Calusa Camp Resort

So far we’ve enjoyed our stay in this campground. We did not rent a unit. We came in our RV and got a water front site. The view is amazing. It was the weekend when we first arrived day after Christmas and there was loud music playing from several different campsites. After the weekend (weekday) it stopped when they left. The office staff and security are very nice. The campers have been friendly as well. We got a great lot to stay on which I think has helped our visit. Lot 322 which is currently for sale. We will come back!

The campground is not welled marked on US 1 so you would have a hard time finding it after dark. The site’s are tight because they have a patio right in the middle of the site, but on the left hand side is where you can park your car. So you end up having to park on the right side which is very close to the next sites parking area. Also because of the many permanent residents getting in to the site is a little tricky especially in a larger rig. Unless you love Cuban music until all hours of the night, I would not recommend this place. The music was finally shut off at 1:00 am. The only thing this place has going for it is the pool. I don’t see how they can call them selves an RV Resort when it is nothing more that a permanent residence for folks. Heck, they even have houses In the park. I would not recommend this place to anyone.

I wish I had checked Unilocal before booking my stay through home away. The fact that we had to wait for security to arrive to let us in because they were dealing with something in the park that warranted FOUR squad cars should have been a warning but by then it was too late. If you like Latin music blaring from 8 in the morning until 11 at night from various trailers, of course all different songs, then by all means stay here. The women who work in the office are wonderful but the over all experience has been so terrible we spent two nights with family and now we are actually leaving a day early afraid of what is going to happen here on New Years Eve. We will never come back there is no beach access and the pool that looks beautiful to look at is surrounded by yellow caution tape so no swimming allowed. If you do come make sure the unit you are renting has the view advertised.

I just came back from a weekend at this campground and was absolutely appalled and disgusted at how unsanitary our trailer was. We had several problems throughout our stay including a non-​functioning shower, no hot water, putrid smell in trailer, unsanitary bathroom, not hot water, etc. I may as well have been camping. Will never come back here again. I regret not taking photos.

This is a pleasant place to spend weekends being relaxed. We love coming here and use it as ‘home base’ to visit the other Keys (Islamorada, Marathon).
There is a marina with a boat ramp that we use to launch our Kayak and Paddleboard. Water is shallow and clear once you leave the canal.
There is a brand new swimming pool, tennis and basketball courts. Security is also good which is important these days…
Some of the people that live there may be a little more than we’d like… so we just stay away.
Safe Travels!
