W.p. Franklin South Recreation Area in FL -- Campground & RV Camping in Florida

WP Franklin South Recreation Area is a day-use facility along the Caloosahatchee River, located right by the WP Franklin Lock and Dam on the Okeechobee Waterway. On-site facilities include a visitor center, boat ramp, volleyball and horseshoe courts, playground, flush toilets, drinking water, and covered picnic sites. Two reservable group shelters offer electricity, water, picnic tables, and large charcoal grills. Visitors can launch boats, kayak, or fish for freshwater and saltwater species. Lee County Manatee Park and Hickeys Creek Mitigation Park sit just miles away.

The road in has not been measured -- unknown, not bad. Sits on broad, near-level ground.

Crowded here -- the nearest through road is 0.2 miles off. A river runs 0.1 mi off. Night skies measure Bortle 5 -- a rural sky with a glow on the horizon. Open country -- nothing named rises within 30 miles of here. The nearest town, Olga, is 0.6 mi off.
