This is our second time Camping at Fort De Soto and we look forward to coming back again. We enjoyed riding our bikes all over the place, checking out the fort, the beaches, the campground. We spent a lot of time on the water, it's wonderful for boating. We especially enjoyed going out onto north beach and looking for sand dollars. There were lots of shells to be found as well as sharks teeth. The campground itself is quite large and the sites are nicely spaced out and beautiful with trees all around. If you bring a boat, you can choose a site that where it can be kept on the water, which is really nice. The bathhouses and laundry facilities were all in good condition, clean and well kept. The camp store is really small, but I bet they have something if you need it. :)

We stayed on a waterside site in the no-pet section. We were able to anchor our small boat right off the campsite. The site was very large. There was electricity and water connections at the site. The bathhouse was right across from our site. The showers were clean and had excellent water pressure. The drainage for the showers spilled out onto the bathroom floor and the shower head was a bit leaky, but otherwise this place was impressive. The site was less than $40 per night. We had great cell reception. We were 10 minutes by boat from Shell Island Preserve that had plenty of beautiful beach to walk and swim. Even though this is Florida (where you expect a lot of bugs) we had a totally bug-free experience. We will absolutely come back!!!

Fort DeSoto campground is a beautiful place and really hard to get a reservation for but there are some drawbacks. The roads are all dirt with really big potholes. The dust from the constant flow of traffic gets on everything, and I mean EVERYTHING! Grit gets in every small place and crack and crevice possible. They try to wet the roads to keep the dust down, but that only creates more grit getting in everything. Secondly, the campground is really tight and when I say tight, I mean trees hanging out into the road and into the campsites. Backing a 40 foot RV was nearly impossible and I only managed it because I had three spotters. One of the best thing about the park is dogs are only allowed in the designated dog camping area. One third of the campgrounds is for dogs only. 🎉🎉 If you break the rules and have a dog in the other areas you will be removed from the park. Would I go back? Yes in a minute, the area is that beautiful.

The only complaint is how popular this place is. It is difficult to get a site without lots of planning or a lot of luck. Be prepared, you are camping after all. Bug spray, sun screen, and Ice.... have plenty. Enjoy beautiful views, access and hot showers!

Beautiful campsites - each site shaded and secluded from adjacent sites. Picnic table, electricity, water spout and grill at each site - NO fire rings. But you can have a small fire inside the grill. Water-view sites! Restrooms with lots of showers and toilets! Laundry. Camp-store. Kayak launch from campsite - no rinse station. The bugs are real here! Bring the good strong bug spray! No-see-ums are insane!!!
