We arrived on April 1st — the day that most of the "Snow Bird" were leaving for their summer destinations. When we checked in — they had us in a site pretty close to the highway — which is something we really don't like due to the noise. Good thing the Snow Birds were leaving — lots of other sites opened up and we were able to get a premium site deeper in the park — just across from the water. We spent a month here and enjoyed every minute of it — even when there were some pretty good storms with buckets of rain. This park offers stunning sunrises and sunsets. Its so close to Key West, Bahia Honda State Park and the 7 Mile Bridge. The 7 Mile bridge has walkway right next to it that is a mile long — lots of people fishing and walking. It was close enough to ride our bikes. We were able to see Nurse Sharks, Sting Rays, a Sea Turtle and Tarpon. Key West is about 45 minutes away and a shopper's paradise — lots of places to eat and drink too. Busy — busy — busy — even during the week — tough to find reasonable parking. There is a sunset celebration every night at Mallory Square showcasing arts, crafts, street performers, psychics and food carts. The water is so clear and beautiful — we decided to get an inflatable kayak for two. It is a Sea Eagle SE 370. So far we are in love with it. The only down side of the resort — was the over abundance of kids in the pool. The pool is salt water — which is nice — however after all the kids — it gets pretty murky — so we pretty much stayed out of the water and of course, it was spring break and a lot of activity and a lot of golf carts with kids driving (suppose to be licensed drivers? ) All resorts we have been in — always have a rule about loud music at your site. This park is a little too lacked about it. We did get to meet some fabulous people and hopefully they will turn into long time friends.
