We visited in May 2022. Very clean and quiet. We enjoyed watching the boats pass through the locks as well as the wild life! Highly recommend!

Lovely spacious campground, very quiet at night. Weekend mornings somewhat busy with an active boat ramp. Nice and clean.

We were running late (about 2 hours) from checkin time. Got a cell call from Missie (sp) just checking to make sure we were okay and going to be arriving on scheduled day. What a great surprise! She cared about us. Told us to just go to site and she would get with us after we settled in. AND YES she came by to check on us after we had set up. GREAT volunteer.

Our federal campgrounds and COE are fantastic. They are kept immaculate. The hosts as a rule are wonderful. Being a Florida resident, I wish our state campgrounds were maintained as well.
