Well maintained and clean campground with beautiful views of the Caloosahatchee river. Friendly volunnteers provide excellent assistance.

I liked the campground because it was surrounded by water, most sites are waterfront. The bathrooms were clean with a fantastic hand dryer. Some of the negatives were the lot wasn't clean, a lot of cigarette butts in firepit and a used plastic oil container was thrown on the side of the lot by electrical outlet. I understand the hurricane tore the bathroom roof off but they were scattered in the back of the lot. P.S. groundkeepers should be equipped with battery powered trimmer, blowers rathers than smelling exhaust.
