Campgrounds in Miami, Florida

First off, Best Camping Gear Reviews is extremely sorry about the time in between posts. We have been very busy working on our camping gear site and have started another site, Best Golf Equipment Reviews. We love golf so much that we decided to start a review site on it. You can find reviews right now on the popular Callaway X22 irons with many more to come! There are some very nice golf courses in Florida….wait this is a campground directory site! Okay how about this. There are many nice golf courses in the Miami area and if you are looking for an alternative to staying in a hotel, how about these campgrounds in the Miami area.

Miami Everglades Campground is a tropical camping community with camp sites amid avocado and mango groves. Miami Everglades Campground is located in beautiful South Florida. This area is perhaps the state’s most diverse region. Miami Everglades Campground is twenty-five miles south of Miami and ten miles east of the vast mangrove forests and watery saw grass of Everglades National Park.
