Basic but nice, clean campground. Hot showers. Very friendly hosts. The lake was full of gators. It was a little difficult to exercise the dog since I couldn't walk her close to the lake and dogs aren't allowed on any trails in Big Cypress (for good reason). I'd love it if campgrounds with strict dog regulations had designated dog exercise areas- just putting that out there. Big Cypress is beautiful! I'd stay at Monument Lake again.

Pulled into Monument Lake experiencing a mechanical problem. Had a five day reservation, so I had plenty of time to call a tow rig to pull to a shop. After talking to Chris and the rest of the volunteers, I was told to not worry about time, that they would work with me and to not worry about checking out deadline! What a load off my mind! After John gave me directions to a cluster of auto parts stores in Naples, I was able to spend a day and round up all the parts and tools I would need to make the repair! Luckily, my camp neighbor, who was a farmer, was very knowledgeable in fixing combines in the field! WE fixed it, now it's good to go back to Pennsylvania! Still had three days to enjoy the area, really enjoy this campground and thanks to all who chipped in and let me focus on repairing my rig! Good internet, new shower, Great Church, First Baptist of Everglade City.
