    My father was a guide at Slims Fish Camp after retiring from the Charleston West Virginia police…read moreDepartment. I visited him often and go fishing. My brother and I both were there often and I met many other folks who lived in a campground also. It was a wonderful experience to meet so many people from all the different skill sets of life. The fishing was great a meeting so many people that just seemed like normal regular everyday people, but they came from many different exclusive companies at made America run. They were all retired, but you couldn't really tell one from another because everyone got along and there was no fighting or bickering. It just seemed like a place that stood still in time and no one complained about politics or anything else, but talked a lot about fish. That's what I really liked about Belglade Marina and Campground. My brother and I came here with my son who have been shot at work and was in a wheelchair and I wanted to take him guide fishing, but it was hard to locate someone that would take him on the boat as you never know what could happen. We happen to know one of the guides from when my father was alive and in the area and he took care of us. I was a little afraid about going then, but it worked out great. It was during the time that the hurricane hit New York and passed us by heading up north while we were fishing on Lake Okeechobee. I was afraid it would be really hard but guide knew how to stay on one side of a bunch of grass and clean up that area with a couple of bass here and there. It was as if nothing changed. Everyone got along and we fish that day and went on back to our house In Largo, Florida.

    PROS: Very well kept campground. Lots of waterside spots,…read morebut most are reserved months or years in advance. Sites much larger than in most campgrounds. Very safe, lots of friendly campers. CONS: We have stayed at many parks and understand that the service isn't as good as our home, but the internet here has been the worst we have seen. Free wireless internet is unreliable and at times unavailable. No other internet options available (cable or dsl internet does not service campground area). Campground states that the internet is being upgraded; however they have been telling the campers that for years with no improvement. Water has rust particles. Be sure to use filter before introduction to your rv water system. Would we return? Yes, but only with internet improvements or options.

    Civic Park is 4.14 acres. It is located in downtown Clewiston. The park is landscaped with…read morewalkways, a playground, picnic tables, benches, and a gazebo that can be used for weddings. The park is the site of Clewiston's Veterans Day celebrations. It has statues and plaques paying tribute to the men and women of the armed forces. In the center of the park is a memorial honoring the WWII British cadets that were among the 15,000 British troops trained in aerial warfare during WWII in the United States. 23 Royal Air Force Cadets who trained at Riddle Field in Clewiston are buried in Arcadia. British soldiers are buried where they fall so they were buried near where they trained. Nineteen of the airmen were killed in training crashes, two died in car accidents, one died of meningitis, and one from pneumonia. The memorial in the park records the sacrifice made by these soldiers who died so far from home. Their graves are lovingly cared for by the people of Arcadia who honor them every Memorial Day. I had previously learned about the British airmen on a trip to Arcadia so it was very interesting to find the memorial to them in this park. Other events held at the park include the Meet at the Pole celebration, the City Market held the second Saturday of the month from November through April, Sugar Festival Arts and Crafts, and Concerts in the Park. I grabbed a Hawaiian ice from across the street and enjoyed it at the park before heading home. This is a charming place to enjoy an ice or to attend a festival.

    This is a park located in Palm Beach county, Lake Harbor, Florida. It's not a large park. In fact…read moreit kind of reminds me of a rest stop on steroids. Maybe because it's like a loop where you can enter at one end and exit at the other. A person could walk the entire length of the park in 30 minutes (or less). There are lots of big shade trees for their many picnic tables. There's a pavilion for large parties (call the number on the display board to reserve) with a small, fenced in playground next to it for the youngsters. There's also a full sized basketball court. Importantly, not far from the entrance there's a block building with restrooms. It's located adjacent to the Herbert Hoover Dike which encircles Lake Okeechobee and was built in response to the great Miami Hurricane of 1926 and the Okeechobee Hurricane of 1928 which killed thousands of people when the Lake breached a small simple earthen dike. It was designed for the purpose of flood control, water conservation, prevention of saltwater intrusion, and preservation of fish and wildlife populations. For the engineers or mechanically inclined, you'll find some old retired pumps on display, that you may find interesting. I enjoyed my brief visit as it gave me a chance to get off my bike and stretch after a long ride. Next time I think I'll walk up onto the dike. Park hours are sunrise to sunset. Dogs must be on a leash. It's worthy of a stop.

    This beautiful huge park is located along the south edge of Lake Okeechobee and adjoins the Lake…read moreOkeechobee Scenic Trail. The park has a basketball court, access for kayaking or canoeing, a large multi-purpose field and several picnic areas with grills. There is a large playground that is suitable for ages 2 to 12. Lots of parking and lots of space. I had a good walk and a nice picnic that was socially distanced and included lots of fresh air. [Review 14812 overall, 314 of 2021, number 1302 in Florida.]
