Detailed Reviews
The resort is beautiful with lovely amenities including a nice pool, pickle ball and shuffleboard courts, an 18 hole mini-golf and a hot tub. I think there is a problem with their sewer system because substantial areas of the campground had a really awful smell. We were visiting some friends who were staying at the resort for the winter.
They suggested that we rent an on-site cabin. BIG MISTAKE! 1. The cabin had twin bunk beds, not exactly a romantic setting. It also had a twin fold out couch. 2. The cabin was TINY! 3. We had to bring our own sheets, towels and bedding. 4. Most importantly, this gross little cabin cost $150 per night!! We also had to clean it and dump all trash or pay an additional $25 cleaning fee.
Less than 5 miles away, we could have stayed in a very nice hotel for less money. We would not have to provide our own bedding or do any cleaning.
The resort is very nice, but the cabins are a ripoff.

We have been welcome with a wine tasting night and a great pot lock plus hamburgers and Brats for only $2.00 each. The atmosphere was wonderful! Every body that was there were people that likes the place that much that they come back every year since many years.
Thank you!

We frequent this campground often. It’s clean, quiet and has great amenities. It is very well taken care of but the staff has become slightly less enthusiastic recently with the front office remaining closed due to Covid. The RV site price has also increased which is disappointing. The rest of the property is open to enjoy and it’s a welcomed home away from home.

Overall the place is fine. Some guests abide by the rules and some don't. At least in this park. The site checker needs to get off the golf cart and remind guests to keep their sites clean. There was dog poop on some sites. This checker needs to be more accommodating with the guests in case of emergencies.

I love the resort and the activities . Everyone can find something to do. Pickleball, table tennis, aqua fitness, yoga,cards, wine tasting. ..... Some sites could use less roots and more grass, but it's clean, quiet and very friendly. Staff is excellent, grounds well cared for.

if you stay here I strongly recommend having your fresh tank full, as they will shut off the water without even a five minute notice for the day. I wouldn't have anything delivered to the facility b/c they are not the nicest staff. and be sure to have only exact change when loading the laundry card, as the staff is incapable of making change.

Our overall experience was great! We realize businesses in general lack help these days and this was no exception. The lodge was nice, clean and suitable. We stayed 8 nights and had to buy tp and trash bags after the 1st 2 were used. The big laundry was very nice but we had to download an app to use it. The heated pool was a favorite until the pump malfunctioned and it wasn't heated, but we still used it. We played lots of minigolf, pickleball and volleyball. We enjoyed meeting new people and making new friends.

The RV site we were in was very tight only a couple of feet between rv's lucky for us no one park along side of us. the pickle ball, shuffle board courts looked in great condition. Park is located in the middle of agricultural area nursery's everywhere . Walmart is a 7 mile drive cell service was great T-mobile and verizon. The only issue I have is the laundry cards which you pay a five dollar deposit then add funds . when we turned them in expecting to get the deposit that we paid cash for, they said it would be credited to our account ?? what account they don't speak and understand english well and they could not explain what account. So right now we feel like we were ripped off for $10.00

Great location in terms of proximity to Everglades National Park and plenty of restaurants, supermarkets, etc., in the area. The laundry facility is not nearly as expensive as other parks we've visited. The property, including the RV sites (where we stayed)is very well maintained, and it's obvious from the moment you arrive. We'll be back.
