For John Prince Park Campground: Great campground. Short term (less than 2 wks) sites are all along the water great to watch all the birds and boaters. Very quiet even this next to the airport (sm planes). Great laundry credit card only but very clean. Huge community park so lots of trails to bike or walk. We did see a gator and lots of iguanas at one end of the campground. We had an Egyptian goose nest right at our site. We’re hoping eggs would hatch but they didn’t. Beautiful bird. Looks like goose but very colorful. Close to beaches and plenty of stores. Bernie’s on the beach great restaurant right in the beach

For John Prince Park Campground: LOVE this place. The campground is actually quite large but if you are staying for a short time, odds are you will be near the water and you won’t see most of the RVs. They have quite strict rules so it is a wonderfully quiet and terrific place to stay, despite the large numbers of long term tenants. No bright lights at night. No loud music. No “living rooms†set up outside. The short term sites are by the water. Most are sloped but the location makes up for this inconvenience. The park is centrally located. It is also near a marshy area with many different birds. Watch your pets though as there are large iguanas and I was told a gator was roaming nearby. Also, due to Covid, they don’t take cash in the office so if you want to purchase ice or buy laundry tokens, you need a CC.

For John Prince Park Campground: Have stayed here each year since I last left a review. Remains a beautiful park with a lot of wildlife and nature to see. Unfortunately some of the wildlife is the growing invasive iguana population. The ones in the park are still very afraid of humans and scatter when you go outside. A confederate flag was flown. The park is affordable for the region and another thing I enjoy is that area restaurants and grocery stores are much more inexpensive than they would be just 20 miles south.

For John Prince Park Campground: This camp ground is exceptional. It is part of a very large county park with golf, tennis, volleyball, boating, paved paths, pavilion with exercise machines, exercise trail, dog runs, etc. If you have bikes there are convoluted miles to cover around the lake.
The campground has seen several expansions over the years. The original lakeside front part is now mostly tents and small units. Spacing is a bit tight; some are level; 30 amp and water; 14 day max.
Later development on the south end and lakeside has longer and wider 50 amp/sewer sites for larger rigs. There are a dozen pull-through sites in the back by the airport.
The major part of the sites away from the lake are part of the final expansion and are very typical in size and spacing.
Levelness can be an issue for motor homes. Look at sites before deciding. Do not expect good WiFi. Electric is very good. Water pressure regulators are standard. The office accepts package deliveries for long term campers. Expect private airplane activity during the day and week ends.

For John Prince Park Campground: We had a lovely site next to the water because we were staying only 2 nights. Campers staying longer are located farther away from the water and spaces are much closer together. The park is isolated from the urban area surrounding it. Sites are paved and full hookups available for longer stays. The facilities leave a lot to be desired, tiny and cramped, bare basics only.

For John Prince Park Campground: Here in the "summer" (Ends in October) when only the far end of the campground is open. These spaces are wide paved spaces with a large area of grass between them. Selected a "lakeside" space where the space is about 20 feet of grass from the lake. Drove past the additional "winter" section where the spaces are closer together. Very quiet despite the urban setting, You would think you were in the countryside - the park has a large buffer around the camping area and the camping area is gated from the rest of the park. Did not use the facilities so can't comment on them... the buildings look a little older. Staff very friendly.

For John Prince Park Campground: What a gem! We were at the end and had a large grassy area around us. We were treated to a parade of waterfowl. So pretty. Attendant was very helpful,
