A small but nice campground on the river. 50 and 30 amp power, water, but no sewer. A handy dump-station at the exit. We will visit again.

This was our second time staying here. We love the setting and the view of the river. The grounds are beautiful and very well maintained. The comfort station is clean and. The showers are nice with good water pressure. The park hosts were great also!!
Definitely will be coming back whenever we’re in the area!

We have visited W.P. Franklin many times and have always enjoyed our stay. We do not live very far away from the park and find that we use it for a few days of rest and relaxation. It is a nice quiet and peaceful time for us and use our time to play games and watch the boats travel the locks. We do explore the area quite often and the City of Ft. Myers is very near if you are looking for restaurants and a little more activity. Very nice, clean park!
