I've driven by the Big Cypress National Preserve several times, but this time I needed a place to overnight enroute to the East Coast and Lake Worth. There was a fire in the NW corner that was big news at the time, and I did drive through some light smoke when I left Naples on Rt 41, but the air cleared up and from the Monument Lake Campground it was clear skies and generally peaceful. I might suggest a speed limit of 5 mph not 15 to account for the cloud of dust that follows a vehicle at speed - When I entered the park I only idled the RV around the lake to my campsite. I would suggest when it's this dry to make a point to campers of only a creeping speed when passing other occupied campsites.

Only real issue is people coming off the highway to drive the loop around the lake sometimes driving too fast and kicking up dust. Quiet hours after 10PM - numerous campers are running their generators all night long and some around the clock.

Fantastic, well-run campground. Very clean and orderly. At least when I was there, it was relatively cool and breezy, so I didn't have any problem with bugs.

It was a lovely view, and conveniently located to boardwalks in Big Cypress Preserve. It was nice how every site was right by the lake. Host and other campers were friendly. Bathroom and shower were nice. Only issue was the alligators! They made us nervous going to the bathroom at night. :-P

The park ranger and other staff was very helpful . There is no electricity, but showers are available and they were clean confortable. Other guest were respectful with their generators and generally very quiet.

I camp here often because it's always a smooth experience. Nice clean bathrooms and showers, potable water available, relatively close to Miami and Naples, and good sites. The few alligators in the lake won't bother you. This last time we could not make a fire due to a very high fire risk but used a charcoal grill/ All good.
Hosts were very nice folks.
