Nice, quiet site on a huge pond with alligators! Campground manager Chris was very nice and helpful. Restrooms were clean and stocked. There are no hook ups but great cell coverage, unlike the other campsites. If you stay in one of the parks' campsites, you have privileges to use the water/dump at the other sites in the park.

If you’d like to see a gator then come here. Nice park with a great staff was a bonus.

Beautiful campground, but didn't expect to be overwhelmed by class A's and the din of generators at a primitive campground. At sunset everyone but us was in their motorhomes. We had the only campfire in the whole place.

The camp hosts were very nice and welcoming. The campsite was just what we needed and the alligators were very cooperative in their exbisitions. I'd stay here again on my next trip without a doubt. Since this might not be everyones cup of tea I preface - the cell signal is great because there's a town 100 yards from the site.
