Very rustic Campground, 50 amp service, cell service poor,no wifi sewer dump station near exit. Campground was a spot just for overnight.
@JohnG7676070 · Camped on Apr 18, 2025 at Campsite #8
Great sites with full 50amp electricity. We filled water at the campground at arrival and dumped as we left. The location was great for visiting the park. Really little to no cell service. Quiet and the night skies were fantastic.

The best ever

Very nice campground. Good location to visit Big Cypress and Everglades.
@SkylarHB905EB9 · Camped on Apr 4, 2025 at Campsite #3
Great campsite. Bathrooms were nice. They have flush toilets and running water, but no showers. I was able to get 1 bar of service sometimes, but it was not at all consistent. Stayed for 4 nights and had no issues at all. If you dont mind being disconnected from phone service for a little while, this was an excellent campsite.

Nice quiet location until we had zero camp hosts then things get a little crazy with some of our neighbors.

Nice quiet stay. Campground host was very friendly
@WilliamW688008 · Camped on Mar 24, 2025 at Campsite #17
Very clean
@MichaelS179730 · Camped on Mar 24, 2025 at Campsite #20
We found our site easily but the check in process wasnt clear. We also didnt realize the campsites have no water hook up so we had to fill our holding tank a couple of times while there. Also the bathrooms were nicely cleaned but there are no showers there. The hosts were friendly and helpful and we had really nice fellow campers.

Quiet campground, the rangers were awesome and very informative, no showers which was not a problem at all, a lot of attractions near by, oasis visitor center, 24 mile loop was a must see, lots of great fishing, beware of the resident alligator
@EdwardT1368517 · Camped on Mar 19, 2025 at Campsite #26
Well maintained campground. Facilities include large sites, electricity, rest rooms with flush toilets, dump station and potable water. Midway CG centrally located within Big Cypress National Preserve.
@DaniellePBE8D2 · Camped on Mar 18, 2025 at Campsite #2
We have camped here 3 times. Very clean. No showers or dishwashing so prepare for that. It is centrally located to many activities. The stars are great at night. Very few bugs during the spring; no mosquitoes during the dry season.
@LeeG4357578 · Camped on Mar 17, 2025 at Campsite #3
Wonderful surprise!This was a last-ditch option trying to make progress toward the Keys. I figured itd be a nothing-night stay. Instead, it was a beautiful drive to it at sunset; the campgrounds were well-attended yet silent; the night sky was dark and I saw a shooting star. Up early the next day: great head start before South Florida traffic. Great campsite.

The Midway campground was midway between our activities. The host at the campground gave us recommendations. She told us to make a reservation to do the tram ride at Shark Valley. It was a two hour ride and it was informative and we saw many alligators and birds and went up in the observation deck. She told us to drive Loop Road and that was a two hour ride but very nice. Then, we went the opposite direction to explore Everglades City. We visited the SmallWood Store in Chokoloskee which is well worth the visit. And, we were able to use the Monument Campgrounds showers which is just 7 miles away.

Nice campground but no showers. The facilities are there to add showers. Should be done.
@TomT7595707 · Camped on Mar 10, 2025 at Campsite #26
Nice little campground. Staff was friendly and informative. Near several attractions.
@RonaldM7208164 · Camped on Mar 9, 2025 at Campsite #11
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Midway Campground. Nice and quiet with clean bathrooms. However, I do wish they had a bathhouse on site, otherwise it's lovely.Nice and close to Everglades National Park - Shark Valley Visitor Center (must see) and the Big Cypress National Preserve - Oasis Visitor Center & Boardwalk (lot's of wildlife to see).We well definitely be back!
@williams984835 · Camped on Mar 8, 2025 at Campsite #2
Immaculate grounds. Sites are level concrete with a picnic table. Electricity pedestal was in good shape (50A service). Potable water and sanitary dump station very conveniently located near the entrance. Centrally located dumpster for trash disposal. No cell service or OTA TV, but that's what we came for. Excellent Starlink service provided connectivity for communications and Internet. Remote site that offers up outstanding dark sky night astrophotography. At a minimum, you need to drive The Loop Road for seeing some of the abundant Everglades animal life. The history of the area is also very interesting. We were just passing through and stopped for 2 nights, but will make this a destination stop in the future!
@RabdallSB7E522 · Camped on Mar 5, 2025 at Campsite #15
We only stayed one night as we were transiting through but we found the grounds to be well kept and very suitable. They could stand to trim the trees back away from some of the sites.
@GinetteLCC4F78 · Camped on Mar 3, 2025 at Campsite #2
Trs bien plac pour visiter les Everglades.
@JerryAF01B353E · Camped on Mar 2, 2025 at Campsite #14
Nice clean campground, enjoyed our stay
@HaroldB5534382 · Camped on Mar 2, 2025 at Campsite #25
Barking dogs were a problem. I would like to see a camping section for campers without pets. The sites are close and a barking dog right beside you is a nuisance.
@MiltonB463B0DC · Camped on Feb 28, 2025 at Campsite #7
Midway campground is a hidden gem midway between Miami and Naples! Especially with electrical hook ups!! It is a quiet little oasis along 41 with a picturesque small lake and wonderful campground hosts in season. We make it a point to break up our trip to and from the Florida Keys here every year. We were lucky enough to be there recently on an evening where there was a Ranger talk!!
@DavidM1864120 · Camped on Feb 27, 2025 at Campsite #4
Very nice place to stay in the heart of the Everglades. The night sky is beautiful.

Thanks to all our Supporting Members

@BranJen - Santa Clara, CA

I wanted to thank you for this site and especially for the notifications feature. Thanks to your site and my subscription I was able to book a campsite I've been annoyingly trying to book for 5 years unsuccessfully. So thank you.

@Wondering - Oregon

Wow! Woke up this morning to a notification that a favorite had opened at Paulina, and when I went to check, it was there. This membership just paid for itself in the first 24 hours I owned it. Couldn't take the site it conflicted with a trip already set, but it truly was there. Thanks Tons.

@CarlaLThompson - Colorado

I just love this site and I tell everyone about it! It's so competitive to secure desired campsites and the alerts really help track when sites free up. The best part of this story is our alert notified a cancellation the next day!!!!!! Just incredible!!!
