We had a great experience. Very nice park attendants & beautiful park. It seemed to be out in the boondocks but seeing the deer just about every morning & an alligator swimming by was well worth it. We would recommend it highly & would definitely visit again.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. The park host and attendant were welcoming and accommodating; really nice! The park was beautifully maintained and the only reason I could not give a 5-star rating is: No sewer hookups available, water hookup was awkward (located maybe 45-50 ft from our campsite), water has very unpleasant taste (even with filter) so we drove to purchase bottled water and finally, we had very poor cellphone reception with Verizon and AT&T. Whew! Having said all of that, we did LOVE it ! Very serene and a place we will definitely return to in the future!

I have been coming to Cottonshed for many years. Great place to camp and fish. You will see Bald eagles, alligators, plenty of species of ducks and can catch several types of fish.

Absolutely beautiful lakeside campground, located peacefully in the middle of nowhere! Clean, nice large RV spots.
The lake is stunning!
Extremely helpful and friendly camp hosts.
One if the best campsites we have ever stayed in, throughout the whole USA.
Wish we could have stayed longer.

We visit this campground regularly and always have good experiences. The caretaker is exceptional. My husband broke his ankle on our last trip and Stan was so helpful and considerate and constantly checked on us to make sure we were okay. We appreciated him so much. He does an excellent job taking care of the grounds as well.
