Third time tent camping here. Easy check in. When booking the website would not accept my discount for having my lifetime pass. The grass needed to be mowed.

Terrible place. No help in person or on the phone.
Sewer drain under water. “Potable water” very sketchy.
Mosquitos will carry you away in the sunshine. Only stayed one night and had to forfeit the rest of the reservation.
Edit to Review: You can file a refund request on Recreation.gov after the reservation ends! I didn’t expect to hear anything but just got notice of refund over a month later. Thank you!

This was my second visit to the midway campground. The first visit was wonderful so I wanted to return while my son was visiting. No problems getting a site like before so I was a little surprised. When I arrived at the campground, the place was deserted! There was no camp host - and maybe just a couple of RVs inside. I realize this is summer and camping in Florida in the middle of summer is not everyone's cup of tea. Then why charge reservation fees when you do not provide any amenities? The grass was uncut - the whole place was filled with weeds and most of the sites were unusable because of the bugs and overgrown vegetation. There was waterlogging at most of the sites which made the
Even then we were okay since we could pick another site (our reserved site was unusable - there was a huge hornet nest right on the picnic bench!) - but the bathrooms were closed and locked, no water and just a handwritten sign saying "Use bathrooms at Oasis visitor center" - which is a 2.5 mile drive. So every time we needed to use the bathroom we had to leave our gear, tent and bikes at the site unprotected and drive 2.5 miles to use the restroom.
If no amenities will be provided, shouldn't that be specified at the campsite and in the reservation page so we could be appropriately prepared? Sadly, this hurt our view of this campground after this trip.
I recommend not camping here during the summer months (not sure when that starts though in Floda since it is pretty much warm all the time :)
But if you are going to camp, and not use an RV, check to make sure the place will have the amenities.

This is a quiet campground. Has power to sites. No water or sewer at site. Water available near dump station. The most surprising is no bath houses.

So many mosquitoes we needed a transfusion afterwards. Our fault for thinking we could come to Everglades in summer. But BE WARNED! Unless you like clouds of hundreds of tiny vampires come in the winter!
