Lots of snowbirds here! Very full but very nice! I could imagine it could be hard to get into some spots but we didn’t have much trouble! Very professional park

We absolutely loved this park! The staff were amazing, the other guests were all friendly, the park is extremely well-maintained, the wildlife are fun to watch, and the location was decent for shopping. We stayed in space 12666 which backs up to Memorial Hwy. Street noise is definitely an issue but it gets quiet at night. Our space was a Bayou Grande site which was probably one of the nicest sites we've had the pleasure of staying in. The concrete pad was tremendous and well landscaped. The rest of the park was nice and most spaces had trees with great shade but we really loved the larger site. We would highly recommend staying here, if given the chance. We camped at Bay Bayou RV Resort in a Fifth Wheel.

We have a Pepwave Max Transit Duo for AT&T and Verizon service. AT&T had download speeds of 8.13 and upload speeds of 6.62. Verizon was 6.41 for downloads and 6.2 for uploads. Our Mifi with T-Mobile had download speeds of 33.3 and uploads of 56.28! Working via Zoom was fantastic at this park.

Very nice park located in the heart of the city. We stayed in the newer section and all the sites are concrete and level with new grass landscaping. There was some noise from the very busy street adjacent to the park, but nothing to bad. Everything is meticulously maintained! Lots of full-timers throughout the park as I would expect for Florida in April but sites were tidy. My only complaint would be the quality of the laundry facilities located throughout the park. Although they have multiple laundry facilities, they are all located in open air buildings which allowed all sorts of bugs and lizards in...it would be nice to be in closed air conditioned laundry room, not to mention much cleaner.

When I booked our site, they only had November available. Our time is coming to a close and I so don't want to leave. It's hard to describe what is special about a park like this, it just is. The staff is fantastic, like other reviews have said they are some of the best in the business. The park is a mixture of permanent, seasonal, and transients and everyone is friendly. The location is great, close to so many things in the Tampa area, yet fairly quiet. The sites are nearby to each other but room to feel at home and not closed in. I would come back in a heartbeat. This is a popular park so plan early.

Stay was with a monthly rate and a "Florida residents pay half price" special. The staff is great and they keep the place in great shape. Laundry is reasonable and everything was clean and working. They were very upfront on the low quality of their Internet service, you can get by checking mail at times, but often it is unusable. While I "would camp here again" based on overall quality, it won't be my first choice due to the wireless service being so bad. I don't expect high-speed streaming, but there are many options (I don't mind paying for) to improve that aspect of things.

We were unfortunately unable to stay due to the age restriction. The staff was nice when I called to book, but due to this restriction we were unable to stay.

This is a nice RV park. There are just a handful of older mobile homes and dilapidated trailers, but mostly newer RVs. Sites are large, shaded, gravel with a patio slab. There are some nicer, fully-paved and landscaped waterfront sites on the west side of the park (Bayou Grande area) which offer little shade but a great view of the bayou. Pet friendly. Grounds are well kept. WiFi is very weak - a booster is helpful. Over the course of our stay there was a change in administrative staff and there is a noticeably warmer, more helpful atmosphere in the office than when we arrived. Secure mail room and an assortment of necessities, ice and propane for sale during office hours. Located on a lovely bayou with a deck, fishing pier and put-in for kayaks. The only negative we had was the very dirty maintenance golf cart parked next to our site and our proximity to a sometimes-smelly wastewater station. Sites toward the back of the park are adjacent to a loud, busy highway. Sites in the middle and east are in a really lovely oak hammock and are more quiet. It was a great place to stay for the summer - not at all crowded and very close to restaurants, Target, Publix, WalMart, Aldi and Gander Outdoors. We'd stay here again in the off season. Leaving because it's boondocking season in FL! Price reflects the posted winter daily rate. We stayed for four months and averaged about $550/month plus electric for a deluxe site.
