Palmetto Ridge Campground is Great
Great campground for any type of camping. All sites at Palmetto Ridge are full hookup and many sites are pull through. ATT WiFi is fast enough to stream YouTube and YouTube TV via my Apple TV box tethered to my iPhone.

Not a typical campground
If you are a traditional camper stay away. This place is mainly for trucks and ATV’s. There is sugar sand everywhere and my car got stuck. After they helped me get out I left.

Palmetto Ridge Campground — Myakka River State Park
Beautiful "old Florida" park
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.

Shellmound Campground
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.

The best campground
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.
Jack B.GuideThousand Trails Peace River
Peace River, peaceful camping
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.

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.

This is our 2nd time at Myakka River State Park and it doesn't disappoint. We stayed at the PR section with full hookups. Site was spacious and the park even had smiling gators.
Robert P.GuidePeace River Campground
Bring Earplugs
I camped in the wilderness area which is somewhat disconnected from the main RV site. There are trails which are used by ATV's and up until 10pm its noisy. You also get quite a lot of noise from the divided highway which runs adjacent to the site. Getting to the wilderness area can be a bit challenging if you don’t have 4 wheel drive as the trails that lead you there are comprised of Sugar Sand. If you are a party until the wee small hours kind of camper or RV’r then you might enjoy this site and there are lots of activities to keep kids and adults occupied, however if you are more interested in a laid back quieter time then this probably won’t fit the bill.

Lovely park, messed up way to run a park
We have a lovely site right up against a Floridian stand of woods. The site is big and open for a private campground and plenty of space for a family. The site is 30amp and no sewage. You have to drive around and pick a 30 amp site then you are entered into a lottery system after you get to your site to move to a 50 amp site with sewage. We were here and pulled into the driveway at 12:06 (check-in time of noon) specifically to get what we want for our rig. Rather than have to move again, we stayed in our site and decided to just use the honey wagon. First off, you get one honey wagon visit per week. Really!?!?!? Second, unless you book it a week or two before, there is no way to get a Wednesday appointment. Considering this is a campground without sewage, why would you have only one honey wagon without enough ability to service your customers? Thank goodness for a 36 gallon poop-tote. Location is great but, this is a private campground with State Park like lack of amenities.

Amazing Camping Experience
We heard so many great things from friends and boy did this place live them up! This was our first trip here even though we live only 1 hour away. Great primitive camping sites. Amazing trails for ATV use and mudding. Will definitely be back! Staff was friendly and helpful. A must visit!

Great spot
Super close to a nice beach. Birds were so cool. Everything worked. Park was clean. Good size lots.

Cayo Costa State Park Campground
Beach camping paradise
This place is special. Best beach oriented camping in Florida. The shelling is amazing and you truly feel like you have traveled back in time. We have camped there in a tent site three times in the last year. The campground closed for several months in summer 2021 to eradicated the rodents. It worked! We did not see or hear one rodent when we stayed for three nights in November 2021. If campers / visitors will keep a clean camp site and not leave food and garbage out, the rodents should stay under control.
No problem with bugs in the dry season, but you still need some bug spray at dawn and dusk.

Thousand Trails Peace River
Just OK
Getting into a site with sewer thru the lottery was time consuming , but we did get a decent site the day after we arrived. The amenities are tired and in need of an update or repair. They do seem to have a good activities schedule and the staff is very nice. You have to pay $5 per package delivery. It’s right on Route 17, so you can hear traffic from a lot of the sites. Not much to do in Wauchula.

Its.. a nice place
It takes an hour to drive to the closest beach, Almost everything inside the campground closes 8pm including the pool and the office and the laundry. The spaces are very tight and there is some pretty strict rules that I was unfamiliar with, Including I couldn't put my little doggy fence up in the grass next to my camper. The man that came around in the golf cart with the rule book was a very horrible person. Aside from that everybody else was very nice and the campground is actually well kept and it is nice.

Peace River Campground
Interesting place. Bring a quad
Super crowded, busy and loud campground. This isnt a quiet nature get Way its a two stroking music blasting party spot. The kids were all having fun, adults too. Hot showers, food trucks and plenty of dirt trails for exploring.
- Daniel B.Scout
Thousand Trails Peace River
Nice location few amenities.
Patty in the office refused to even speak to me on the phone because there was a person in the office. Wouldn't let me hold, didn't want me to call back. Then she ended up as my neighbor and told me where I could and couldn't put things on my lot so she could park her van. So customer service is definitely lacking. Laundry room is small and always full go to the laundry mat. Lots are not first come first served the do a lottery no matter what time you arrive, first it was at noon, then moved to 1, then to 2. So everyone that arrived after you has the same chance to get a coveted full hook up site. In the mean time you must pick a 30 amp no sewer site to wait for the lottery. They are hoping you don't want to move again. The truck to pump out your rig is impossible to book yet they pump themselves out next door daily as well as pumping out their friends every other day. Again such a lack of customer service in order to provide a better experience for the employees at the expense of the paying members. Ridiculous!

Thousand Trails Peace River
Great Campground
Great campground in the middle of nowhere. This campground offers a lot for people that just want to get away and chill and enjoy what the park has to offer. We where here for 2 weeks in January and the park is 80% full.
We are here with our Thousand trails park membership. When you arrive to the park you are told to go find a site you would like to be in and then go up to the office and let them know. Because it is full on in season you are asked to find a site that is in the green section (map is in my photos) which are 30 amp non sewer sites. If you would like a 50 amp sewer site, yellow section on the map, you will then go up to the office to get on the list for the lottery of the sites available and these will be called off at 2 pm. The list for the sites that will be available on the board outside the office The day we arrived I did get on the list and did get called but chose to stay where we are. I really liked our site tucked under the trees on Ave A. Then I scheduled the honey wagon to come twice during our 2 weeks here. There's only two of us in our RV so this works out fine. If you want to stay in a site that is non sewer and you need the honey wagon more then every 7 days there is a small cost for that. psst don't forget to tip the honey wagon guy Many people have the black tank tote and use that while staying in the non sewer sites.
The park has a actives calendar and has stuff scheduled every day. It was nice to see a lot of stuff scheduled for the kids.
There is a great hiking trail that I ran many times while in the park and the peace river runs east of the park There are many spots you can look for fossils in the river. While I was here a kid really found a Megalodon tooth that was quite exciting We did put our Kayaks in here at the boat launch but due to the water being so low we didn't really get to go very far We ended driving up to pains creek a few miles and did a float trip back to the park. Then we just took our electric bikes back up to the drop off point to retrieve our jeep. We really liked this park and are scheduled to be back for a couple weeks in Feb.
