Overall Rating Facility Rating Restroom Rating Appeal Rating We stayed on a very nice pull-thru site near the pool. The beach and picnic pavilion were awesome. Not large but great for reading a good book or just meditating. They are right on the Gulf and the sunsets were beautiful.We watched the sun set completely down into the Gulf and it was actually prettier than at Mallory Square in Key West.
The staff was very friendly and helpful.Always willing to answer any questions you might have.
We stayed here a week and traveled North or South to see the keys and attractions.Wish we could have stayed longer.
We believe their Good Sam rating should certainly be raised .

The scenery is gorgeous sitting as it does on the gulf of Mexico’s prettiest water. Lots of wildlife to enjoy including occasional visits from manatees. Management and staff are very professional and pleasant to deal with. The Jolly Roger has the best sunset views in the keys and we have witnessed numerous green flashes while staying there.

Upon leaving we were told yea we have ants. When we arrived we told management and they said they could not put anything down that would be safe for our small dogs. They should have treated everything before we arrived. The grass is also full of sand spurs.

Very pet friendly, even includes a small dog park to let your pets run. They have a great dock to fish from, sitting areas to enjoy the view, and even a snorkeling area.

Marathon has several very good restaurants and the Dolphin Research center is a must along with Turtle Hospital about 7 miles away and Key West is about an hour away. If you have a boat this the place to stay with their dock only a few yards away from your site.

Overall Rating Facility Rating Restroom Rating Appeal Rating First of all, the staff is what really makes Jolly Roger a place to stay. Cheerful and helpful in every way. We stayed over the Memorial Weekend and the Keys were busy. Campsites were reasonably level and we only needed to level our 24-footer, front to rear. Water, electric and sewer hook-ups were easy to access and each campsite had it's own concrete patio with picnic table. If you plan to barbecue with a portable/table top grille, bring your own table. There is a restriction on using barbecue grilles on the picnic tables. The Laundry, Restrooms and Showers were very clean. However, for a holiday weekend, the restrooms and showers were strained by a nearly full campground. For the Keys, rates are extremely reasonable and the office had brochures and information for most of the Keys' attractions and restaurants. Being at the Jolly Roger puts you in a convenient locale to tour the upper and lower Keys. We made it to Key West, in heavy traffic in just under an hour at local speeds. Since this is only our second year as RVers, I found the pull through sites well spaced for a rookie. Exiting the site was not a problem either. Although, if the camper across the road, parked his/her tow vehicle directly across, even an experienced RVer might have to ask the opposite camper to move his/her vehicle. Overall, we would go back in heartbeat. The location, facilities and staff were very good and it was a pleasure to stay there. While there was no camper oriented store on premises, there were plenty of stores within reasonable distance to handle any extra needs. They offer GoodSamClub and Military discounts.

I'm sure there are folks who wouldn't like this resort because there's not a fancy campstore or tons of knick-knacks to buy, they would be missing out.
The staff is friendly, helpful, and always wear a smile. The location can't be beat. Just a nice drive to Key West or up to Key Largo. Many fun things to do in the area. Great restaurants nearby.
The sites offer a nice amount of space. And did I mention you could have a site right on the Gulf?
All in all, a great place to camp!

Appeal Rating Campground had clean grassy sites with a paver stone patio. Pool was very refreshing. Campground is on the water, with a small beach, boat launch, pier and sea wall. You are roughly in the middle of the keys so it is easy to visit all of the keys. We had a 40 foot class A and there was lots of room to maneuver. Highly recommend this property. We stayed 4 nights and would of stayed longer if we had time.

Overall Rating Facility Rating Restroom Rating Appeal Rating Basically we were satisfied with the park however there are
a few things that could improve on the seaweed coming in
from the wind was terrible smell looks like they could do
something about that they tried what with what they had
but I think the management could give them some more tools
to move the seaweed away from the boat ramp so you could
use your boat and I think they could rake the sites
more often. the staff was nice. Great pool very well Up.
Laundry was clean and nice, although like an early
review took a long time dry. When we were at the park
it was pretty quiet

Overall Rating Facility Rating Restroom Rating Appeal Rating This is one of the smaller campgrounds I've stayed at in the Florida Keys. Love the location because it is right next door to the Dolphin Research Center, a quieter part of the keys where you can find good restaurants, biking and hiking trails and is in the middle keys. Fishing is great even for the shore.
The campground itself was very quiet and is family and couple oriented. Loved sitting with the community to watch the sun set at their tiki island. They have a large dog park with trees and a good sized pool. There is no beach in the campground but lots of areas to relax by the water and watch the world go by.
Everyone was very friendly and even though you heard children playing during the day it was very quiet at night. Spaces are a bit tight but you can set up your camp with quite a bit of privacy if you take a little extra time. This has now become one of my favorite Keys campgrounds and we all wanted to stay longer when it was time to go home.

Overall Rating Facility Rating Restroom Rating Appeal Rating Overall this is an average campground. It is halfway down the Keys so they hit you with the $90 a night charge which is expected. The staff were friendly but they are understaffed. When we came to check in there were 4 RV's stacked back in the road and there was only 1 person at the desk. She did a great job but needed help.
They have a roped off swimming area next to the sea wall that was nice but no actual beach.
Pro's - It's the Keys, Nice Tiki Island to watch the Sunset, Friendly Staff, great dog park!
Con's - Small sites, we had to move the picnic table because our neighbor's slide out was right next to it. Tight corners. No Beach, only 1 bathroom and it was on the other side of the park (only 2 male showers for the entire park). No playground for kids at all. I would say about 40% of the people there are long time residents (3 or more months)
Overall we had a great time but I would most likely look for a different location next trip.

The Jolly Roger is on Grassy Key at mile marker 59 and is part of Marathon, FL. It is on the Gulf side, on the water with a boat ramp and boat docks. The driveways are asphalt which are in good condition and the site pads are grass with a concrete patio and picnic table. The bathrooms are in good condition and are kept clean. The laundry is nice with plenty of machines. The free WiFi worked well for us. We had a back in site located in the interior section. We had full hookup with 50 amp electric.

Overall Rating Facility Rating Restroom Rating Appeal Rating This was a great park to stay at as it was midway down the Keys. We were right on the sea wall and greatly enjoyed the location. We were able to drive down to Key West and visit the other southern keys as well. The sites were good size, tho not level. The Dock was great to fish, watch boats, swim/snorkel, and watch the sunset from. The pool was clean & just the right temperature, plenty of lounge furniture in good condition. The signage was a little difficult to see from the highway, but once we were there we had no problems. Staff was friendly & helpful. The only issue I had was the laundry. It was clean and well kept. The 3 dryers I used (25cents for 5 minutes) did not dry very well. It took $3.00 per machine to get my clothes/towels dry. We would recommend this park and definitely would stay there again.

Overall Rating Facility Rating Restroom Rating Appeal Rating Stayed at this park for the month of March. I'll start with because we're finding it a rarity that the office staff were nice, friendly and helpful, thank you for that. We started our stay in an interior plus site which had partial ocean views depending on who was in front of you. The site itself was fine, somewhat spacious if there is such a thing in the keys, but the sewer layout is terrible. The neighbors sewer hook up was located under our picnic table right at our slab. We later moved to a harbor side site which was very large and great views. We were lucky they had a cancellation the last week of our stay. The negatives of the park are the no see ums, which we're not used to from where we come from. Within 2 days we had bites all over. The harbor side space had an ant problem. We tried spraying outdoor ant spray and they still kept on coming. There are a lot of rules at this park which I think is great, but at times the inconsistent enforcement of rules was annoying. All in all if we could get an ant free harbor side site again, we'd return in a heart beat.

Overall Rating Facility Rating Restroom Rating Appeal Rating This was the most enjoyable stay of our 3 months in Florida. The office staff was very friendly and the seasonal residents were delightful, inviting us to happy hour activities, birthday parties, and other social events. We were fortunate to get an outstanding site adjacent to the ocean. Great bicycling opportunities and swimming and snorkeling just steps from our unit. We highly recommend visiting Jolly Roger. The only downside is that it is a very popular resort and finding a vacancy may be difficult. Also, the Keys in general is a pricey area so fees are substantial.

Appeal Rating Great location, wonderful sunsets, nice friendly Staff, and very accommodating. Pet rules did not work for us and we left early as a result. Pets are not allowed to do any business other than in the pet park or on the road on the way to the pet park. Not even allowed to go on your own site even if you clean up as we always do everywhere we go. Pet park smelled very bad of urine. It was quite hot and humid when we were there so perhaps that was why but in fact the whole park had a strange septic smell going on. We left two days early and got a refund no problem, so that was great and much appreciated, but we wont be back. It was just not the place for us with our pet.

Had a bad experience this time around. Stayed her twice before but probably won't again. Four campers FULL of kids near us, parents didn't care what they did, ran around screaming day and night. Throwing fish nets in the "no fishing" area, taking all the lobsters out of the snorkel/swim area. You would think that in October these kids would be in school!
The worst part was the Management of the campground didn't care either, we notified the office but nothing was done!
I had to pay a deposit for my dog and if I didn't follow the rules could be thrown out, but apparently no such rules for wild kids.
We left three days early, couldn't take it anymore. I emailed the management when I got home and got a "Gee, we're sorry, hope to see you again soon" email back! A refund of our money for 4 days of aggravation would be more appropriate!
