Night; No lighting at night. Very dark and quite. Great to see the night sky. There is some day time noise as this is a main road across the everglades. It is a 2 lane road.
Comments; A SUPER campground for visiting the Everglades and Big Cypress National Parks. The campground was one of the nicest public campgrounds we stayed. in. We could only stay 10 days, as this is the limit in season(told after Dec. 15th to end of Mar.). It is called Midway because it is kinda midway on Alligator Alley. From here we toured the 10,000 Islands, Shark Valley, and the main area of the Everglades. Some of the areas we toured were 3 miles from the campground to 100 miles, the end of the Everglades at Flamingo. We also drove to big Cypress National park about 50 miles one way. If we come here again we would stay here and then move to the Flamingo campground for a few days. There is another campground about 8 miles west of here called Monument. There are no hook ups of any kind. the roads and sites are gravel and dusty when we visited it. It is I believe $6. a night with your Golden Age passport. It is free before the prime season. They have restrooms.
