The campground was beautiful and everyone was very friendly. It was also nice to have cell service there since most of the Evergladed we did not.

It was super noisy with people running their generators all day and started again at 6.30am. Certain generator hours would be good.

Quiet campground in the heart of Big Cypress. Nice lake, clean restroom, shower is a little cold but it works. No hookups, but pottable water is available. Most campsites have a tree or two for some shade. Perfect for base camp while exploring the area.

Monument Lake campground was a great stay! Camp hosts were all friendly and knowledgeable. We stayed in a travel trailer and the site pad was more than adequate. Great views of the lake and surrounding marshy areas.

We enjoyed our stay, other campers/RVers were friendly, we saw a gator, the moon was bright and so were the stars. Very clean bathroom + shower, friendly staff as well. Decent size campsite, good fire pit and grill. Great cell service for T-Mobile. Firewood nearby for purchase. Overall great stay!
