We booked 5 sites with our friends..So nice to have this ability in a state that is very hard to get reservations. As locals it was a nice treat.. The camp host was informative and pleasant to deal with. The shower was so surprisingly large and had hot water.. Very clean.. One of the best showers stall I have experienced in a campground. Though there is only one.. worth any wait. Great stay.. great photos at sunrise

Nice spot to stay in the middle of Everglades. There was only one thing that we wish was there - hot water for bath. Everything else was just great.

The site was over priced. The host did not enforce any of the rules. I had kids on electric bikes riding in and out of my site hitting my tent guy lines. There is only one shower stall for 2 campgrounds. The people staying in full hook up sites next to the tent sites were rude. I won't be back.

We stayed 2 nights at Monument Lake so that we could go to the Wild Hog BBQ. It was perfect for this, so close by. Good camp host, friendly other campers, sites not too crowded together, clean restrooms, and we loved watching the Purple martins!

Very nice, quiet campground. The host was welcoming and was happy to let us set up camp a little earlier than check in time. Very nice bathroom and shower. Only downside was one shower. We would definitely stay here again.
