    Phipps Park Campground

    Quiet and Beautiful

    We stayed in one of the electrical sights along the river. We made use of the fire pit and enjoyed the sunset. The other guests were friendly and we saw a bunch of dogs around.

    The property manager was highly responsive when we requested the gate code via email. The gate closes at 7:30 pm but with the code there is no issue.

    We did not visit the on-site bathrooms nor did we use the dish cleaning station.

    The glamping tents were just that - a tent built onto a platform.

    We truly enjoyed our peaceful visit to the park and highly recommend staying along the water.

    Phipps Park Campground

    Surprisingly Empty for the Start of Memorial Weekend!

    I lucked into this hidden gem of a campground on my way north from Fort Lauderdale.

    The staff at the gate was super friendly and I was pleasantly surprised by the availability of sites because I rolled in on the Friday at the start of a holiday weekend.

    There is a fishing pier, bike path along the river, boat launch area, communal restrooms, laundry room (although washing machine was out of order), and outdoor dish pit.

    I really enjoyed an evening stroll around the ponds where they have "glamping" tents set up.

    This campground is built on the site of an innovative stormwater catchment and treatment area, so it had some interesting info to learn about efforts to clean and control stormwater flow in the region.

    All in all, can't be upset about a campground with plenty of space and rainbow skies at sunset!

    Worth a Visit

    My husband and I rented a campground flat in December. It was on the water, had a grill, electrcitiy, fire pit, tent, running water and was pet friendly. We brought our kayaks and played around. Had a lot of space to walk our dogs. It was really a great time!

    Surrounded by water lilies...

    Adorable, enchanting island camping amongst water lilies, turtles, white ibis’, blue heron and friendly folks. Each of us are seeking “home” in nature. A variety of camping choices here. Staff is friendly and helpful. Nice paved and gravel trails throughout the small, but beautiful property. Near highway 95 for convenience. We brought our queen sized airmatress and it fits with plenty of space for changing clothes inside the adorable platform canvas tent home. We recently watched, “ Hell on Wheels” , a series on Netflix, about people who lived in a canvas makeshift tent cities who worked by day then found comfort in their tent homes and campfires by night. In the ole’ west, folks lived in canvas tents while they built the railroad. We are reflecting on the joy of tent life while discovering the USA. The canvas tents at Phipps Park, Martin County are perfect for group rentals and ideal for beginners. All in all, this is a well kept property, worthy of staying awhile if you are passing through.

    Stuck Without Options!

    3 campers and two RVs crammed into overflow. NO full hookups as indicated over the phone. Showers NOT in the “bath house” adjacent to these crummy sites. The dumpsite is between the office and the fence. This requires you to back into position or drive down a narrow path and make 3 tight turns. Florida has NO dump sites at rest or service areas! What????

    Real Lion Alarm Clock

    We tent camped here. Site small and sandy but location is the key to this KOA. Right next to Lion Country Safari. We are used to hearing birds and frogs when we camp, but here it is lions...and other noises I was not able to identify. Weather great to explore park in late Winter. Kids loved it and we will be back!

    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.

    West Palm Beach-Lion Country Safari KOA

    Great Family Campsite

    Very nice KOA , clean well presented , friendly staff. The lions waking you up in the morning is really pretty cool. LOTS of local channels and good internet. It's pretty far from most everything but its really the only game in town. Very peaceful and quite. Discount tickets to Lion Country Safari which is next to campground.

Glamping in Juno Beach, Florida offers convenient access to both Atlantic beaches and inland waterways with campsites situated within 15-20 miles of the coast. The subtropical climate creates year-round camping conditions with average winter temperatures rarely dropping below 60°F, though summer humidity and mosquitoes can be challenging for tent campers. Most campgrounds in the region remain accessible through Florida's mild winter season.

What to do

Wildlife viewing beyond safari parks: At West Palm Beach-Lion Country Safari KOA, the unique wildlife experiences extend beyond organized tours. "We live 1 hour south of this campground but we will definitely be going back for weekend trips," notes Burton M. The campground is gated during evening hours, with the gate closing at 10:00 pm, requiring a gate key card with a $20.00 deposit.

Fishing along waterways: Phipps Park Campground offers multiple water access points for anglers. "There is a fishing pier, bike path along the river, boat launch area, communal restrooms, laundry room, and outdoor dish pit," explains Tucker B. The park's location on an innovative stormwater catchment system creates unique fishing environments.

Watersports access: Several glamping options provide direct water access. "Great biking, easy access to boating, kayaking, and paddle boarding. Close to beaches and shopping so there's something for everybody to do," notes Patricia Pettersen C. about Phipps Park. Water-based activities are particularly accessible during winter months when temperatures remain mild.

What campers like

Unique morning sounds: West Palm Beach-Lion Country Safari KOA campers appreciate the distinctive wildlife calls. "The campground is pretty tight & the sites aren't very attractive but being next to the safari is awesome! You can hear the lions loud & clear!! The staff was nice," shares Amanda W. Many visitors mention the novelty of safari sounds replacing typical camping wildlife noises.

Well-maintained facilities: The Road Runner Travel Resort receives consistent praise for cleanliness. "The campground is probably the cleanest we had stayed in yet! Most spots are shaded. It seems like 75% of spots are full timers and 50% work," reports sur.la.route. Reviewers frequently mention the paved roads and super large lots that "you just don't find anymore."

Entertainment options: Glamping sites near Juno Beach offer organized activities beyond typical campground experiences.

Many resorts provide scheduled events like bingo, karaoke, and crafts.

What you should know

Tent camping limitations: Traditional tent camping options can be restricted at some parks. At Phipps Park Campground, "There are no tents allowed here. They have tents that are already set up on platforms and they have holes all over the sides and bottoms, so they are not sealed properly and full of mosquitoes," warns Mercy R. Many parks focus primarily on RV accommodations or platform tents.

Seasonal pricing fluctuations: Costs vary significantly by season, with peak winter months commanding premium rates. "At $99/night it is expensive and by not having the facilities of a KOA Holiday and being so far away from the Highway as a KOA Journey I can't give it 5 stars but, it is damn close," notes Ian R. about his stay at Lion Country Safari KOA.

Insect management: Mosquitoes can be problematic, particularly in warmer months. "When we were pulling in we noticed a train of 7-8 RVs and trailers leaving. Didn't think much of it. Went ahead and checked in, got to our camping site, etc. That's when we noticed that it was literally swarming with mosquitos," reports Daniel G. Bringing appropriate repellent is essential for comfortable glamping near Juno Beach.

Tips for camping with families

Pool access considerations: Quiet Waters Park offers family-friendly water features. "My husband and I rented a campground flat in December. It was on the water, had a grill, electricity, fire pit, tent, running water and was pet friendly. We brought our kayaks and played around," shares Ashley J. Many families appreciate the structured glamping options that reduce setup time.

Pet-friendly accommodations: Multiple glamping sites welcome pets with varying restrictions. "Had a lot of space to walk our dogs. It was really a great time!" continues Ashley J. about Quiet Waters Park. Pet policies typically include leash requirements and waste disposal expectations, with some parks providing designated pet areas.

Budget-friendly options: For families watching costs, Paradise Island RV Resort offers proximity to urban amenities. "Campground in the city, great guest services, friendly staff. Near grocery store, and everything! Full hookup sites, spots are big and concrete roads," explains Milagros B. Families can reduce food costs by accessing nearby stores.

Tips from RVers

Site selection priorities: At Lion Country Safari KOA, site quality varies considerably. "We were able to get an overnight reservation. Park was nice. Would have liked to stay longer. Most sites nice with good space. Had both concrete pads and gravel sites. Concrete were the nicest," advises Liz M. RVers consistently recommend requesting sites away from common areas for more privacy.

Extended stay considerations: Many RVers suggest longer bookings for better rates. "We discovered this place on a vacation trip to see a friend on Hutchinson Island in Fort Pierce FL. We are now camping here seasonally in a 35 ft Class A RV," shares Jessica A. about Road Runner Travel Resort. Seasonal rates often provide significant discounts compared to nightly fees.
