I'm used to staying in motels but my girlfriend and I wanted to make our week in Florida a memorable one so we decided on camping. I only paid for two days in advance based on the one bad review, but I think they must have stayed somewhere else because the Manatee Hammock Campground was wonderful. After the first night,... More

The experience we had here for the 3 nights in a tent site was horrific. The horrific smell was unmanageable. We were told it was where the grass meets the river water and it causes a rotten egg smell. We are from a state of 10,000 lakes and we have never smelt something so horrific before. We are avid tent... More

Beautiful tent campsites! They are full of trees and the view of the water is amazing. There are no tent pads, so you just throw your tent anywhere. The bathrooms were always clean and the showers were hot! We didn't use the pool since it was so cold but it would be nice for next time.

Me and my husband camped here this past weekend, and we chose to stay an extra night. The weather was pretty bad but we made the best of it. We got the best site, which was a very minimal walk to the Indian River, we could see it from our tent. Campgrounds are clean and everyone was very friendly. Employees... More

This is a first in my experience. A blend of long term residents many apparently down on their luck to high rollers in very fancy RV's and 5'ers. The pool was very nice but a guy was powerwashing it every day all week with a gas powered machine (guess he was making it his retirement job) so that was out.... More

My husband and I have been coming here once or twice a year for at least 10 years. Every time we have had a wonderful experience. The staff has always been very nice, helpful and hospitable. Over the years we have been put in different spots around the campground and we have not found any area to be less enjoyable... More

We chose this place based on reviews from a tent-camping book and the proximity to the bioluminescence kayak tour which was our main motivation for coming to this area. Since moving to south Florida, we have discovered that nice tent-camping sites are rather scarce as most places here cater to RVs. This is one of the better places we've seen... More

We had high hopes for this place. When we checked in, our water front site had been given away so we took a standard one. What a joke! It was basically a dirt patch with a picnic table. The people behind us (there was 3 families in one spot) were so loud and their kids were screaming and kept running... More

I called and reserved a site for 2 nites a few weeks before we arrived March 2, 2012. The lady in charge was very pleasant and sent us to our site, #101. We had to squeeze our travel trailer into a spot between 2 snow bird campers, who had taken up much of our small site. Our view was of... More
