What campers say
Shell Mound Campground is a small, affordable county-run site popular with anglers, birders and families. It offers boat ramps, a fishing pier, fish-and-game cleaning stations, a playground and nearby trails and archaeological shell mound access with good sunset views. Sites are first-come, first-served and generally basic — many visitors praise clean bathrooms and hot showers, though some report bathhouse maintenance issues and occasional loss of hookups after storms. Bring strong insect repellent for no-see-ums. The campground is quiet and friendly, with helpful staff, making it a practical low-cost base for exploring Cedar Key and surrounding waterways.
