    beware of resident psychopaths poisoning dogs and management's lack of concern for guest safety. I…read morewas walking my dog at about 12am and she ventured about six inches off the pavement in front of a mobile home where she pooped. Before I got a chance to clean up after her a woman lurking inside the trailer in her night gown and giving me flashbacks of the girl from the movie "The Ring" began to scream at me saying, " get your damn dog out of my yard! I will put poison in my yard!!" This of course frightened the hell out of me (a woman with disabling PTSD alone in the dark at an rv park). It was a scene straight out of a horror movie. As I tried to tell her I can't control where she relieves herself and that we were actually not on her rented property but on the shoulder of the roadway, she continued her shrill ranting. My dog began to bark at her as she came to the door in front of me accompanied by her husband. Both of them spit venom at me that surely woke the dead but were careful to do it at a safe distance as my dog was eager to come to my defense. They hurled the most obscene insults and names at me that would have made a sailor blush. the next day my dog was obsessively licking and chewing at her feet. When I examined them I found they were blistered and bleeding. soon after she was unable to walk. I cleaned them applied ointment and kept them wrapped in bandages. I repeated that process twice per day and was very angry at myself for all the extra treats I gave her in the past when I had to carry her outside to go potty 4 times per day at least. The pictures are three days afterward and her feet were more than 50% healed. I spoke to the owners who were in no way concerned and didn't seem to believe me. The male owner said, "yeah she called my wife and said you were letting your dog crap in their yard and not cleaning it up." I replied, "so that's okay for them to scare me to death and scream the most vulgar names at me in the middle of the night." He then said, "well they have a different story" that incident was the first time my dog had ever been off the roadway in front or behind their campsite. there was never one time that I didn't clean up after my dog. there were other reports of those people screaming at other guests about their dogs but no one else reported being threatened with poison nor were their pets injured. My dog was not engaged in any out of the ordinary activities that would have caused those injuries. She does the same things now that she always has in similar environments and has not been injured in that way either before or since. We relocated soon after.

    Great RV park! And very Veteran friendly. The new owners are nice and will do anything to…read moreaccommodate. We have a 34' travel trailer and had no issues maneuvering in the park. We called and let them know we were coming in late and the maintenance man greeting and helped us to our spot. Nice spacing in between spots and lots of trees for shade. Grass sites that were well maintained and semi leveled. Electric, water and sewage hookups were centrally located. Bathrooms and showers were clean. Laundry facilities have five washers and five dryers and even one big commercial washer-$1.50 to wash and quarter to dry.

    My wife and I, along with a few others, booked our campsites online. The cost was $30 per night,…read morebut there are discounts for senior citizens and those with disabilities. Our campsite had running water and electric hookups, but the space was relatively small, accommodating two decent-sized tents, a trailer, and a vehicle. We weren't sure about overflow parking, but they didn't mind when I parked my truck near an unmarked site. There was a dump station on the other side for RVs. The bathhouse was centrally located and clean, stocked with hand soap and toilet paper, although it lacked shampoo in the showers. We observed a variety of wildlife, including deer, otters, turtles, a snake, and squirrels. A raccoon, which I affectionately named "Gangster," rummaged through our belongings at night, even opening a cooler without a latch - amusing yet slightly concerning. A nice walking path leads to the boat dock, and there's a boat ramp for kayaks and canoes, but remember it's a walking path, not accessible by vehicle. The spring itself was spacious and not overly crowded, much better than Ginnie Springs, though there was a noticeable amount of algae on the surface. The store nearby offered snacks, food, and ice cream at reasonable prices, which the kids loved. We saw many dog owners, and it seemed dogs were prohibited only in or near the spring, although some were swimming near the boat ramp. Overall, it's a pleasant campsite, but there are a few drawbacks: numerous ticks and horseflies were present, and the area is very dark at night. There are no trash cans at the sites, so you'll need to bring your own container and take your trash to the dumpster. Lastly, the check-in process was slow due to limited staff.

    I am so sick of places saying they are dog friendly when they aren't. We came here specifically…read morebecause they said this park was dog friendly and we don't want to have to leave our dog behind ever. It cost us $6 to drive in and find that, while you can take your dog on the grassy "park" area, dogs are not allowed on any of the boardwalk walkways or in or even near the water. I can take my dog to much nicer parks for free. My husband and I tried taking turns sitting with the dog while the other went looking for manatees or wildlife. All we saw was dirty water crowded with people. We did not see a single animal besides a squirrel. Then, while I was waiting for my husband to do one of the longer boardwalks, my dog started yelping and jolting from side to side. I looked does to see she was being absolutely swarmed by mosquitoes. I took her back to the car immediately and she had at least 8 visible bites and was shaken. I noticed later that I had three bites on my legs as well and I had made sure to put on sunscreen and bug spray. A majority of the people I personally encountered were definitely tourists, and those that seemed like locals were mostly sitting on their phones while their kids were swimming. We did not have a good experience here and I wouldn't recommend it unless you fall into one of those two groups and think you'll enjoy it. There are so many other great ways to spend a day in this area.
