GuideMy partner and I really enjoyed this campground! It’s all around beautiful and clean. The staff were very helpful and sweet. I would definitely recommend this charm because I know I for sure will be back.
TravelerThis is a great campground. I stayed at the family campground, and it was a great experience camping there. I went on a five-mile hike on the DuPuis reserve loop1 trail, which took me about two hours to complete. There's plenty of wildlife to see on the trail so bring your binoculars. It's free to stay, but a permit is required if you plan on staying at any of their campgrounds. There was a lot of gnats around and they were a nuisance, so bug spray is recommended. This is very quiet campground and very peaceful and relaxing. I had a racoon pay me a visit during the night, but that's expected when camping in the wild. Overall, I highly recommend this place to get away from it all and to enjoy life.
ScoutThe place is gross and dirty, not what it says it is, the washer and dryer are so old and rusted, the bathrooms are gross, and rats everywhere or girls mice from the pigs. The chickens are always sick, and just the flies alone will carry you away it is annoying. The lady jen is a complete psycho and you will not be happy out here. They say about fruits and this that and the other, please do not be fooled it's a junkyard full of weeds and is gross. The place should be condemed actually.
GuideNice wildlife area with tons of hiking and mudding trails. Campsites are massive and can accommodate many vehicles/tents/rvs at once. You will need a free permit when reserving your site, which can be found on their website. The entrance fee is $6 per vehicle or $3 per person, or free if you have a Management Area Permit. I stayed at sites A and B with B being the better if the two since it had access to a covered area and floating dock. Note: you will hear freight trains and Pratt & Whitney's engine testing throughout the night, so bring something to cover your ears if you're a light sleeper. T-Mobile becomes spottier the deeper in you go. Campsites are located near the north entrance, so if you don't want to drive for 30+ min through the park, DO NOT enter from the east entrance.
ScoutFelt safe in a gated community over looking the firehouse but also felt like maybe we were not supposed to be there and so we spent a lot of time inside our trailer.
ScoutThe location is convenient to restaurants shopping and I95 interstate. Very friendly people
ScoutIt's great to be in Fort Lauderdale, so close to activities. RV park is old, poorly kept, and crowded. Mostly long-term campers who were very friendly. Vehicles parked onto narrow black top roads. Dead leaves blown to the side but not picked up. Peeling paint in showers. Friendly staff to our faces, but overheard them being unkind when they didn't know we could hear.
GuideThis place is so cool. All the sites are wrapped around a pond. Palm trees and all kinds of other shrubbery are throughout the campground. There are a couple of small alligators 🐊 in the pond and some big ole turtles 🐢. The campground host is very nice. They check out your reservation and leave you alone. I say, check it out. It's free. 👍
GuideEvery spot on the campground was great, and you can bring your boat up to shore on some.
