Great campsite. It has a trail and a lake for fishing. Theres lots to do near by including more trails, the skunk ape research headquarters, and the big cypress visitor center.

The campground was lovely, neat and clean. The campground host was friendly, welcoming, and gave us lots of important information.
The tent sites are grassy and reasonably flat.

Very nice little campground on the lake. The property and sites were clean and well maintained. As well as the restrooms and shower. I enjoyed my stay and would come back again.

Good central location to explore Big Cypress and the northern Everglades. Site was level and had good spacing from any neighbors. Watch out for the alligators in the lake! Typical NPS campground: no hookups, no shade, limited services.

Great to have showers and cell service and see gator's everyday in the lake. Another drought,so no campfires. Must do Loop Rd, visitor center, Shark Valley, HavAnnA cafe and Joanie's.
