Great Campground

Tent · With pets ·

This is a great campground , everything is clean and works as it should, like the showers, restroom and laundry and dryer units, there is a road that runs near it going into Marco Island that can be a little loud, but not annoying or happens too much, anything you need is only 4.5 mi ( Publix) to 8 miles away (walmart), there is a gas station a quarter mile away that sells a lot of items so you may not need to go too far anyway, stayed 5days and will stay there again if I go that way. Also dog friendly with plenty of doodoo stations and plenty of trails to walk or ride bike.

Mosquito hell! Thank goodness it was 50 degrees out and everyone had sweaters, long pants and long sleeves so it was bearable and we didn’t get bit thanks to all the clothing layers. We went for thanksgiving a few years ago and the mosquitos really made this otherwise fine campground quite annoying. I could not imagine staying here in hotter months. Stay well away in the summer; the mosquitos here are the size of 747s and there are many. It is by far the worst mosquito-infested place we have stayed in Florida.
