Everglades City was a great location to explore the Big Cypress National Preserve. During our last visit to Big Cypress a few years ago, we stayed at the Outdoor Resorts of Chokoloskee, but we were evacuated because of flooding from storm surge. This time, we wanted to try something different and a little bit higher above the water.
Grassy Key is one of 1,700 islands in the Florida Keys. It’s in the middle keys, just northeast of Marathon. In the past, we stayed at Big Pine Key, which is southwest of Marathon, but at the time we made our reservations, they were still rebuilding the RV park from Hurricane Irma. It was a great location to explore the area, or just relax watching the water conditions change each day.
