So during the day it's not always quiet, but the night I was there was quiet. I would recommend running the water first because it hadn't been run in a while and I had black stuff coming out of my faucet. There was also a wasp nest in the power box so I had to take care of that. Also, the fire pit was filled with about a 3 inch layer of ash that I cleaned out before I made my first fire. There's a guy's phone number on the kiosk that you can call for firewood. He's not affiliated with the park but will bring a bundle for seven dollars plus a delivery fee. There isn't a dedicated hose for black water tank flushing, so I hooked up my own (luckily brand new) hose to the potable water faucet. It would be much better and recommended to have a separate spigot for black water flush hoses. The sunset was beautiful and it seems the fishing is good although I didn't fish. The site had a picnic table, and the firepit has a grate for cooking albeit rusty. I had my grilling supplies and got some of the flakes off. The bathrooms were also big and clean. There is no camp host here FYI. Just pull in and park.

They are working on making it look better by mulching beds when in reality they need to work on the RV sites. The sites are getting worse and worse and need maintenance. Most of not all sites need to be leveled, remove palm trees to make it easier for big rigs to get into a few spaces, and several water spigots at sites leaking and making it muddy. There also appears to be quite a few full-timers living there. Host was very nice. Unfortunately, we will not be back. No longer worth the money.

The office smelled like cat pee. And last but not least the need to remove the tattered American Flag and replace it.

They go above and beyond to make your stay as comfortable as possible! We look forward to returning and seeing the progress as renovations take place for the bath house, mini golf etc....

I have a free, beautiful camp by the river for three days. Manatee visit you below the deck, the wildlife refuge is across the street, the biking is great there, and the kayaking is wonderful! I find the campground to be well managed and always clean and safe especially for older women. The angry woman's comment was due to the fact that she did not follow the posted rules, and I guess it made her angry that she was asked to follow the rules by the responsible camp host.

Though we didn't, you can actually look through all the campsite photos on their website before choosing which one you want, which is awesome. They don't sell firewood, but Mr. Hatcher said we were welcome to pick up dead branches we found, which some places don't allow, and there was plenty of wood! We do have an axe, which was very helpful. Bluff Creek Campground is the perfect inexpensive place to stay and we wish we'd stayed longer!
