New ownership as of 8/19/22 has been a disappointment. There is no clear on-site management. There is no way to contact the owner.

Rules/policies/rent/office hours changes have no advance notice and are communicated poorly, if at all. Passport America discounts were cancelled 8/19/22. Rules are not uniformly enforced. Rent jumped $100/month on 1/15/23 per letter on everyone’s door – I suspect to fund all the new improvements to make this an RV “resort” as opposed to campground.

Restrooms/shower, laundry facilities, cable and wifi are decent. There is a grassy area to park extra vehicles/boats/trailers. A new pickleball court, corn hole boards and gazebos have just been installed.

In the office building, there is a small rec room with card tables and a closet space with a broken down treadmill and elliptical. Neither work well.

There is a coded gate, but the code has only changed twice in the last 15 months and one or both arms get stuck open frequently, negating the “security”.

Nighttime street lighting is inadequate for walking after dark without flashlights and the speed bumps are tripping hazards in the dark.

The pool is pretty and kept clean. Lounge chairs and sun shading is around the pool.
There’s a nice stream running through the property and 3 tortoises in a pen by the office.
Some lots are long and asphalt; the rest are shorter and dirt/gravel. Many of them are not level. There are picnic tables, charcoal grills and fire rings at each site.

Water is from a well and pressure is low. Underground pipes break periodically so expect unannounced outages. Sewer is a septic field at the SW corner of the property and is very stinky for those sites close by.

The campground is located in a nice wooded area with the larger sites under mature trees. There is a nice half mile trail on the adjacent vacant parcel to walk yourself or your dog. There’s also a fenced dog park, about 15’ x 60’, at the NW corner of the property.

I’d recommend Cherry Blossom for a night or 2 but not long term. I’m leaving after 15 months for a place where I feel respected and valued. Daily rate is $60/night

Boyd’s Campground has one thing going for it… it’s the closest campground to Key West. We were a bit hesitant when we got off of US Route 1 and headed toward’s Boyd’s. The neighborhood along the way to the campground appeared to be quite depressing. But once the campground appeared it looked like a lush tropical oasis.

The interior roads were mostly well maintained gravel. The campsites were quite close together with little privacy, but this is premium property and understandable. Actually we’ve stayed in other oceanside campgrounds in the northeast that were just as crowded. They do have quite a few additional charges for amenities. Amenities include 50 amp and 30 amp hookups, a heated swimming pool, a lounging beach, 24 hour security, Free WiFi, a marina, a gift and convenience store and 4 bathhouses. The campground is reasonably well maintained.

They are located right on the water… and they charge to put a boat in the water… they charge for your trailer… and they charge dock rental. Rates are quite high… over $100 a night for a full hookup but again, this is prime camping real estate.
