Lesson learned, again; always kick the plastic power box lid before opening it. Wasps living there weren't happy and stung me. Otherwise a good, quiet, camping experience.

I’ve been coming to the lock for the last 5 years and always have a great experience. Things would be better if the fishing pier was repaired. Also, the last couple of times we were there you couldn’t cross over the bridge to at least fish on the other side of the lock.

Nice campground, bathrooms clean, only a few sites were occupied over the weekend as we were there in 95+ degrees summer peak. The fishing pier is under repair. Will return during seasonal Florida (November - April).
