I booked on the phone at 10pm! I waited only 2 minutes to be connected to a specialist. Great job! The huge pluses are the campground has restrooms, low cost for those traveling by RV or tent. There is electricity and the grounds are very clean and well maintained. There was plenty to do at Big Cypress the next day, so would have stayed another night, but the route took us to another campground.

The hosts, Paul and Sarah, were lovely and gave us great recommendations about our stay. We were tent camping and would stay there again in a heartbeat.

Simple campground, but with the sweetest most dedicated volunteers going out of their way to help you enjoy your stay.

We loved spending a few nights at Midway Campground. The hosts, Darrell and Peg were AWESOME! Note - there are no showers at this campground, so prepare accordingly. The site was perfect, flat, and just right for our tent. There is some road traffic, if you are near the front, but it wasn't bothersome for our family. Bring earplugs if you are a light sleeper and camp in a tent near the front.

The facilities are clean and well maintained. We liked not having cell service/Wifi, but that might not be the case for everyone. This location was perfect for us to be near our airboat tour location (Captain Jack's in Everglades City). The Big Cypress ranger station is just a few miles down the road. We had a great view of the night sky because of minimal lights on the ground. It was a perfect weekend getaway for us!

We highly recommend it, based on our experience. We also saw dozens of gators sunning themselves on the other side of the road/water (safe distance away) from the campground. There are several locations nearby to walk the boardwalks and view even more wildlife. Our kiddos loved it!

The park is VERY clean and well maintained. I have tent camped a few times now at Midway and they have nice shelter units. They have mowed just before my arrival each time so the grass is always nice, but wish they didn't blow the grass up onto the shelter units. You will need a broom to clean your area if tent camping. The tent area is also not in an ideal spot as they are right next to the RV dump station so all night you have non-registered RVs passing through getting water and dumping causing smells and noise. They need to create a better tent area towards the rear of the park, not across from the RV dump station and all the driving/foot traffic.

Men's toilet was clogged throughout the night. There was no one on site for assistance.
