This was my first time using this app, so I didn’t know what to expect… and let me say that it far exceeded my expectations! Vito the owner couldn’t be more friendly and accommodating! I had an issue that was a million percent my fault… I cut the corner too tight coming in and got stuck in the ditch. If this happens to you, just call Priority Towing and they’ll come get you out the way you went in!!! Vito was so helpful throughout that whole thing! The property is beautiful and peaceful. If you have dogs, there is a very well-kept backyard, but you can also walk them on the sidewalk of the main road. Would most definitely recommend this very cool and hip camp!

So peaceful and beautiful. Nice little beach. Of course there are weeds and some rocks, it is the Keys. But both of these provide a place for the fish and other aquatic creatures to live. We went snorkeling one day and watched the fish swim under us. We also used our paddle boards to enjoy some of the coast line. Jack and his family are friendly and I thank them for sharing their slice of paradise with us. We will be back in January.

This property was very peaceful and calming. I was able to put my kayak on the private beach and go out at my leisure. Fish on the private dock. And my campsite was rather private with nice lights and a beautiful fire ring. I also felt secure with the closed gate. I couldn't have asked for a better getaway.

Jack’s place is beautiful! My family planned on spending 4 nights there that turned into 6 nights after having truck problems and not being able to leave. Jack was very accommodating and there’s no better place to get stuck.
The kids had a blast fishing off the dock, snorkeling and seeing all kinds of wildlife. Very quiet area and having full hook ups was a huge plus. Will definitely stay here again if ever in Key Largo!

Jack has a great setup and was helpful upon arrival. We loved being on the water and our kids enjoyed the yard to play in. Being from the East Coast of FL, we especially enjoyed the amazing sunset spot. Thanks for sharing your place with us! We hope to be back soon.

We found Jack’s place at Bayside Beach camp through an internet search. Living in Australia and going on our adventure we were basically relying on reviews. Bayside Beach Camp reviews were outstanding so we followed our dreams, ending our trip by staying four nights. What a wonderful experience. Jack and his family were so obliging and accommodated a couple of Aussies with open arms. Tranquil, beautiful, relaxing and a memorable visit. Highly recommend Bayside Beach Camp. The sunsets and setting, spectacular. Thanks Jack! Love Pete and Ange

Jack accommodated me for a last-minute reservation on an impulse trip to the Keys in emotional preparation for a major life event. Jack was kind, and communicative and respected my space and privacy while being responsive and considerate of my needs during my time there. The grounds were beautiful; Jack sent me a list of favorite restaurants and recommendations in the area. Really beautiful, peaceful and safe place to be.

My wife, cat and I stayed at Vito's for 6 weeks! while working remotely and exploring the area. We lived out of our travel trailer in Vito's larger RV site and shared the property with the occasional neighbor Hipcamper.
This is a great spot for a longer-term stay! Mind you, while we had 50 amp power, we shared the water supply (hose was long enough to reach our trailer), and did not have a sewage hookup. Vito kinda recommended a local pump out service for our tanks. We only ended up using them a couple of times as we took the camper down to the keys for a long weekend amidst our stay.
The property is beautiful, quiet and peaceful. A perfect place to stay, away from the city, but close enough to all the conveniences and easy to take day trips or weekend adventures to beaches like Jupiter, Palm Beach, Miami and even the keys.
Vito was an excellent host. Thank you so much!

The best waterside camping in South Florida guide
Where to go
The Everglades National Park
The Everglades holds the title of the largest subtropical wilderness in the United States. Given this size, campers have plenty to see across the park’s grasslands and forests. RV and tent campgrounds come with showers, dump stations, trail access, and even grills. Once you check-in, take a leisurely hike, and try to spot flamingos, osprey, and an assortment of local species.
Biscayne National Park
Like the Everglades, Biscayne is, indeed, a national park, but it opens a different window to Southern Florida’s natural environment. Not far from Miami, Biscayne comes with glistening seas that welcome fish, coral reefs, and snorkelers alike. If you want to unwind, kick back on the sand and soak up the scenery. If you’d prefer a more active camping getaway, grab your scuba gear, kayak, or fishing pole, and take to the water.
The Florida Keys
Salt air, vibrant sunsets, and Ernest Hemingway’s cats—the Florida Keys do it all. Key West not only marks Florida’s southernmost point, but claims the title of the country’s southernmost city. Campers can snorkel, swim, and lounge at a coastal campground. Once you’ve explored your campsite, visit Dry Tortugas National Park for even more views. A night of stargazing from your tent site may leave you tired, so grab a cuban coffee and let the Keys energize you.
When to go
Before you go camping in South Florida, consider the weather, mosquitoes, and wildlife. Avoid coastal Florida during hurricane season, especially if you’re planning a getaway to the Florida Keys. Summer in the Everglades likewise brings bugs, whereas winter’s dry season opens the door for spotting wildlife. However, winter does come with crowds, especially in national parks and resort towns. Spring and fall make for the most neutral camping seasons.
