Pull through established campsites with a fire ring and picnic table. All the sites have views of placid, beautiful Burns Lake. The fishermen there were not catching fish, but it's a peaceful setting with minimal wildlife.

Very convenient, flat pull through sites. We have a self contained sprinter van so did not need hookups. Great sunset view of the Everglades.

Awesome camp. I will revisit this camp every time I’m in the area. My favorite spot is the loop road for bird photography.
