    The Glades Resort began as a private country club in the ‘70’s by land baron Joe B. Hendry with a hotel, marina, golf course, and a fine club house - which was reputed to host card games for such magnates as Henry Ford and Thomas Edison, who resided in nearby Fort Myers. Joe B’s son Joel Hendry took the baton and created the Branding Iron Steakhouse at our club house. Following this era, the park transitioned and expanded into an RV Resort. Within the last five years the new ownership has upgraded the Park’s existing facilities and added a host of new sites, buildings, and recreational facilities. The upcoming season has plans for 100 more RV sites, a 1 megwatt Solar Farm, and such new amenities as a Doggy Spa, Kayaking Loop, Community Bread Oven, and Golf Cart Drive In Theater!

    Our mission at the Glades Resort is to provide our guests with an engaging, private, and breath taking natural environment in which to reside. Our natural, biodiverse setting offers many outdoor activities including outdoor photography, golfing, boating, a bounty of outside gaming, biking and hiking on our nature trail and in neighboring preserves, swimming, horseback riding, fishing, bird watching and more. Just the diversity of large birds include Sand Hill cranes, Wood storks, a variety of herons, egrets, owls, eagles, anhinga, limpkins, caracaras, and more.

    Although you are in the country, you will never be lacking for meeting new friends at The Glades RV Resort, Golf and Marina.

    Filling up quickly.

    Rustic. Freedom. Old timers. Families. AANR. Pool is heated comfortably year round. Sauna. Hot tub restaurant fitness laundry pool table clubhouse. Pavilliin. Much is centered around the above area. But more is being done for trails and sites.

    A very beautiful place to see natural Florida. Lots of camping spots for both tents and RV's. They even have a floating cabin. Good facilities, great staff, hiking, biking and swimming. Canoe and kayak rentals or bring your own. There are different paddling trips to choose from. I always enjoy this place.

    West Palm Beach-Lion Country Safari KOA

    Great family campground

    This campground that sits just outside of the only drive through animal safari with over 1,000 different types of animals, is great for families to enjoy. This has all the amenities as a typical KOA campground except you get a bonus by hearing the Lions roar in the morning. The campground is gated during evening hours with the gate closing at 10:00 pm, so you will need to get a gate key card with a $20.00 deposit which will be refunded when you turn the key back at the end of your stay. The staff are very friendly and the campground is very clean. They also do a great job with abiding by the CDC guidelines for Covid-19. The Raccoons like to come out in the evening, so make sure you pick up you garbage at night. The rabbits were having fun playing in the primitive camping area every evening and early morning hours. They offer cabin and platform tent rentals for slightly more than a tent site. There are many seasonal campers from the North along with weekend campers trying to escape the everyday stress in their lives. We live 1 hour south of this campground but we will definitely be going back fir weekend trips.

    Small Town Beauty

    This park is not the ritz but the City of Pahokee has made lots of improvements over the years. The picnic area has been upgraded and there has been a dog walk integrated with available poop stations. There are cabins on the lake that can be rented out and empty lots as well for campers/rv’s. There are a lot of local fishermen here everyday on the “boardwalk”. There is also a boat launch and an abundance of parking for your truck and boat trailer. The real beauty are the sunsets here. Definitely a wonderful spot to stop for a quick picnic while on the road. If you’re lucky you might even spot some gators!

    KOA Campground Okeechobee

    A great place for families and kids...

    This is the largest KOA in the country...It's a Great campground for families, although I didn't go with one...There is an adult only pool, and a family pool. The Shanty, a bar is right by the adult pool, with entertainment in season and mostly on weekends. I've been there many times in the past, with my TT and my Coach...The sites are mostly large enough for Big rigs...There are upgrades to deluxe sites with brick patios, barbeques, fire pits and chairs. It's a very busy place on the holidays...If you want quiet those days, I don't suggest you go there...There is also a Golf Course, Golf Cart Rental, A nice updated store, A fenced in Dog park...

    Fisheating Creek Campground

    Lovely campground

    I’m a tent camper and this place was almost perfect. The staff are excellent. On site store has almost everything you need. Security good. Clean bathrooms/showers. Very clean sites (too clean, I couldn’t even find any firewood). There’s a nice loop walking trail in the forest (partial boardwalk). The river is lovely with all the birds and fish (also many alligators). I won’t comment on the RV sites as they look pretty standard out in an open big field. But the more primitive riverside sites are perfect. Lots of fishing and canoe/kayak (and bicycle) rentals available. I came on a weekday in Feb and was fortunate to have only one neighbor but I understand this place gets packed on the weekends. The only negative thing I would say is the nearby highway noise. It is busy and loud even during the nights. If that doesn’t bother you, I very much recommend Fisheating campground.

    No Picnic Table

    A new casino is being built beginning Summer 2023 with expected completion in 2025.  We were told the majority of the campsites and cabins will house the construction workers for the casino project.

    PROS 

    Prearrival text regarding checkin and checkin documents left at campground sign, but it had rained and documents were unreadable 

    Deon was very helpful upon arrival 

    Security code for bathhouse entry 

    Over 65 and veteran discount 

    Site 312 concrete pad level 

    Site 312 paver patio surrounded by sand and weeds, but most sites had manicured grass. 

    Nicely spaced sites. 

    Very clean bathhouse during the week. 

    5 washers and 5 dryers at $2 each in Park laundromat. Office sells quarters. 

    Quiet. 

    Saw Seminole police patrolling frequently 

    TMobile 4 bars. 

    Park had WIFI but we did not connect. 

    CONS 

    No security gate so LOTS of drive-bys 

    30amp breaker overheated and tripped 3 times during our 7 night stay 

    Site 312 absolutely no shade 

    Not permitted to select site online when making reservations 

    Absolutely no bathhouse cleaning Saturday and Sunday so by Sunday evening it was pretty nasty 

    Price increase 8/1/22 that we had to pay even tho we made reservations during March 2022 

    Need to bring-your-own fire ring, but wasn't informed of this requirement until we arrived 

    No picnic table at site upon arrival. Notified camp office who advised one would be provided first thing next morning by park maintenance. 

    Day 2. No table. Stopped by camp office right before noon and reported no table delivered to site. Then the excuses started from Jodi, the park manager…only one maintenance man…picnic tables are disappearing overnight and that’s a problem…now have 3 sites that need a picnic table…staff believes other campers see a unoccupied site and drag table to their site…there were 63 tables when the season started… No mention of when picnic table will be delivered to site. We offered to help get it. Told maintenance man is working on it. 

    Day 3. No table. 

    Day 4. Stopped by office at 9am for an update on when to expect a table. Spoke with Jodi again. She had no update. Same excuses as I heard on Day 2 but she did mention that NEXT YEAR she was going to need to anchor the tables at each site so they don’t disappear. I mentioned seeing 4 tables at the firepit area. She said we are welcomed to take a table from the community firepit area and move it to our campsite but those are needing replacement boards badly(her words). 

    Never got a table. Just too heavy for us to drag one from the firepit area to our site, which was a bit more than a half block and the maintenance man never delivered one.

    Moore Haven KOA

    Not the worst but... close

    If you want something in the middle of nowhere with nothing to do, please go here.  They have some nice sites and some beautiful vistas but, they have LOTS of problems.  If you need to be in South Florida and can't find another site, this works as a campground of last resort but, it's LAST resort which is how we ended up there for 2 months.  

    The staff TRIES but, there is little support to keeping the place up-kept.  Staff keeps abandoning and leaving the place for brighter pastures even skipping out without notice due to the retribution of management.

    This team owns and manages several KOA in south Florida and this location needs to lose it's KOA affiliation due to lack of amenities.

    On the positive side, when we thought we wouldn't fit in our next stop at Everglades National Park, they bent over backwards to make sure we didn't have to move our site.  Our campsite was huge but, we could not put up our tent, screen room or EZ-UP. 

    Most campers were looking to leave while we were there this winter.

    Fishing and dirt track racing

    One of the finer older campgrounds in Florida, peaceful and serene. Located on the rim canal of Lake Okeechobee, we stayed for two nights to go to the Hendry County Speedway for dirt track racing and basically caught a Bass every time we cast a line. The only reason I did not rate them a 5 was due to the shower facility, it’s in need of a renovation. friendly staff and a quiet fishing atmosphere. We will stay there again!!!

    Ranger Review: Renogy E.Flex 10 Portable Solar Panel at Fisheating Creek Outpost and Campground, Palmdale, FL

    Campground Review: Fisheating Creek Outpost and Campground, Palmdale, FL

    At last minute, I was able to secure one of two available campsites over the phone…but even the website recommends emailing them for reservations because of an overload of phone calls. Fisheating Creek Outpost and Campground http://www.fisheatingcreekoutpost.com/ in name, may not sound appealing to most campers…but you'd never know it by the sold out sites on a daily basis.

    Securing a campsite at Fisheating Creek Outpost during the winter months, Nov-May 1, is a gamble. Weather is cooler and more predictable than summer months. Northerners migrate south like winged songbirds and usually pack out all south Florida campgrounds during winter months… and this particular campground is popular with the locals.

    Fisheating Creek Outpost and Campground is only 1.5 hours NE from me, and affords some variety, for a Florida campground. Unbeknownst to me Cub Scout Pack 141 from West Palm was holding their annual jamboree campout at Fisheating Creek the first weekend I camped. So there were throngs of youngsters, but still plenty of space here not to feel crowded…and they were having a great time.

    I should interject that September 2017 Hurrican Irma did a number on this area, along with the actual creek water rising ten feet. So the staff and volunteers are doing a remarkable job under the circumstances to return this campground to a state of normalcy. Speaking of staff, Stephanie at registration and Ryan at the boat livery were extremely helpful, informative and polite. I have found young people from this area of Florida extraordinarily polite and respectful.

    The office, on the right when you first cross the RR tracks and enter the campground, which is on elevated stilts had two foot of water running through it during the Hurricane, so they temporarily conduct business out of a tent at the entrance until renovated. Staff and volunteer crews have worked tirelessly to make the campground and creek usable, clean and debris free.

    One must realize this is south central Florida, so expect gators, wild hogs, and snakes. With as much activity that abounds at the campground, you'll likely not see them in the campground, as much as you will see them directly outside of it. Prepare for mosquitos…though I only dealt with mosquitos for about 15 minutes at sunset and my tent site was on the river.

    Fisheating Creek is the draw. There is a livery connected with the Outpost/Campground where you can either rent kayaks or canoes to paddle upstream or you can opt to reserve a spot on the shuttle to drop you 8 or 16 miles upstream for a fee. http://www.fisheatingcreekoutpost.com/showpage.asp?page=rates#canoes Float time downstream for 8 miles is roughly four hours.

    The shuttle fee was excessive, for my budget, so I chose to paddle upstream from my campsite. It should be noted, that non-campers can use the Outpost livery or put-in for a mere $2 per person. Actual boat rental prices are reasonable.

    The paddle upstream is pleasant in a kayak, and not burdensome as Fisheating Creek was not flowing swiftly…around 3.5 ft. Families in laden canoes were paddling upstream without much difficulty even with a deeper draft. Blue blazes on Cypress trees mark the way as it is mostly narrow and twisty. During rainy season and higher water levels, you will need the blazes to find your way through the Cypress maze. Occasional paddle placards with a directional arrow are also posted. Fisheating Creek is wild, no doubt about it. Swimming is discouraged, as it is a dark tannin color and loaded with alligators. Passing paddlers that started 8 miles upstream stopped counting after 100, which is commonplace in these parts. Gators range in size from one to fourteen footers. I counted a couple dozen on each of my paddles upstream. Fortunately, it is illegal to feed alligators, and most people abide by the rules, so they are still wary and scoot upon close approach. Of course, none of this dissauded the Cub Scouts from their maritime fun, as they found a riverside rope swing that launched them into the dark depths. Reminder: Always check the Fisheating Creek water level website before planning a trip, if you are hopeful for a pleasurable paddle.http://www.fisheatingcreekoutpost.com/showpage.asp?page=waterlevels

    Herons, egrets, wood stork, roseate spoonbills, ibis, pileated woodpeckers, osprey, buzzards and wood duck are plentiful and noisy when disturbed by your presence.

    January 2018, the waters have only recently receded, so hiking trails were still quite swampy. Doable if you wear muck boots or water shoes. Part of the trails parallel along the creek.

    Amenities: The campground is somewhat separated into two sections, the RV/Camper area is to the right and has its own loop, separate shower house/restroom with screened in pavilion area…and has more grassy area. The tent only area continues left past the livery and into a wooded, shaded area along the creek. The tent only area also has its own shower house/restroom. Both of which are dated, but clean.

    There is a third camping area on the north end of the property around the western side of the swimming pond, where they do permit swimming. This area has a pavilion, picnic tables at campsites and separate tables for "day use" visitors…and a newer pit latrine. Campsites in this loop are also quite shaded.

    None of the campsites offer much in the way of privacy. Sites above 60 provide more foliage between sites. At site 63, I was a distance from the showerhouse, but the campground positioned a Porta-potty in our loop.

    Alternative: If you desired, you could bring your kayak or canoe (or rent one), either pay for the upstream shuttle or paddle upstream and camp along the river at any "high and dry" spot. The cost to park your vehicle at the campground is only $2 per individual…and it costs nothing to paddle upstream and camp with your own gear. Plenty of elevated sandy beach areas to tent camp and more where you can hammock. Although, I would not recommend ground sleeping without a tent, nor hammocking overnight without netting. I spoke with several parties camped upstream along the river. Realize, this is a wild river…"there are things that go bump in the night."

    Be forewarned…because Fishingeating Creek Oupost and Campground are located on Rt.27 and 8/10th's of a mile north of Rt.29, the campground is within earshot of highway traffic noise. Ear plugs eliminate that noise, but I prefer hearing the sounds of nature during the night, particularly the bull alligator's roar.

    Product Review: Renogy E.Flex 10 Folding Solar Panel with USB

    The Renogy E.Flex 10 Folding Solar Panel with USB https://www.renogy.com/renogy-e-flex10-portable-solar-panel-with-usb-port/ arrived in a smal but smartly packaged box. The panels were folded and couched in protective foam cutouts. Beneath the panels were two small 1.85" aluminum carabiners and four 1.25" suction cups and a bifold instruction pamplet.

    The technical information can be easily acquired from Renogy.com website: https://www.renogy.com/renogy-e-flex10-portable-solar-panel-with-usb-port/#tab_prd-specs but for quick reference…folded it measures 10.3"x6.3"x0.16", unfolded: 13.4"x10.3"x0.08"

    By way of comparison, my only other solar panel experience is with a major competitor that is attached to my Gregory Baltoro GZ 75 pack. So this review will from a layman's perspective and neither technical nor exhaustive.

    As a product reviewer for TheDyrt, I am honored to receive products for testing and evaluation at substantial discounts or no cost at all…and such is the case with the Renogy E.Flex 10 Folding Solar Panel with USB.

    First look: When handling the E.Flex 10, if feels sturdy and appears durable even though it is wafer thin. There is no "flex" in the panels themselves, but rather in the "binder-style" fabric-covered plastic hinge between the two panels, so it can be folded book-like. The four cutout corner tabs have some flexibility in the material as well.

    The exterior fabric on the solar panel side has a rubbery texture, whereas the opposite or outside has an oxford cloth.

    I found the solar panel grid side to repel water…beading up and dripping off. The obvious weak link in the weatherproofing is the USB port. Keeping that in mind, if attaching to the exterior of your pack…keep USB port side facing downward to minimize water collection should you get caught in an unexpected cloudburst.

    Attaching the Renogy E.Flex 10 to my kayak worked sufficiently well with the included carabiners. If my bow deck was wider, I would have experimented with the suction cups. Remember surfaces must be smooth and clean to adhere and hold securely. Salt brine residue on the bow deck also negatively effected the suction cups.

    In additon to attaching the Renogy E.Flex 10 to my backpack and my kayak, I experimented by attaching it to the an interior house window, a tinted vehicle window and inside my lanai screening (which has a claimed 50 SPF). In SW Florida, we get ample blue sky, sun-filled days…so I was able to use the solar panels daily.

    In my unscientific, non-technical testing fashion…I used a 4,000 mAh lithium ion battery power stick. In sustained direct sunlight, the E.Flex 10 took 3.5 hours to fully charge the power stick (which would roughly charge my smartphone two times).

    My house windows are not tinted so charges times were uneffected. The lanai screen SPF claims must be inaccurate as similar charge times were observed. Only the heavily tinited auto glass substantially increased charge times.

    When stationary and connecting the E.Flex 10 Folding Solar Panels directly to my smartphone, while using search engines and keeping three windows open, my phone continued to slowly charge. Note: with cloud coverage or intermittent shade when directly connected to the smartphone, a screen prompt pops up…"This accessory might not be supported" and offers a "Dismiss" tab. This is part of the Smart Auto-Optimization charging…which initially reduces charging (with shade) but permits the charger to return to the full solar power flow without the necessity to unplug and plug the device. Apparently, this is a feature some solar panels do not offer…so charging remains seamless.

    In comparison, I found no difference in charge times between the Renogy E.Flex 10 and my GZ. To be fair, the dimensions of the E.Flex 10 were slightly larger…which could potentially impact that finding.

    Durability: Time and continued use will tell. I've only used the E.Flex 10 for a month but it appears like it should hold up. However, I have obswerved a small pucker in the fabric on the binding, where the oxford cloth has separated from the plastic "hinge." Cause for concern? Probably not, but we will see.

    Parting Shots: Perhaps I'm being picky, but I believe replacing the two aluminum carabiners with four Nite-Ize "S" carabiners, along with a weather resistant USB port or connector, and an optional USB daisy chain to connect two or more E.Flex 10's together so I could utilize a laptop or iPad in the backcountry would elevate the value and usefulness of the Renogy E.Flex 10.

    Did I like it? Absolutely. It's simple to use and effective.

    Would I invest in one? Yes. For $59.99 factory direct…it's a bargain!

    Ghetto

    Avoid this area at all costs. This area is the porest in the nation, with highest crime and HIV rates.

    Beware of thefts, dog poop everywhere and roosters crowing non stop beginning at 3am. Don't expect finding a decent place to eat ether. The sunset over the lake is gorgeus though.

    Awesome Family Trip

    We gathered our large family with relatives and wemt up to Fisheating Creek for a camping weekend. We have been previously and loved the more secluded camping spots. There was plenty of room in the site for us to spread out while being surrounded by nature. They have a decent amount of amenaties for both tent and rv camping, though we usually stick to the tent areas, so I cant really speak to the rv zone. Many of the sites are grouped in large clearing and connected to their neighbor sites, but we chose the hike in sites right against the river bank. We fished, rented kayaks and played outdoor games, with an evening of marshmallow roasting to finish. It was beautiful, peaceful and excellent, we will return again!

    One stop gator shop :)

    We camped at FEC this past January 2018. We were tent camping for the long weekend. We were in a spot right on the water which was peaceful. Camping is tight in that area so if you prefer more space you may want to go to the field areas. This is a fun little campground for kids with activities and karaoke at night. We rented kayaks on Sunday. We were dropped off in the woods and kayaked through 200 gators! The only con for me is that there IS road noise from the highway.

    Buggy

    This campground is right by a slow moving river and very buggy. Campsite had bug nests everywhere we couldn't even stay the night. Three stars for spaciousness, clean restrooms. Spotted a little gator in the pond, that was neat!

    It rained and we still had an awesome time

    Honestly this place is so great. The campsites are large and excellent especially by the creek. The creek gives you so much to do between kayaking and fishing even in the rain, we had such a great time.

    Great for canoe or kayak

    Plenty of oportunities for hiking, fishing (not necessarily catching though), and paddling. Good sanitary facilities and a decently stocked store with firewood and snacks.

    Fisheating Creek

    We stayed at Fisheating Creek on the lake a couple weeks ago and had a very fun time with my three daughters. Rented a canoe and saw alligators almost immediately. There is a nice little spot with a beach that was popular to pull over and stretch your feet. We were lucky to bring our own lifevests because they did run out when it was time to get our canoe. they had a food truck on site that looked very good but we never made it there because we had plenty of our own food. I would recommend it and will be back.

    Decent camping spot

    We stayed on the tent campsite near the swimming lake, site 007. The area is nice, beautiful morning views from the swimming lake and great hiking/canoeing paths with fearful encounters with gators, at one instance 5 gators in the creek just feet away while canoeing, we even hit one thinking it was a log. Now the bad... There is a train track visible across the lake, this train WILL wake you up and it passes several times a day making that obnoxious "I'm coming through" sound from the horn. There is also a main road/highway (27) that can be heard as well. I'm okay with all that (ear plugs), the main issue I had was with the neighbor campers, literally like 60 people with the loudest dj setup made for a big crowd party and lots of alcohol. These guys had lights that would light up a football field at night, couldn't sleep and couldn't even enjoy the night sky due to the lights. The problem is that the campsite is made for 10 people max, or so I thought. No, nobody there abide by the rules and there is no camp edicate. The "neighbors" would walk through my campsite and trip on my tent lines just to pee in the bushes next to my campsite because they didn't want to walk to the bathroom. The bathrooms at the primitive campsite are outhouses with no running water by the way. If you want to take a shower or wash your hands, you will have to walk (long walk) or drive to the main bathroom. I had to take a shower with a roach lurking in the corner, not upkept whatsoever. Because of the rule breaking, I had to give this review 3 stars, it would have been 4 (1 star knock off because of the bathrooms)

    Nice park close to Miami

    Pretty good spot for primitive camping. I would say the ideal spots would be on the water of depot lake where you’re pretty secluded and by the water. The scrub spots are also good but you get a lot of generator noise from the water treatment pump. The RV sites is a parking lot so that’s not good for tents at all. The riverside grill has good food in see you didn’t pack enough and the store has ice and $10 firewood bundles. The trail is pretty short unless you venture off but only in the dry season or you’ll be up to your knees in mud. Renting a canoe is a good idea to drift around and see some wildlife.
