Several people say they couldn't find the campsite. There wasn't a sign pointing to it from the main trail last time we were there. It is really there however!

The best camping area in Florida. I will come again it's beautiful I I went bicycle camping the best.
Found this place on the map we like to go for hikes on Sundays. Walked the road for about 2 miles to were it says campsite and there is nothing there’s no ponds no islands. It was still a nice walk but there’s not much going on. If you’re looking for a flat wide road walk it’s a good place for that
Very nice campfire area. My kid enjoyed the freedom of starting a fire.🤭
This was a very pleasant walking trail. Lots of birds and crickets and trees. However, as another person stated there is no campground or anything here, just woods.
