Long Key vs Curry Hammock

The bathrooms are too eco friendly, fancy composting toilets but you wouldn't know it without going in one and using it. Not my preference at all. Like all FSP's they are on this insane idea to return them as close to possible to their original natural state which means no mowing, no insect control, etc. The lack of shade can be brutal if it's hot. The swimming area was lousy, Long key was much more enjoyable in my estimation. Neither have sewer hook ups so that can create issues. Pennekamp upgraded to FHU a few years ago and the photos look nice. If I had to pick one it would be Pennekamp or Long Key.

I have to admit I liked Long Key better as it was a more rustic laid back atmosphere with better water views. There is no shade to speak of and the brush blocks most of the water views from campsites.

Thanks gypsy, that's basically what I've reading except they are saying the bathrooms are being neglected and the toilets are the more eco-friendly with no water flush. Seems like that might could be a problem as hot as it is. Altho I've been watching and its been a little cooler there than where you and I are at. Ive read that site #2 is the only site that has a water view now cause they have not cut back any of the brush. Seems like there would be no breeze at all, I don't know.
