Perfect if you want to get away from the city and people! Quiet, peaceful and tranquil. You get a plot of land with a fire pit, grill, food holder (aka metal box), and a good size picnic table.

2nd time here. It's a hidden gem . Not many campers also. One other group last time. Clean camp sites. And porta pottys are kept up to date.
Our family has enjoyed River Road Campground for many years, and this past weekend we reserved all eight campsites so our family from different locations could spend time together. Unfortunately, this visit raised serious safety and security concerns. When we arrived, there was a homeless individual living directly in our assigned campsite. We contacted the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC), and they did respond and remove him from our site.

After she gets back you'll hear lots of sounds.. none of them relaxing. She will be pacing around the campground screaming on the phone, the other two at the site will be listening to "music" at a louder than necessary volume, the dogs will be barking and she will randomly decide to holler at them, at some point the dog will get loose and she or t
Had a great time at this campground. I was a little skeptical based on the reviews previously, but we didn’t seem to have any issues with the squatters (if they were still there). We loved our chosen spot and luckily didn’t have anybody next to us, so it was perfect. We forgot to check out the lake so we’ll have to do that next time. We will definitely be back!
