Needed a place to get away from a storm. Burns Lake was easy to get to, and had nice clean pull through spots with an easy turn around the lake to get back out. Saw a couple gators and caught a few fish while I was there. Pretty quiet, only a couple other overnighters. Would definitely go back.

Very small camping area, maybe 10 RV sites on one side of the small lake & 10 tent sites on the other side. 1 vault toilet on each side. No water available. But very beautiful & quiet. Not "buggy" when we were there.

This campground was exactly what I was looking for. The camp host were AMAZING!!! They were super friendly and very eager to talk to us and share their knowledge of the area. Night at the grounds were very quite and sleeping was not an issue. This place was very clean and the so were the restrooms. My wife and daughters liked this place and as such, we already have plans to use the camp again very soon.

Ground was very muddy and tons of mosquitos. Booked for 2 nights seated within 5 hours. The kids a week later still has the bites all over their bodies. We had thermal cells, off bug spry, off candles. Kids mosquito bracelets. We used red lights for visibility. Horrible waste of money. Plus we had a gator that kept trying to attack us.
