The saving grace for us was the owners of two RVs to our right were not there, otherwise we would have known way too much about them after 2 weeks.

Very disappointed.

Disappointed is the best word to describe this place. The campground has so many great things to offer however the people working here completely ruin the experience. The picture are very misleading. The site is not being kept up. The pool is not heated and was dirty. They charge you to play putt-putt. I could go on and on but again the most disappointing part about this site is the complete rudeness from the staff.

RV Parks have uped their game!

Miami Everglades RV Resort is in the Miami area but it doesn't feel like Miami at all. They have a really nice big pool, shuffleboard, putt putt golf, arcade and walking trail. It's off the beaten path but worth the drive. The front office staff was so helpful. We arrived after an afternoon storm had blown their power. They still checked us in with now problem. We stopped here for 2 nights while exploring The Everglades on our way to Key West. Close to Miami Everglades is a fruit stand called Robert Is Here. Don't miss it!
