I have stayed at all of the state parks in the Keys. They all have there appeal and are different. What are you interested in doing or looking for in a CG in the Keys?

Well one thing I am looking for is a quiet place in which we are not of each other.
I have enough of crowded city enviroment and Iam trying to avoid as much as
possible.
Thanks Bill

In that case I would recommend Long Key state park or Curry Hammock state park. I have pics of both I could share if needed. There are also some sites with pics of every site available if you need that. I will be glad to furnish anything I have to help you make a good decision.

Bahia Honda SP is nice also and gives access to the gulf and ocean. Nice sand beaches too. Not too much to do in the area but relax or fish/dive. About forty miles to Key West in case you do want to go a little bit crazy one day. Travel safely, Hank

The State Parks are definitely the best deal and most roomy sites in the keys. We have stayed in all of them. Downside it is a "real luck of the draw" to get into them. Reservations are full two seconds after the 11 month window opens up, but you might get lucky with short term stays if you are flexable and stay on top of cancellations.
There are a lot of very nice private campgrounds, but they tend to get pretty pricey. You might want to check craigslist.com as private owners often advertise sites there.

We've been going to the Key's every Feb. for 15 years now and all the state parks are our first choice, if you can get in. Sugarloaf KOA isn't bad, but it isn't cheap.

We have never stayed there, let us know how it is.
P.S. We spent a night out in front of Sunshine Key RV Resort, we had nowhere to stay.

Was that with or without reservations? You're making me nervous.
