    Golf cart riding

    We stayed there a few years ago and it was a great place to stay. So many kids to play with. There was a pool that we used. The kids were able to fish. We saw a manatee while in the marina! Staff was very helpful. We rented a golf cart to travel down to Mallory square.

    From the point of placing a reservation to actually arriving and setting up, the staff was absolutely superb! Very accommodating, very professional and customer service oriented. The park itself is very well capped up, the pool is being restored and I'm sure it's going to be beautiful. There Registration and store area is very clean and very well supplied with shirts and hats and the most important thing ice cream. It is centrally located for pizza or even hog fish and Grill all very close.

    Our camp spot

    During the summer of 2022, our family enjoyed a month, long road trip from Los Angeles to Key West and back again. It was a dream trip for all of us, with many awesome stops along the way, seeing places we have never been, and may never visit together again. My wife spent six months planning every detail that she could, including our stay at Boyd's key west campground. It's probably worthy of mentioned that we towed a 25 foot camper trailer all the way across country. As we got closer to Boyd's, I did start to notice that the streets of Stock Island (that's the key just above Key West, Mildred) got a little, more, narrow, and, notably, filled with chickens and iguanas! When we pulled into the campground, however, there was plenty of space to negotiate the turns and situate ourselves. The campsite that we had selected months in advance was one of the waterfront spots. A simple, crushed gravel pad with full hook ups, some hedges for privacy, and a requisite coconut palm tree was a nice setting to park our trailer for our four day stay. The campground featured clean bathrooms and showers, a recreation center for the kids, a swimming, pool, laundry facilities, a launch ramp, a swim beach... Which came in handy to watch our kayaks into the bay... And barbecue pits at some of the sites. The staff was absolutely phenomenal and kind, helping us with reservations for parasailing, and giving us flawless directions around town so we could make our reservations for things like our trip to the dry Tortugas on time. Keeping it real: the only downside to our stay -- something that was out of control of Boyd's, and more of a problem for the greater Key West community-- the Sargasso weed that washes up on the shore in the warm waters of the keys, decomposes and stinks like rotten eggs. If you've ever smelled low tide in a back bay or harbor area, it's kind of like that... Add in the warm tradewinds, and a little humidity, and it hits you pretty good when you first get there. During our stay, we kind of got used to it, but it was definitely a thing. For what it's worth, it was the same at most of the beaches we visited, but perhaps more pronounced in the relatively still waters behind Stock Island, near the mangroves. Speaking of the mangroves, we took two tandem kayaks on our trip, and did some paddling in the waters off of Boyd's. In some places, the water was only a few inches deep and bath tub warm. We explored the mangroves and saw numerous fish, birds, and invertebrates. Our family absolutely looks forward to some future trip to stay at Boyd's again... I can't imagine when that might be, so for the time being, our few days there, serve as one of our most awesome family memories vacationing together.

    Staff is easy going friendly and happy Grounds are immaculate Lots of waterfront gorgeous sites Safe here Pool great You don't feel on top of one another baking in the sun Clean bathrooms and showers Yes chickens all over and roosters because they are protected here in Key West Yes an airport down the road so a plane flies around occasionally Great price for location

    Beautiful Campground! Pristine landscaping and water front. Staff is friendly and the giftshop/store is super cool. There is a Cuban food truck on the premises that has coffee & bagels in the morning. The bathrooms are clean and large. We saw a pod of Manatees next to the dock. A little pricey but worth it

    Chickens!

    Second time here at Boyd's and will not be the last! The service is over the top wonderful, they greet you, they check you in, they take you to your site and help you park! Can't wait to come back again and again and again!

    This was a really fun place to stay. Bathrooms were clean. Staff was very friendly and helpful! We asked to move camp sites because I had problems walking to the bathrooms. They were very accommodating. There is a beach on the backside of the property. There were lots of amenities and things to do on property. The pool was clean and well kept. There is a small general store on property. Prices weren't to bad. There are lots of chickens and roosters running around the place. It was interesting to see. I would recommend this campsite to anyone looking for someplace close to the end of the keys!

    We had a great time staying at Boyd's campground during the holidays. We had a primitive tent campsite that fit my adventure van perfectly! We were lucky to have the boat dock right behind our site which was east to launch the paddleboards. The campsites are pretty tight, but it fits the key west vibe. Everyone was very respectable and having a great time! The location of the campground is great - only 15 minutes to Duval and less than .5 mile to Hogfish Restaurant. The staff was outstanding! So helpful and constantly driving around to answer questions and provide assistance. The bathrooms were thoroughly cleaned daily and there were plenty for all the campers. Boyd's also had a raffle with Fury for a snorkel and glass bottom boat trip! We actually one of the glass bottom boat tours. I highly recommend this site and will be returning soon!

    Look, you don't visit Key West (especially on a budget) for quiet seclusion. And this is no different. It's not "camping," it is a "place to sleep in a tent" (or the mobile accomodations of your choice). That said, it was a GREAT place to sleep in a tent. The staff was lovely. Highlights: check in woman advised me of a great alternative to Uber. Another staff member gave me a ride in his golf cart when I appeared lost. Very sweet people. Nice common areas to unwind, under cover. Bathrooms were wonderfully clean. I believe this to be a combination of good cleaning (obviously), and other visitors having a general respect for the property. We sauntered back to our tent site both nights around 11pm and it was drop-dead quiet. Certainly there is noise from the CITY around it, but we observed no noisy visitors or vehicle generators. Anyone complaining about noise is not considering that this campground is not situated in a remote area, but firmly located in the middle of a lot of action. It is what it is. If you seek absolute quiet, maybe don't sleep outdoors in the middle of a major tourist city with an adjacent naval air base. But yeah, we were super happy with Boyds.

    Very nice staff. Made us feel right at home. Pool was closed but that didn't impact us. In good proximity to food and nice showers.

We…read morehad a waterfront site booked, and based on the front desk's recommendation, switched to a different waterfront site that was easier to back into (we have a 40' motorhome), which was appreciated. We were escorted to our site, and literally were parked steps from the water. We enjoyed hanging out in the water immediately, and also loved all the wildlife present everywhere on the campground, including an iguana who liked to bask in the tree right next to our RV, numerous pelicans and herons (or egrets? I never know the difference), schools of thousands of little fish, and more. I loved swimming in the area off the swimming dock. The water was cool and refreshing in the heat. Every day, I marveled at the beauty of this place. The clouds and sky looked like cotton candy at dusk. Sunsets were magical. Bahia Honda State Park is only 5 minutes away. I almost didn't go, because this campground was so nice, but fortunately, we went, and of course, that was breathtaking as well. We have starlink so I didn't have internet issues, and we didn't use the marina services, so can't speak to that.

    I'm starting to have my doubts. I grew up vacationing here with my family back in the 80's. my wife…read morestarted coming here about 5 years ago. We have a 2 week stay here scheduled for August when lobster season opens. I recently found out through a voicemail that the marina is closed for upgrades. I've been trying to call to find out if they will have boat parking. I've called the marina once and the front office twice and left voicemail messages. I've not received a call back. my other issue is that no-one told me the marina would be under construction before I paid over 4,000 dollars for my spot.

    Jolly Roger is one of my favorite campground!!! The staff goes out of their way to keep the park…read morenice and clean. We will never stay anywhere else in the keys again.

    If I could give zero stars, I would. This rating is not because of the facilities or the campground…read moreitself--it is entirely because of the way this situation was handled and the way my family was treated by the management. After nearly four years of visiting Jolly Roger RV Resort in Marathon and spending much of our summers there, I never imagined our experience would end this way. We truly loved this place. Our daughters grew up coming here, made great friends, and created wonderful memories. That is exactly why the way we were treated by the management was so disappointing. After the incident, our conversation regarding our permanent removal from the resort was handled directly by the park manager, Angie. Unfortunately, that conversation left us feeling unheard, unfairly judged, and with the impression that no consideration was given to our years as respectful, responsible guests. During the Fourth of July weekend, when the campground was extremely busy, several children were playing at the dock. As they had done during previous summers, some of them were jumping from the boat ramp into the water. I was the only parent present supervising the children who were with me. An employee came by and asked for the lot numbers of the families there. I was the only person who honestly and responsibly provided our lot number. The following day, I received a phone call from the park manager informing us that we had been permanently banned from the RV park. What hurt the most was not the decision itself, but the way the entire situation was handled. We were never given a meaningful opportunity to explain our side of the story, nor did anyone consider that, throughout all the years we had been coming here, we had never had a single complaint or incident. In addition, we were held responsible for situations that did not involve our family and that, from our perspective, were simply not true. It felt as though decisions were made based on assumptions rather than a fair evaluation of the facts or our long history as respectful guests. I was also surprised that there were no clear signs stating that children were not allowed to jump from that area. The posted signs referred to swimming at your own risk and under adult supervision, so we had no reason to believe that this behavior would result in a permanent ban. The saddest part was feeling as though we were treated like troublemakers or criminals when we have always been a respectful, responsible family that has taken care of both our children and the property. I can only speak about our own experience, but it ended with tremendous disappointment. More than the decision itself, it was the lack of empathy, respect, and willingness to listen that caused us to completely lose confidence in the management. We left heartbroken, especially for our daughters, who loved this place and were looking forward to spending the rest of the summer there. It is unfortunate that so many years of wonderful memories ended because of a situation that, in our opinion, could have been handled with communication, fairness, and basic respect. I sincerely hope the management reflects on how they treat families and handle situations like this. A great RV park is defined not only by its facilities, but also by the fairness, professionalism, and humanity with which it treats its guests.
