Trail Lakes Campground
Trail Lakes Campground is located in the heart of the Big Cypress Western Everglades.
The campground provides a chickee hut glamping experience in chickee huts made by local Seminole native Americans.
Whilst the thatched chickees are rustic with no water or electricity, they are situated by the campground wash facilities.
Chickee huts in the Everglades
This BYOT (bring your own tent) experience lets experienced adventurers navigate their way through the mangroves by kayak to one of the chickee sites that are dotted throughout the Everglades.
Chickee huts are sheltered camping platforms used where dry land is inaccessible - it's a man-made miniature island in the open water of a mangrove swamp.
