Great camp ground host. Nice clean bathrooms. Contractor that put the shower floor in did a terrible job with the drainage.

Came here with my bf and had a nice time they had very clean bathrooms and hot showers which wasn't listed so that was a plus . Woke up looked out at the lake and seen 2 gators so that was nice. It was very quiet . We can't wait to take the kids .

I arrived to monument lake and found the site I reserved already occupied. Walter and his wife told me I had to deal with person if I wanted them to move.
The facilities were nice and clean, but the camp host is old and spineless. Both Walter and his wife made my experience terrible.

Prefect camping location near Shark Valley NP. Nice tent sites and very quiet. Flush toilets, potable water available, and hot showers (not listed on the NPS site so that was a plus). Plenty of alligators to view in Monument Lake.
We took the 1/2 day naturalist and fan boat tour in Shark Valley with Wild Lime. It was a great tour.

I love the way they updated this campground. The showers are wonderful. The camp hosts are so nice and very helpful. We enjoyed our 10 days exploring all around the campground. We counted 7 alligators that live in the lake. It was fun to see them laying around the shore in the sun.
