A wonderful campground right next to the canal. Our site (#8) had a good view. I liked this campground is small (only 9 RV sites and a few tent sites) and as it's a Corps of Engineers site, I KNEW it would be well maintained and in good repair. We used both the grill and fire ring, and the covered picnic table was appreciated when a passing rainstorm visited us. Water pressure was good, electricity was stable, and the concrete pad was perfectly level. We were there for some Spring Training baseball in west palm (30 minutes away) but were also treated to some wonderful Florida beaches nearby, as well as the features of downtown Stuart. I am already starting to make plans for returning next year!

Great hidden treasure! Very small campground, well kept up with wonderful camp hosts. Enjoyed learning about the lock while we were there. We will be back!

Nice camp site. Bath house could use a little upgrade. Overall was very nice place.

We really enjoyed watching the boats move through the locks and the visitors centre was really impressive. Id never heard about gopher tortoises before staying here. We have never been disappointed with any of the Army Corps of Engineers sites - always 10/10.

This was our second visit to this campground. Each experience has been excellent. The campground is always clean and well maintained.

We booked this COE campground back 2 years ago, but it got closed during Covid, so this was our chance to finally rebook it and we were not disappointed! The staff was very informative with the history of the locks and, although I grew up just a few miles away, I was completely unaware of this facility. The sites were nicely done with new electric, quiet nights and covered tables. The only real disappointment was the VORACIOUS mosquitoes after dark due to the marshland behind the campground.

The campground was extremely clean and well maintained. The view is very relaxing.

Very serene, clean and large sites. Very friendly atmosphere too.

We stay there several times a year as a change of scenery. It always meets our expectations.

Site was clean. Hosts were super friendly. Setting was perfect
Showers and bathroom were not as clean as could be and needed updating

Beautiful campground! Level concrete pads. Spacious sights with nice views. Covered picnic tables and fire rings.

Covid has made traveling much more difficult. However, the friendliness of the staff at St. Lucie south brought back memories of years gone by. The time there went too quickly and I look forward to returning in the future.

It was great to have the trail open again however I guess it will close for a couple of months for the lock rebuild. The only problem was that the camp volunteer never opened the office to greet people or answer questions.
@RonaldR333 · Camped on Oct 17, 2021 at Campsite #RV8
nice and clean
@SheilaH388 · Camped on Sep 24, 2021 at Campsite #RV8
Quiet, clean, beautiful sunsets, quaint, nice view of the river, a couple sailboats idocked and camped in the lock overnight. We plan on camping here again.

Lovely state park right on the river with a boat ramp & available dockage for rent. River leads right to the intracoastal after going thru the locks. Very clean & quiet at night. Has all the all the hookups with 50 amp power. Back in concrete pads that can accommodate a Class A RV. Park attendant very nice & helpful. Enjoyed our stay
@AnneW393 · Camped on Jan 30, 2021 at Campsite #RV8
Excellent campground. Too bad the viewing area for the lock and access to land across from the campground were closed due to Covid.

Great as always.
