This place is gorgeous! Quiet, clean, well taken care of. The hosts are the best! Very friendly and they make sure you are happy and comfortable. It is off-grid/boondocking/no hook ups, but there is a water hose open for anyone to use.
The alligators and birds and turtles are amazing to see! AND they just stick to themselves. We saw the alligators every single day, and it was really cool to just see them in their own environment. At first it was scary, cause they were RIGHT THERE! BUT they really do stay in the lake, or on the side of the lake, right near the signs that say to stay away from the alligators. haha!
I completely recommend this place for camping with no hook ups. After traveling the country in an RV full time for almost a year, I can honestly say that this was one of my favorite places to stay.

It's a nice campground to stay at near the Everglades. There isn't much as far as hiking or other activities to make it a destination. Overall a pleasant experience and I would recommend if you are going to try and see Shark Valley or somewhere nearby.

Had a wonderful trip to Big Cypress and the Everglades. The campground was great! Had drinking water, a large outdoor sink for doing dishes, and restrooms. The tent-only campsites have a picnic table (which states each spot's number) as well as a fire pit area that includes a grate on a swivel for cooking food or putting a pan on top of it. We enjoyed the dark skies for star gazing! There is a road nearby so we did hear some cars traveling in the evening, but overall it was quiet and peaceful. We saw an alligator in the lake, so be careful with children and pets! March was a perfect time of year to go as there were no mosquitos during our visit. The lake offered a nice cooling breeze.
