We are car campers with a tent that attaches to our SUV. Are there sites that would work for us?

Beautiful small COE park with 9 rv sites, and 3 tent site. Sites 1,2,and 3 are on the water. Very clean and well maintained. Also 6 boat slips available. Right on the canal so you can watch the boats go thru the locks.

Well no need to add much beyond what all the other reviews said. This was our first stay at a USACOE campground and we've certainly been spoiled. What a beautiful place. RV pads are impressively level and each space's front yard is well-manicured and friendly. Staying right in front of the river was wonderful, the view is unbeatable, and the manatees in the water were just fantastic. Mosquitoes definitely came out once the sun started to set but they're no match for our front door 😉. Would love to stay here again — hopefully for much longer!
The loop at the end of the campground and maneuvering was absolutely no issue for our 30' DP (toad off) but would likely be challenging for folks in a 45'.
Cell coverage was good enough for typical internet browsing. If you have a cell booster you'll have no issues.

I dry camped in a tent in spot T3 under a tree right next to the canal. If there were no mosquitoes, I would’ve given it a 10. It is absolutely beautiful. Over breakfast I watched flying fish. It was magical, except for those darn mosquitoes eating me alive. I tried a citronella candle and every spray I bought. It’s like they ate it like candy. I would stay here again, but wear a mosquito net. It was $20/night with no amenities. It felt quite safe. Two bars on Verizon.

Great concrete pads with space in between. 50 amp + water & dump station. There are also boat slips available with water and electric. The lock viewing area and little island across from the lock were all gated off due to Covid apparently which was a disappointment. The visitor center was also closed. Even the loaner life jackets were removed because the risk of Covid was apparently greater than the risk of drowning.
The location is still wonderful though and the campground is really quite beautiful. We had hoped to go to Manatee Lagoon (where a power plant's warm outflow attracts many manatees) while we were here, but it was closed due to Covid. That led to a very fun adventure that we hadn't known about that isn't too far away from the CG - Peanut Island. There is a little ferry that takes you to a man-made island with snorkeling reefs and lagoon, a walking trail, tent campsites, etc. It is VERY dog friendly, including the ferry. We even saw 2 manatees while we were there.

Well maintained small campground (9 RV sites; some on the water) with water and electric. Dump station on site. Clean restrooms with warm shower. Well maintained grounds. It’s right next to the St. Lucie locks; interesting to watch the boats go through. Loved it!

Small (9 RV sites), quiet, well maintained. Electric and water at each RV site. Covered table, grill and fire ring at each site, both RV and tent. Hot water showers. Dump station. Three of the sites (1, 2 and 3) are right on the edge of the canal. Less than 30 minutes to ocean beaches. It's only a couple of miles from I95.

This might be the most scenic and clean campground we’ve stayed right on the water, site 2! Sort of next to big sailboats and cruisers on the water.
My husband fished right off our site and great fishing!
Ortona South was full and reservation agent redirected us to St. Lucie and we hit the jackpot!

This was our second trip to St. Lucie South. This is definitely a small park without a ton of frills. The site pads are awesome and the water the views are very nice. We arrived after dark and was able to coordinate with the campground on how to access the gate. I will definitely be back to this campground in the future and would recommend it to anyone that is looking for a nice quiet place to chill for a few days.
