I stayed in #2. It was lakefront. I had a myriad of ibis, egret and others as a continual backdrop to my view along. I saw daily the1 alligators that live there. It’s quiet, relatively small. You can walk around the lake easily and the staff is gracious and knowledgeable. The bathrooms are clean. It is more of a rustic site. If I’m in the area, I will definitely choose this place again.

This is a great central location if you want to be close to some cool things to do within the preserve. It’s well maintained by the staff and we camp here just about every year.

Very well kept campground. Unfortunately we only stopped by overnight but would have enjoyed staying there a few days. Maybe next trip.

Seclusion was great! Wildlife great! Access to bathrooms was great! Ample space, and access to grills were superb! However, There was 2 bright lights at the main restrooms, which, in my opinion, took away from seeing the Milky Way. (This was on a new moon night)

its still a good place to camp but it will never be as easy and reflective of the Gladesmans culture as it used to be and should be. It is more of a N{S preferred targeted visitor than those of us who lived and roamed the Big Cypress before the NPS took over and turned it into more of a Park for the snow birds
