Very scenic location, you can watch boat navigate through the locks. Close to stores and other businesses. Tucked away behind a residential area. There was some confusion on our reservations as a result of me have to reschedule but the attendant was very pleasant and it worked out just fine.

Lots are good sized and some large trees are close buy so stringing up a clothesline do dry our scuba gear was not an issue. 50 amp hookup at every site and some had two water spigots available. Nice gravel area for the picnic table and the canopies placed over the tables actually provided shade where needed. Each site has an outdoor grill, fire pit with grate and a lantern post. Easy back in to every spot and some are drive through.

The dump station is just as you leave and has a long hose for flushing.

Some of the sites are on the waters edge, you can fish from your picnic table. We saw locals fishing and landing fish. Some BIG boats come through the locks and that' neat to watch.

Staff are available and very easy going. They make the rounds but respect your privacy.

A most excellent camp site.

Nice place to camp. Can watch the boats go by. Close to a lot of East coast beaches and activities. A little rundown compared to a couple years ago. The visitor center is closed and volunteers run things. Good people, but the facilities could use a little update and clean-up.

I liked the facility and the staff. The volunteers were super nice and very helpful. I just wish that I had known that the launch at Phipp Park (sp) was out of commission.

I really enjoyed my experience at St Lucie South. My camp site was very well taken care of, clean, and well-equipped with a charcoal grill and fire ring. I would definitely recommend this campground to friends and family.

Such a quiet peacefull place. Enjoyed watching the boats go through the locks. Close by to historic downtown Stuart makes for a nice evening. Beaches are no more than 1/2 hour away with free parking.
