W.P. Franklin campground is highly praised for its cleanliness, well-maintained facilities, and friendly staff, making it a favorite for many visitors. The serene river surroundings and well-spaced sites offer a relaxing atmosphere for fishing and enjoying nature. However, concerns about excessive speed bumps and some strict monitoring by hosts were noted, with suggestions for improvement on these aspects.

They were closed when I got there and had closed for the storm hurricane Milton. I never received a refund and waited on a phone for over an hour to receive my refund. Keep the $15 as a donation to do better notifying people you’re closed before they travel there
