I can't understand the 2017 review. This is a Florida State Park and is excellent. We are in site 53 which is in the Palmetto loop. Full hookups!! Each site is gravel, level, fire ring, table and grill. This is a wonderful park and a Florida gem. Took the Myakka Lake boat tour, which is so so for $20. There is a swinging walkway "bridge" and observation tower. That is very enjoyable and within the park. Shopping is about 10 miles on SR 72. We paid $13 a night with Florida discount.

Management was no where to be found, finally showed up in bathing suit drinking a beer. Was told this is the off season so they aren't around often. In all the years we have... Read More

In all the years we have camped we have never met such unprofessional park owners or experienced such a trashy park. We left after trying to back our trailer in, did not stay at all and three days later have still not rec'd any communication from owner on why we were charged more than was quoted.
