Monument Lake Campground

Beautiful lake with birds and gators. We were just there for one night but have been before. Bring your bike to go ride at shark valley. Definitely eat at Joanies

Great place, clean bathroom, very quiet place and amazing experience!

The road traffic was a bit noisy at times but other than that we enjoyed our time there (one night tent stay on our way to Key Largo)

Very Clean, The Campground host were very informative and helpful. We Loved staying there. We will be going back to camp there again.

Hello !
We really enjoyed the tranquility (far from the road), the absence of big spotlights (really dark at night), the friendly personnel and volunteers, the recycling ben.
I strongly recommend the sites no 13 to 26 because of the presence of trees and mature palm trees (shade).

One night, we had a neighbour who had it's generator run for 3 to 4 hours starting at 6 PM, so they could watch TV - 40 in. screen. So we had supper, we read and we went to bed at the sound of the generator and at the voice of the characters on TV.
So I would recommend that the use of generators would be allowed for a limited time. Exemple : 2 hours in the morning (8 am to 10 am) and at night 6 PM to 8 PM.
Note : I sleep with a CPAP and I don't need the generator to run. Batteries are sufficiant for all night.

Thank you very much !

The campground hosts were fantastic. They kept the campground spotless, engaged with all the campers, made suggestions for excursions throughout the preserve and were so welcoming.

Best hosts ever!

We stayed two nights. The sunrise and sunset were beautiful! The shower was a great addition we weren’t aware of until after we arrived. Hosts were amazing!

Beautiful lake at the campground complete with Alligators, Egrets, Herons, Osprey, and Swallows dancing as the sun rose. This campsite is for you if you love wildlife and the outdoors.
Quite buggy in the evenings (as to be expected) and not much shade, but there are flushing toilets, showers and a large outside sink for washing dishes.
The camp hosts were very friendly and informative.

It’s close to a number of different boardwalks found along route 41 at rest stops, rec areas and visitor centres that never failed to disappoint in terms of wildlife viewing when we visited in January. We saw over 30 gators in the river beside the Oasis visitor centre. Bring your binoculars for a heightened experience!

I camped at Monument Lake for three nights. Very clean and quiet. Plenty of hot water for showers and well-maintained bath houses. Had to travel outside of park to find firewood. Plenty of alligator siting's and birds of all types. Enjoyed exploring and hiking on nearby trails. Excellent Verizon cell phone coverage.
