A small, but typical corps of engineers campground. Very clean and so pleasantly quiet. Nice staff and price was great too. Overall, I give Ortona a 5 / 5.

Need to stock up since LaBelle (the closest town, which does have great shopping and restaurants) is about 10 miles. Camp hosts are excellent, friendly & helpful. Entertainment is peaceful relaxation watching the boats lock through, lots of birds, and saw an alligator & several river otters in the canal that cuts through the middle of the Cg. Excellent Episcopal church about 7 miles west, and LaBelle has a great library next to a lovely park on tthe river, nice neighborhood to walk.
