My stay at the RV campground was incredibly enjoyable and stress-free. The manager kept a close eye on things, making me feel secure during my three-month stay. I loved the close proximity to Key Largo and other keys for day trips. However, the lack of a pool might be a downside for some families looking for water activities on-site.

I had a wonderful time at this hotel! The arrival process was smooth with my paperwork ready at the door, which made things easy after a long trip. I loved having beach access and plenty of space for my pop-up setup. The only downside was some issues with kitchen supplies in the cottage we stayed in, but overall, it was a pleasant experience thanks to the friendly atmosphere. I definitely felt safe and appreciated the late check-out on our departure.

I had a mixed experience at this resort. The cottage we stayed in was clean and offered stunning water views, which was a major plus. However, the kitchen was poorly equipped, lacking basic items, which was disappointing. Service was lacking during check-in, and the location didn't have many options within walking distance, necessitating a car. Overall, the place has great potential but needs improvements in kitchen supplies and check-in procedures.

I had a decent stay at the resort, enjoying the cleanliness and charm of the cottage. The views were breathtaking, and it had a laid-back vibe. However, there were several essentials missing from the kitchen, which made meal prep a hassle. Additionally, the check-in process was frustrating, especially arriving late after a long drive. Overall, a mixed experience with beautiful surroundings but some areas that need improvement.

I found this resort to be a real hidden gem right on the ocean! The grounds were absolutely beautiful, with a lovely dock, pavilion, and even a fire pit area to enjoy at night. My room was spotless and felt almost brand new. However, I did wish for a bit more time to relax there, as it was just an overnight stay on my way to Key West. Overall, it was definitely a place I'd visit again if I had the chance.
