NOT CLEAR PARKING!!! You have to drive over the grass to your spot to park for tent camping. At night the fire rings are not visible. Long story short . . . I hit one with the front of my car and blew out the tire. My next-door tent neighbor also hit his car on a fire ring the night before. Monument Lake should either add a reflective coating to the fire rings or create paved parking areas so that this doesn't happen in the future. Bummer to spend $185 on a new tire on my vacation!

Very nice campground. Quiet, clean, and surrounded by natural beauty. We’ll visit again. Good access to Shark Valley.

Arrived following a poring rain on bicycles and the host and hostess could not have been more accomodating to us. From making sure our sites were as high (and dry) as possible to using the bathroom facilities to get dried out they were super helpful. We just wish that the rain had let up for us to see the star show it is famous for.

Nice campground. Clean toilets (cleaned every day). Overall impressions are satisfactory. You can spend a couple of days in this place. The only negative is that there are no attractions around, but people come here for peace and nature.

We only stayed in this campground one night, but we found it to be clean the sites were pretty big. We have a 43’ motor home and we found it a little challenging to get into our site only because the ground was a bit soft and our front tires slid instead of steering us into our site. That little problem aside, it’s a very quiet campground and overlooks a really beautiful lake complete with a few gators to complete the FL experience. The camp hosts were very friendly.
