The campground was very quiet and private. The comfort station was clean and the shower had great water pressure. The bugs were much less of an issue than they were when we camped at Flamingo the previous night but I would still recommend bug spray at the minimum.

The sites are nice and big! We easily fit our 37' RV and our car within the site. The bathrooms were clean and there are showers available.
Mosquitos were heavy at the location. So were alligators....2 big ones that were visible in the lake everyday. No hook ups at the sites. It is beautiful and peaceful and good cell reception for both ATT and Verizon.

We spent one night at Monument Lake. It was quiet and the area was clean. The fire pit had a grill for cooking. We saw one good sized alligator in the lake.

This was 360 degree nature. Terrific! Campsites 27-34 have nice gravel pads. Sunset in one direction across the lake and sunrise the other direction behind campsite. Lots of birds. Saw only one alligator cruising the lake. Cell tower very close to sites 35-38. 4G service
