From jct I-10 (exit 225) & US 19: Go 1 block N on US 19, then 400 yards W on Campground Rd.
Nice, quiet and peaceful. Not much amenities on gravel, dirt road. Honor system for $30 a night. Back in or pull through, basic or 30/50 amp full hookups.
Treed level spaces gravel in dirt. Well shaded with tall pines. Great for a few nights if you want some quiet. Laundry and pool on site.
Spacious sites with picnic table and full hookups
Honor system check-in service. Laundry onsite consists of two coin washers and one dryer but the dryer is at least free.
My first site was over an open leak of the septic system. The box was finicky and went out numerous times until it blew and burnt my surge protector and power cord.
( I had to pay electrician to come rewire,replace and repair several issues from incident) the box next to my site had same issues+ having a built in fire ant nest right into the pole and flipped so regularly I had to switch sites completely to other side of park.
Shower and bathrooms are clean unless you count the hoards of black wasps ( just stood by with my flying insect spray to keep them away from the showers while the kids washed)
On site groundsman, came by on riding lawn mower and happily unplugged my ac with zero permission or warning and then rode away after he was done leaving it undone without an apology or at least plugging it back in.
*"Playground" consists of one chain link swing.
*"Pool" consists of empty hole with a foots worth of shallow mildewed and murky water with happy little active creatures swimming within surrounded by large grass overgrowth but at least fenced so no one falls in I've been told it will be " repaired" soon, but informed by long-term residents it's been this way for several months.
*"Clubhouse consists of sectional couch, empty unplugged mini fridge, dvd player with no tv and a microwave that doesn't warm.
**Lastly, man in pickup truck shows up about 6pm to my camper and announces "the owner of the park says it's time to move on, you have until 5 pm tomorrow to leave the property"
I call the office to be told that WAS the owner and they did not leave any reason as to why they wanted us to go. No disputes with the office or any of the other friendly patrons. Just that's what he said so it needs to be left at just that"
STAY FAR FAR away!!!!!
We stayed for one night and easy access from I-10. The campground has plenty of shade from pine trees and full hookups. It is a very quiet except for the expected road noise from I-10. Bathrooms are older but clean. No toilet paper in the ladies bathhouse. We will definitely stay here on our way thru again.
This is a perfect stop for a night when traveling. The grounds are kept nicely and there is an in ground pool. It’s right off of I-10 and 19. Super easy to get in and out and there are pull throughs so you don’t have to unhook. The hosts were super friendly and made sure our stay was comfortable. We will definitely be back.
Monticello FL has a Good Sam member benefit. A camping place you're going to like that is the easiest check in. Our picture is taken to show vacancy camp sites available on the day of our visit.
