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!!!
