Stayed for 3 days in site #30. Our coach has solar and a generator, so it wasn't difficult being that the campground has no electrical service at the sites. Water fill on the way in by the bath house. The bath house was very well attended and clean. We enjoyed taking a couple of drives on the Big Cypress Loop Rd. just down from the campground. Also close to Everglades City. Sites were well spaced and level.

Great little campground - clean restrooms, friendly camp host and a pretty cool Ranger talk. Site 4 is a perfect spot for a large family - lots of extra room

Nice campground right off route 41. All the RV sites are around the lake which provides a nice 3/4 mile walk to start your day. It was dry camping with no dump but water is available and a dump is 8 miles down the road at Midway campground. Cell service is 5 bars. Very nice campground. Very nice experience. We will go back!

Very peaceful dry camping. Sites spaced out well. Roomier than Midway Campground. Would forego electric at Midway to stay here again.

The facilities were awesome and the camp hosts very helpful.
Our biggest complaint is all the generator nose coming from surrounding campers. We don't use a generator. The campground needs a "No Generators" area

Loved this location. Seemed to be in the center of the preserve. I have a stargazing window and the night sky didn’t disappoint. Sunrise and sunset were amazing.
The volunteers and park guest were friendly and helpful. The shower (only one) was great and the accessory holder was a bonus.
Posted was a list of activities to schedule through the visitor center. I went on two different swamp walks. Two total different experiences. The rangers are very knowledgeable.
I hope to go back for more adventures.

There’s about 5 alligators there. One great blue heron. Pretty quiet.
