PROS: AMAZING BATHROOMS AND SHOWERS! PET FRIENDLY! Ice! Great prices for camping, amazing location…read moreand views! Directly on the water, but shady spots. Wonderful staff. Fire pits at every site, firewood for sale, full hookups for RVs and dry camping for tent and boondockers. Adorable tiki bar on site for casual light snacks and drinks. Dock and bank fishing on site. Nearby shops and amenities within easy driving distance. Cabins and even a SAILBOAT for rent on AirBNB! 20 minutes from Crystal River and it's attractions and restaurants. 5 minute drive to the Gulf. Kayak Rentals! Local parks and walks! I adore this place and will definitely be back. CONS: Okay, guys, this not the campground's fault, but you need to be warned. The Noseeums/sand flies/flying midges in Yankeetown/Ingles are legendary. If you are tent or otherwise dry camping with limited indoor space, you need to bring screen netting and a fan. Bug spray does not work. Candles do not work. Calgon Morning Glory Body Mist does not work. Nothing works except very fine bug netting and fans. Pack long sleeves, a battery powered fan, fine bug netting. Tenters and boondockers, bring an enclosed gazeebo to enjoy the evening breeze but escape the bug plauge. I got devoured by noseums and still had a fantastic time. One million stars!

We left out of Loughman Lake Lodge which was a beautiful setting & I enjoyed sitting out on the deck of the restaurant eating while we were waiting to go & enjoyed a cold beverage after we got back... It was nice to go places that weren't used by bigger & more commercial operations, felt like it had a more personal touch, We saw gators & a few really big ones, lots of different types of birds my only regret is that we did the 1 hr tour & that went by quick so I would recommend doing at least the 2 hr if not longer if you want to really experience the waters less traveled... They have a campground onsite as well & I'm hoping to bring my camper next time I"m down this way & will be taking another ride to explore some different areas..

Captain Ron also helped by pointing out where the fish might be with the sue of his fish finder. We also spent the last hour of our afternoon sight seeing. The girls where excited seeing two alligators, which them living in Pennsylvania it would be the first time the saw gators outside a zoo setting. Captain Ron enabled us to have a wonderful relaxing afternoon with our granddaughters. We would highly recommend Coastal Escapades.

Crystal River was always one of my favorite places to play in the water. So during our "drive by" selected to do Captain Wayne's 2 hour manatee tour. I knew it was a shot in the dark because,well June, they are rare in the rivers this time of year. My BFF was hoping to see dolphins (also rare in the rivers I know). When we boarded first thing he asked was what we wanted out of this journey, we told him our hopes. We set sail in his wonderful pontoon boat completely shaded in the hot Florida sun. He told stories and provided information and answered all our silly questions with such importance we felt valued for our interests and not silly for asking such question. We happened upon ( I'm sure he did the searching but we never saw) our first pod of manatees coming up and diving so wonderful we were thrilled. After a little bit we came up on yet another pod of manatees. The respect and distance he gave them while insuring our amazing views was the marks of a caring and mindful captain. We were heading back in and time was short. But then Captain Wayne's spotted some dolphins getting ready to feed. He explained the process and what we could expect and it was AMAZING! Watching them circle the school of fish and watching them catch in midair was just a once in a lifetime experience. We stayed and watched the whole thing, running our time over by almost 30 minutes. He never rushed or even noticed that I could see. I have seen many places touristy (cattle feeds I call them) rushing in and never connecting. I can promise you this is not that. If you have time and are in Crystal River - Take this cruise with Captain Wayne, I believe you will not regret this decision! Captain Wayne's, if you're reading this - thank you thank you thank you for everything, you made it so special. A day we will not forget.
