A small, busy, out of the way location. Very quiet and peaceful. We missed having bike trails to ride from the park. There are some nearby within a relatively short drive. It is convenient to Ft Meyers and the Everglades.

Excellent facility, friendly helpful staff, clean restrooms and great views of the lock/river and boat traffic. Lots of aquatic bird life to watch.

This property is beautiful and so much fun. I have always had fun with the campers and everyone has been so polite. The hosts are volunteers and sometimes your experience with them is better than others.
