Clean and well maintained park was a pleasure to camp! Very quiet and great amenities. 10/10 will visit again!
Just be careful following the GPS/phone directions to the campground and follow the street signs. If not, you'll wind up about 1/4 mile East in the Indian Village.

The place is beautiful! Had a great spot in #14. The ranger and the Host were very helpful and friendly.
It turns out I wasn't very prepared for the onslaught of mosquitoes. Millions. We ended up packing up 3 hours after setting up.

unexpectedly beautiful campground. We had site #3 and stay one more night at site #1
Even though the lake was artificially created, it is a very beautiful place.
The bathrooms are very well maintained and were extremely clean!
The highlight, in addition to the many alligators in the lake, was that we were able to see a bear in the morning directly behind site #3 (about 100 feet away)

Well maintained campground with clean bathrooms and a hot water shower. Perfect for a peaceful retreat away from populated coasts of South Florida.
The hosts are exceptionally friendly and accommodating, contributing to a welcoming atmosphere.

Wir hatten pure Entspannung mit ein wenig Thrill.
Im See eher nicht baden. Die Alligatoren mögen das nicht.
Anlage super sauber und gepflegt.
Moskitospray nicht vergessen.
Viel Spaß

Mostly empty campground which was great! There were just enough neighbors to enjoy and play with our kids. Restrooms were clean. So many activities to enjoy at Big Cypress and free canoeing and wet walks.

Beautiful location on a lake! Sites are a little close together. Lots of generators running mornings and evenings.

Gators in the lake were cool. Weather was hot, humid, and buggy which was a little uncomfortable without electricity. Info board at entrance was helpful. Enjoyed wildlife including birds, dragonflies, and butterflies. Visitor center staff was good. Activities and sights all required driving. Canoe trip was booked a few weeks out.

Loved the area and the hosts were kind. The camp sites were very close together. Saw a gator. Could hear the animals.
