Welcome to
Chokoloskee Island Park, a small slice of paradise on Florida's
southernmost Gulf Coast. Our immediate neighbors: 10,000 Islands
National Wildlife Refuge and the Florida Everglades National Park,
two of nature's grandest wonderlands.
Chokoloskee
is a fisherman's paradise. Whether fishing
inside the islands or the open water of the Gulf of Mexico, Chokoloskee
offers a vast assortment of saltwater fish year 'round. It is a
vastly popular area for kayaking with its sheltered mangrove islands
When staying
at Chokoloskee Island Park our staff will provide prompt, courteous
service to help make your trip memorably delightful.
Our facilities
include: a full service marina with docks
and a boat ramp; eleven newly renovated rental
efficiencies with all the comforts of home; and 22 overnight
RV and tenting sites.
We also offer units for sale or permanent rental.
Warm wet summers
and dry, nearly frost-free winters in a subtropical climate has
resulted in the survival of many rare species of birds, reptiles
and other animals unique to the United States. Numerous nearby preserves
and wildlife refuges are open to the public and provide spectacular
views of this unique natural environment.
The larger
area ranges from untouched wilderness to
sophisticated urban centers. Everglades City, three miles north,
provides delicious restuarants and basic services. A bit more than
a half-hour drive to the northwest, Naples and Marco Island provide
impressive shopping, medical services, galleries, and cultural activities.
Chokoloskee
Island Park is a friendly, unusually social community that welcomes
newcomers at evening happy hours at the park chickee. RVers, tenters,
and more permanent residents enjoy weekly bingo, arts and crafts,
special dinners, and on-going conversation most often including
detailed review of the day's fishing.
Residents
here come from all over the U.S, North America, and the world, an
assortment of people from greatly varied backgrounds who share a
commitment to friendliness and an ever-present enjoyment of good
humor.
