Great campground. Level paved sites. Beautiful water views. Watched boats go through the lock. Highly recommend.

Love this place. On the water. Watch boats go through the lock. Fish from the walkway. Saw several snook being caught.

this is a great campground across Florida on the waterway between Ft. Myers and Stuart. It has great views - much better than private RV parks

Beautiful park. Clean and well kept. Reasonably priced. Will definitely stay there again.

This is an excellent RV site, Ive visited many times. The only reason, and its a big one, that I didnt give an excellent rating is because of the new speed bumps installed. This is complete overkill. The speed bumps are staggered across the road requiring almost a complete stop and many of them and they are very difficult to cross in an RV causing the vehicle to rock severely back and forth.

Very very nice
@MariaG6415756 · Camped on Apr 5, 2026 at Campsite #25
2nd time camping there and we love it. The employees who work there are very nice and helpful. We are looking forward to another stay there soon.
@VeronicaH04884 · Camped on Apr 2, 2026 at Campsite #12
Clean. Comfortable. Quiet.

This campground is excellent. My only complaint is the attitude of the male attendant during our stay. He was very unfriendly and it felt like we were bothering him.
@DanielleC14054 · Camped on Apr 1, 2026 at Campsite #5
Camp host takes very good care of property. Always cleaning and checking grounds. Also friendly.
@NormaB857438FF · Camped on Apr 1, 2026 at Campsite #4
We very much like this campground. However, very concerning at this visit was the new offset speed bumps approaching the entrance. They cause torquing of our 36 foot Class A RV even when driving over at a crawl, potentially resulting in a wide range of damage. I understand having to slow down traffic, but i highly recommend redoing the speed bumps eliminating the offset.

We stay every winter and live this little park. Well maintained and love walking the little island park.
@Stephanie22978 · Camped on Mar 31, 2026 at Campsite #13
Such a beautiful & peaceful campground directly on the canal. The facilities are clean and beautifully maintained. The volunteer at the gate was friendly and helpful. This is a campground that we always look forward to coming back to.
@lauram1165586 · Camped on Mar 29, 2026 at Campsite #12
Great campground, helpful hosts
@CharlesS661433 · Camped on Mar 28, 2026 at Campsite #30
Hate the miserable speed bumps on the entrance road.How about banning the speeders from entering. Why should the many be punished because of the few.
@LynnK6100232 · Camped on Mar 27, 2026 at Campsite #5
Beautiful park some low lying trim limbs. Bathrooms are clean.
@JanetS5249327 · Camped on Mar 25, 2026 at Campsite #4
The campground was beautiful as usual!
@RoyW6940414 · Camped on Mar 24, 2026 at Campsite #25
Place was beautiful it doesn't get any better. The road coming in has speed bumps like no where else, they jar the camper so bad doors open because there off set and are redundant ever crawling across them. They are so bad I dont know if we will go back there!
@SusanH8664991 · Camped on Mar 22, 2026 at Campsite #6
This was our second stay at W.P. Franklin N. Such a beautiful campground. The hosts are helpful and friendly. The sites are level and have beautiful views of the water. Restrooms and showers were clean and well kept. We enjoyed the tour of the Ford and Edison Estates and also the Babcock Eco tour in Fort Myers. We hope to be back!
@FrankM717DFC6B · Camped on Mar 19, 2026 at Campsite #19
Very clean facilities and really beautiful sunsets. We LOVED Edison Ford winter estate tour in Fort Meyers
@TimothyC887304 · Camped on Mar 18, 2026 at Campsite #2
Beautiful area, must make reservations far in advance during high season!
@DonaldT1196485 · Camped on Mar 12, 2026 at Campsite #23
Great campground, the host were great and there to help in any way possible. Bathrooms and shower were very nice and up h the o date. Site were good size for us with a green space for our dog.
@EdwardT1368517 · Camped on Mar 12, 2026 at Campsite #14
Last minute booking for 3 nights at 3 different sites. Volunteer staff helped coordinate the moves to the next site very well. This is our favorite campground in the area, and is pretty close to our home base. Its always well maintained, clean, etc. This visit, early March, there were quite a few flying insects, not mosquitos, probably a spring blooming. Im sure we will return as often as we can.
@RobertS9225788 · Camped on Mar 12, 2026 at Campsite #29
Nice campground, the sites were a little crowded but the main reason we didn't enjoy it was because the bugs were terrible. We couldn't go outside without being swarmed by some sort of non biting bug.

I just used PerfectCamp.com to book six consecutive August nights at the most popular campsite in one of the most popular campgrounds in Humboldt Redwoods State Park in California. That is not anything I could have accomplished anywhere else with the ease I did here! Thank you, PerfectCamp! I LOVE this site! You will find me on several other camping sites but the design, format, functionality, and personality of this the best. It’s fresh and clean.

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.
