There are 4 state parks with camping in the Keys that offer affordable camping. Plan early and reservations are a must.

More likely to hit the lottery than get a site in a state park in the keys

We hit the lottery for two weeks in a row last April at Bahia Honda and Curry Hammock state parks; so it can be done. I reserved the sites the December before; obviously cancellations. Be diligent and check back on the reservation site often.

Point of View in Key Largo and Knights Key in Marathon..... more condo's on the way !

Which two parks are closing?

Unfortunately, 2 big rv parks in the Keys are closing this year due to being bought by condo developers. That will cut hundreds of campsites for next winter. We bought a lot there a few years ago, knowing what was coming.

Check out Jolly Rogers CG in Marathon. Also check out Noname Key for the Pizza joint and the Key Deer.

X2 - convenient location half way down keys so easy to do day trips north and south. Rates good for the Keys.

We will be at Jolly Roger in mid April. By joining Passport America I am only paying $49 a night for 5 nights. Saving nearly $250 and PA fee was only $109 for 3 years.

Ford truck guy... I trying to remember what my site number was in My picture with the RV right at the water edge. If you look at this pic of the map of the facility, even though the site numbers are blurry, in the top row toward the left in the blue section right about where the orange rectangle is out in the water indicating North. As long as you get any of those section before the trees are indicated a few sites down to the left, it will have a similar view, but very small sites, the sewer hose of the unit to my left was only a few inches outside of that picture.

Chief neon... I'm jealous of you paying $20 per nite in Fiesta RV park, we just got back from a week there in January and paid over $100 per nite! We had a great time, and only 70 miles to Key West. Couldn't beat the view from our site though...

What site # was that ? It's beautiful ...

Howdy!

We were in site #192 right off the sunset point. We definitely enjoyed the sunsets every evening.

Bahia Honda State Park is nice and quiet. if you're military connected then I'd suggest Sigsbee Point at Key West Naval Air Station. we decided not to pull last time and stayed in the single wide mobiles rentals at Trumbo Point Naval Air Station. easy walk to downtown Key West. can't beat the cost, convenience, and the security of staying on the base.

Curry Hammock is a very nice state park with nice seperation between most sites.
