Love this park. The hosts are so nice and always willing to help. The park is always clean. We are fascinated by the locks.

1st, when we arrived we were greeted at the entrance and were provided a pleasant welcome to include guidance and approaching our site and instructions for after hours campgrounds access.

Very clean park, water and electric worked well. Neighbor campers were very friendly and helpful. This was our first time camping here but we will be back. We had a site off the water but there were very few bugs. We traveled 3 hours to get here from Titusville and it was a very easy trip. Camp workers were very friendly. The senior discount helped us a lot since we live on Social Security.

Always enjoy our stay at Ortona

Very laid back, relaxing trip. My stay was 4 nights on 4 different sites. The staff worked to switch me so I only had to move once. The Fish Fry on Saturday night was awesome!

@DonaldJ8240781 · Camped on Mar 13, 2025 at Campsite #28
Beautiful campground. Large private sites right on the water. Very well kept and it was great being able to walk over to the locks to watch the boats. Will stay again!

@PauletteW54291 · Camped on Mar 11, 2025 at Campsite #22
Great campground. Wonderful staff. Everything was very clean.
@PauletteW54291 · Camped on Mar 10, 2025 at Campsite #9
Wonderful campground and the staff was great. They texted us to let us know when our site was available because we moved sites. The park was clean and so were the bathrooms. We will come back again.
@BarryM7783558 · Camped on Mar 10, 2025 at Campsite #43
Ranger very informative along with volunteers were supper welcoming. Park was extremely well maintained.
@MarkT6244236 · Camped on Mar 9, 2025 at Campsite #14
We LOVED this RV Location... the lock was fun to watch...quiet and clean...concrete pads and great people we met while there
@ScottD5141264 · Camped on Mar 8, 2025 at Campsite #8
Great Park, very quiet and secluded. Bathrooms could use some updating
@GaryS1862766 · Camped on Mar 7, 2025 at Campsite #27
Gr8 place to camp. Shower houses need so much repair and updating. No air hand dryer in the upper campground. People coming in to fish and speeding thru the campground and up the road leading into the campground. My suggestion is charge these fishermen a fee to enter and use that money to update the showerhouses. The road leading to the campground needs repairs. It is so rough in places. Our tax dollars could be put to a better use than helping illegals.
@AlejandroA4B9F · Camped on Mar 3, 2025 at Campsite #44
Excellent support from the volunteers. For future improvement, we suggest to add coin washer and dryer.
@VirginiaR25632 · Camped on Mar 2, 2025 at Campsite #32
Awesome campground hostsBest facilities
@BrianD6953183 · Camped on Feb 25, 2025 at Campsite #38
Quiet location away from a lot of noise and light pollution. Our second year staying at Ortona and will try again next year. It was disappointing that the fishing pier and the footbridge over the canal were closed. No issues getting Amazon deliveries there.
@jeffk5543088 · Camped on Feb 25, 2025 at Campsite #17
I love this campground and I try to stay there every year. But this year my daughter and granddaughter stayed with us for a few days. They went to the bath house to shower and when they were done the one female host was standing there asked how the shower water pressure was, my daughter replied it was ok. the Host very rude said well I had no water in my camper to wash my hair.
@FernN82CCB9F0D · Camped on Feb 24, 2025 at Campsite #51
Site 51 was fantastic. Close to restrooms. Paved site. Close to locks, which we enjoyed watching the boats go through.
@NancyB3949689 · Camped on Feb 22, 2025 at Campsite #8
Although the pier on the campground side of the waterway is closed, this campground is still great! The bathrooms are clean, the grounds are well kept, the ranger is great and the volunteers are very helpful and friendly. We always look for to camping here.
@HaroldB5534382 · Camped on Feb 19, 2025 at Campsite #34
Ortona was very nice except for barking dogs in the site across from ours. The lock was interesting to watch.

I wanted to thank you for this site and especially for the notifications feature. Thanks to your site and my subscription I was able to book a campsite I've been annoyingly trying to book for 5 years unsuccessfully. So thank you.
@Wondering - Oregon
Wow! Woke up this morning to a notification that a favorite had opened at Paulina, and when I went to check, it was there. This membership just paid for itself in the first 24 hours I owned it. Couldn't take the site it conflicted with a trip already set, but it truly was there. Thanks Tons.
