About this campground

Accessible by boat only, Backcountry Plate Creek Chickee sits on an elevated platform within the mangrove waterways of Everglades National Park. This National Park Service-managed site allows campfires and requires paddlers to navigate tidal channels to reach the wooden platform structure. The chickee provides an open-air camping experience above the water. [Backcountry Lostmans Five Bay — Everglades National Park](https://thedyrt.com/camping/florida/lostmans-five-bay) lies less than a mile southeast for those seeking additional backcountry options. Campers should bring all necessary supplies including water, as no facilities exist on-site. Plan arrivals during daylight hours for easier navigation of the waterway approach.
