We Camped at Myakka State Park with our RV | Deer, Gators, Hogs & A Perfect Pull-Through

We’re back at Myakka State Park for a fresh camping weekend — this time with our RV. Instead of a full park overview, this video focuses on our campsite tour, wildlife, and a dawn bike ride for animal spotting. You’ll see deer, gators, wild hogs, and turkeys, plus the reality of Florida rain changing the plan.

What’s inside:

Site 62 walk-through: true pull-through, big pad, perfectly level left/right, shaded L-pad with picnic table, fire ring + grill

Hookups: 50A/30A + 110V, water note, sewer at site

Non-potable water advisory this weekend (safe for shower/dishes; we filled fresh tank instead)

Accessibility: comfort station right by the site with accessible shower for our friends

Sun shade test and setup notes

Wildlife run: dawn bike ride to the gator bridge, open prairie, and lake edges

Rain reality: night lapse canceled; still scored deer, hogs, and turkeys in the morning

Timing tips for animals: park open/close windows, and why full moon weekends often pop

If you want our original Myakka episode with the canopy walk and bird boardwalk, check the card and link in the video.
