Great stop over for us as we came across the Okeechobee waterway! Price was very economical! We knew there weren't any amenities within a short walk (there are restrooms and trash bins) and that's the only reason it wasn't a five star.

Short slip and shallow near shore; had to be creative tying the boat to keep it off the rocks. Had to "now in" in order to get off/on the boat. Really nice park; friendly people. Water and power worked fine. Clean bathroom and showers. We spent several days here. Would recommend!

We spent two nights at the docks and it was a lovely spot! Good facilities, friendly staff and a peace atmosphere.

Some of the nicest park volunteers/ staff weve met in any of the 48 states weve visited.
@AlanS4569109 · Camped on Mar 20, 2026 at Campsite #T3
Nice site by river. Flat/gravel tent pad. Clean restrooms/shower. Small picnic table with roof.
@JamesJ5898180 · Camped on Mar 19, 2026 at Campsite #B4
Peaceful night at the dock. Bow in due to unknown depth and rocks at the shore. Finger piers are short and there are piling to tie too.Lock walkover was closed so there was not much to do.

Sailing with a late start from Fort Pierce we arrived after last lock at 4:30. Finding secure hold on 2nd try we anchored for the night a few hundred yards from dock slip 4. Over the years we have enjoyed many weeks at the park and have always found the facilities clean and in good condition. Walking trails are available, so are alligators and tortoises. We keep our pets away from the shoreline.

We had engine trouble while transiting the Waterway, and decided to stop at St Lucie Lock. Unable to get a service tech immediately, we decided to take a boat slip and wait for a repair. The facilities were well above expected, the depth was adequate near shore, and there was no wake and no tide! It was an outstanding experience, and other boaters and campers were well behaved and cordial. We will not hesitate to stop by and spend a couple days in the future!
@MarkG5733121 · Camped on Mar 8, 2026 at Campsite #RV7
Nice and quiet. Great views of the lock. Charming downtown Stuart close by.
@PattyG9118726 · Camped on Mar 8, 2026 at Campsite #RV9
Nice affordable campground. Very friendly staff. Having the canal with boats is a plus. Loved exploring Jensen, Stuart & Jupiter.
@SteveC5760416 · Camped on Mar 5, 2026 at Campsite #T3
Friendly staff, quiet location, clean bathrooms. close to many restaurants, grocery stores, interstate and water. Seems perfect to me from my quiet tentsite.
@GaryF7333860 · Camped on Mar 4, 2026 at Campsite #B1
A super little park with a small dock and short finger piers. But once tied up, full electric and water and calm fresh water makes the place a hidden gem!
@FrankR3038480 · Camped on Mar 1, 2026 at Campsite #RV3
Extremely clean, well designed COE park. Great location next to the locks with awesome bird watching and boat tracking. OTA TV and T-mobile had strong, clear signals. We had RV site 3, which is directly on the water with it's own patio and plenty of space for our RV and towed-car. This is a small campground but all the campsites have plenty of space and there doesn't appear to be a bad one among them. This campground appears to be very popular with sites hard to reserve, but if I ever get a chance again, I will definitely stay here.
@JamesH5225020 · Camped on Feb 28, 2026 at Campsite #RV6
So relaxing and laid back here.
@BryanR50D2FCF9 · Camped on Feb 20, 2026 at Campsite #RV4
beautiful back in site with electric and water. We tried 4 years before getting a spot here and it was well worth it.

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.
