2nd visit

This was my 2nd visit to the park. At 50 bucks for a tent site, it isn't cheap, but the sites can accommodate up to 3 tents. The scenery is very nice and the staff are helpful, would go again.

The campground was beautiful and the sites were somewhat spread out or had vegetation separating the sites. The guys in the shop were great to work with and very friendly

Very Nice Spot

Doing a 2 day weekend camping trip. The campground itself is pretty well maintained with decent albeit rather run down facilities. There are shaded spots available for tents and expansive views of the everglades. Temperatures have been perfect. It is expensive, at $45./night for a tent spot they are really pushing the envelope price wise but it's a worthwhile visit.
