My girlfriend, three buddies, and I are going on a 2-week vacation to the Florida Keys in January. We've been frantically trying to book reservations at campgrounds but have had zero luck.
The main place we really wanted to go (Bahia Honda) advised us to book 11 months in advance. :mad: A couple other decent looking places don't allow reservations. And, finally, the rest of the campgrounds we can find look like complete yuppie/tourist traps and aren't really camping at all seeing as they have heated swimming pools, jacuzzis, bars, restaurants, etc.
My real question is: Have any of you "illegally" (the way it should be) camped out in the Keys, and if so, could you tell me which Key would be best to do so? Or, perhaps you know of a real low-key primitive campground that most likely won't be completely booked up?
