Cracker Barrel parking, not too noisy and nobody will bother you. Please do not treat this like a campsite. Keep your doors and windows closed and take your trash with you.
Why? By checking in after you’ve visited a place you let others know this place is still functional. You can also add or correct any information.
Great spot for the night! By 10:00pm there were another 10 vehicles camped out! I’d stay again!
Report Check-InEndroit parfait pour 1 nuit. Certains soirs très achalandés dont le jeudi, vendredi bien. Très propre et accueillant.
Report Check-InSpent a nice quiet night. Many other rigs of every size stayed here too.
Report Check-InStop for one night and had breakfast in the morning. Very quite place with lots of parking space. We were around 20 RV. Thank you again Cracker Barrel !
Report Check-InHoly crap! Everybody goes here...felt like an RV festival. No complaints though. Level parking, good signal & it was quiet even though it was right by a busy highway. The hashbrowns were mint.
Report Check-InGood place to stay for the night on the way to the Keys. There were many RVs/Class Bs, but there are lots of spots. What everybody else is saying, it's not a camp ground, treat the parking lot with respect.
Report Check-InStayed for one night and had a lot of campers van, rvs and trailers with us. In the morning, around 7am, we used Cracker Barrel restrooms and that was pretty clean.
Report Check-InAs everyone mentioned, there were a ton of campers, but still plenty of spots. Sort of a noisy part of town but my new attitude in Florida is that beggars can't be choosers. This spot worked great for exploring the Everglades for a couple days.
Report Check-InPlease people! Do not treat this like a campsite. It’s ruining it for everyone else. Keep your stuff inside your rig and your doors closed. please be respectful so they will continue to allow us to park here.
Report Check-InParty Barrel. But not to worry, it was all fellow campers. More vans and motorhomes than regular cars. Counted 15 on our side of the lot alone. SO grateful CB is still allowing this. It was a last resort.
Report Check-InStill a reliable place for an overnight. Lots of vans and RVs but fairly quiet. Stayed three different times with no issues.
Report Check-InI saw no signs prohibiting camping, coming in the RV entrance. Called the store and they said it was OK to overnight. We stayed the night; lot was packed with RVs and cars doing the same. Very convenient going to/from the Keys.
Report Check-InMore rvs and vans than ive ever seen at a CB. Over 20 when i pulled in at 9pm. Some are very obviously living here (propane and campchairs etc outside) and not overnighting - which sucks, because when people abuse areas its how they get shut down for everyone
Report Check-InPulled up and saw a sign that said “no overnight parking per code”. Asked inside though and the worker immediately said it was fine without a second thought, and the parking lot was full of Vans and RV’s. Will update if we have an issue overnight
Report Check-InStayed right next to roadway so there was noise, but nothing crazy.
Be careful…our generator was stolen off our tailgate while hooked up and running at about 2:30 am.
Cracker Barrel said some E-Bikes were stolen the other day.
Report Check-InAs usual, Cracker Barrel a great spot for overnight parking. arrived around 1:00 a.m. and slept like a baby until 10:00 a.m.. did a little bit of work on the computer in the truck, grab some coffee inside Cracker Barrel, and left the scene around 2:00 p.m. highly recommended.
Report Check-InPerfect for a free night near the Keys. Was really calm for a parking lot, you’ll definitely won’t be alone but I find it reassuring.
Report Check-InThis place is great but also kind of the only game in town at this point. Tons of campers and RVs.
Report Check-InStayed here an additional two nights right before and after our one day excursion into the keys. No issues. Would stay again.
Report Check-InCalled and asked permission to stay overnight in our camper van and was told it was allowed. The lot is on the larger size and level so we found a nice spot for our van in the back corner of the lot. There is a lot of road noise and it lasted throughout the evening. We thought we also heard arguing from people somewhere in the distance. Other than that it was a nice place to stay in great proximity to the keys. Lots of other van lifers and RVers so we felt safe. Would stay again.
Report Check-InGreat place to stay. Food is good. Bathrooms are always clean. We travel with 3 huskies and there is plenty of room to walk them. Grounds are clean as well. Other rigs here at night. Lights of bright lights so bring your window coverings.
Report Check-InStayed here for two nights without any problems whatsoever. Backed into a parking space on the side that faces the Home 2 Hotel, and felt very safe. Would definitely stay again.
There was plenty of other campers, and it was quiet throughout the night. If you park a little closer to the restaurant than we did, you will probably be able to reach their WiFi.
Report Check-InFeels safe to us. Have stayed here three times in the last month as we move around FL and the National Parks. Lots of other RVs and vans. Pretty quiet for a Cracker Barrel too. There is a decent mirco brewery one parking lot over - Exit One Taproom
Report Check-InNice CB, close to the Keys and Everglades National Park. We talked to a guy who’s used to come here, he told us that many bikes were stolen before. We had no problem but be safe & lock your bikes!
Report Check-InNice place for a good night rest. Didn’t feel threatened at all.
Report Check-InNice place for a night's rest and good breakfast. Thanks Cracker Barrel!
Report Check-InStayed 2 nights before and after doing some diving on Key Largo. No problems and felt safe for us. Lots of other rigs of all sizes in the lot. WiFi available near front of the store which we used while they were closed.
Report Check-InOvernighted here with about 12 other RVs of different types, plus 3 cars. It was the typical CB next to a couple of hotels and not too far from the highway. I saw security references in other notes. Exercise your usual caution but it was a quiet night and I did not feel unsafe.
Report Check-InWe were a little weary to stay here due to previous comments.. but it was not a problem at all! In fact there was at least 10 other vehicles.. campers,vans,etc staying here also. We felt totally safe and fine for the 1 night we stayed here :)
Report Check-Intwo separate employees and a mom all recommended that this is not a safe place to stay. they strongly recommended I keep moving.
Report Check-InGot my bike stolen over night although it was locked. Watch out for your valuables.
Other overnighters were there, parked next to me.
Easy, 10 other vehicles. busier than I expected. Some campers with their slides out? :/ no problems at all.
Report Check-InBack again for another night, this time northbound coming from Key West. I did move my car at one point around 11 or so because there was someone parked near me that kept having different cars pull up next to them for short periods of time (probably dealing drugs if I had to guess). Still felt safe in the lot though (especially after the move) since there were about 5 or 6 other overnighters, so I wasn’t alone.
Report Check-InStopped here for a night before making my way to the Keys the next day. Only 3 hours from Key West. Lots of road noise, but not much movement in the parking lot overnight.
Report Check-InPerfect spot for overnight going to or coming from Everglades or the Keys. Plenty of space, even on busy travel nights.
Report Check-InLooks more like a campground than a Cracker Barrel. The parking lot was so full of RVs and vans, with some running their generators, and others with their slide outs all out. We came in around 8:30pm and there weren’t many spots left to park. Pretty noisy with the highway traffic but thankful to have a place to stay for the night.
I recommend you arrive early for this place, especially if your rig is on the larger size.
Report Check-Instayed one night. A dozen other EVs, vans and such here. Lights come on at dusk. Felt safe. Close to busy road, so a bit noisy, but excellent location considering how hard it is to find a reasonably priced spot in the location.
Very grateful to Cracker Barrel for their generosity, so I picked up some trash others left behind.
Plenty of space for super-long vehicles if you have one. Easy to find and to maneuver in and out of. Easy run to the Florida Keys from here.
Spent 2 nights here, 1 on our way to Key West and a second one on our way back. A LOT of RVs of all kinds all over the lot. We slept well, pretty quiet. Friendly staff. Thanks CB !
Report Check-InFull lot with vans/RVs/trailers/car campers. Busy area and typical city noise. Quieted down later in the night. Would stay here again.
Report Check-InThe reviews show this CB has a long history of generosity and hospitality. The staff here and other CBs are openly friendly and helpful.
Report Check-InLots of parking for our van and very quiet. Next time would try to avoid parking directly under one of the street lights.
Report Check-Inbig parking lot. Arrived after dark so not sure how many spots there are for rv/bus parking. Some noise from the interstate
Report Check-InNice lot. 3 rvs styed the night too. No problems. Woke up to two cops parked near me, they were only inside eating, they did not bother me. Would stay again
Report Check-InNice and quiet at night. We parked facing the Walgreens. The 6 RV spots filled up quickly after 9pm. The mornings here are busy, and the bathrooms are clean.
Report Check-InGreat spot! Would recommend. Not too noisy even being by the high way. Woke up and there was at least a dozen others parked here so it does have the possibility to fill up
Report Check-InStayed here two nights. The highway is pretty noisy, we got woke up once or twice from horns and sports cars. We had a nice breakfast inside the first morning we stayed here. The second night I left my flip flops outside the van and they were stolen, so don’t leave any of your belongings outside. Other than that it was a decent place to park for a few nights.
Report Check-InSo nice that they allow us to stay there for free! Only stayed for a night, and there were a bunch of other campers and rvs parked there with us. Pretty quiet too!
Report Check-InNice big lot with shade in the morning. Enjoyed the dinner and all the workers were friendly.
Report Check-InGreat spot to stay overnight. I stayed 3 nights. There are a lot of RVs, vans, campers, etc. It was the perfect location to visit both Biscayne NP and Everglades NP.
Report Check-InDecent parking lot with several other RVs, vans and other overnighters. The Cracker Barrel is nice and the lot itself is well light and feels safe. It’s walking distance to Walgreens and Starbucks. There were homeless smoking or sleeping by the dumpsters behind Walgreens.
The intersection of Palm and 1st is one of the noisiest I’ve been near in a while. All evening we heard motorcycles and sports cars drag racing.
During the day, there is constant car honking as everyone fights to pull into or out of the Starbucks or gas station across the street.
Many parking spots available before 5:30pm. Woke up with the spots filled with other campers. Quiet and comfortable!
Report Check-InCracker Barrel parking lot. Big lot, had no issues, several vehicles parked for the night. The lot is tucked back off the main road so it's fairly quiet. I have parked here a few times, always feel safe
Report Check-InStandard Cracker Barrel- lots of overnighters. We took the last RV spot this afternoon (around 5) and there were at least 2 more parked in the street (with trailers) and about 10 sprinter vans and other smaller vehicles (like two pick-ups with truck bed campers). it was busy.
Report Check-InI agree with previous comments. Felt safe, several other campers of the sort, grabbed breakfast in the morning and all was well!
Report Check-Instopped here based on recommendations through app. Had no issues through the night. some highway noise but a good safe spot. I woke up early (6:30am) and noticed through the night 2 others in trailer campers had pulled in for the night.
Report Check-InJust spent a calm and pleasant night in here. As good as described by others.
Report Check-InWe've spent 2 nights on this parking. Many campers during the nights, be sure to choose a spot in the parking where you can be far from noisy RV's with climatisation on all night long. ;)
Cracker barrel toilets accessible during opening hours.
Report Check-InGreat spot with a lot of other RV's and Vans. Not too noisy with many parking spots.
Report Check-InNot noisy at all! I parked in the back corner by the Hilton and got an ok wifi signal from them. Hilton also had a security guard patrolling their lot all night with a full view of my van, so that made me feel extra safe. At least 4 other bigger vans parked here, but saw a bunch of giant RV’s towing cars come and go because this parking lot isn’t big enough (7 big RV parking spaces just a little longer than two normal parking spots put together) so I wouldn’t recommend this to anyone in a huge rig (also I don’t think it’s respectful taking up so much of the lot and not leaving space for customers).
Report Check-InVery busy parking lot. Lots of vans, fifth wheelers, and Class A's. Some even had their slide-outs out
Report Check-InStayed with plenty of campers in the parking lot. Nobody bothered us.
Report Check-InExactly as described but wanted to add one thing. Do not park in the dark section behind the store. We chose this spot to avoid the heavily lit parking lot. Ended up getting our bike cover slashed by someone attempting to steal bikes off the back of our rig. No other issues beside that.
Report Check-InCracker Barrel parking lot. Restrooms open till 10am on weekdays and 11 on weekends.
If you need a place to stay in this area I would recommend here. I would not recommend trying to find your own spot somewhere, it is not a safe neighborhood by an stretch of those words.
However, we stayed here for two nights, both nights there were at least 4 or more other vans or rv’s. Staff at the barrel is very friendly.
Not much else to say it’s a parking lot, it’s safe, and it’s not crazy noisy!
Report Check-InIt was very safe, quiet and spacious, we were able to use their toilets till closing time. They have cheap meals all day.
Report Check-InVery safe place. Other VR and cars was sleeping here too. Noisy a bit but It’s still OK to sleep and parking is huge so you can choose a place. People at the restaurant was nice and gave us fresh water and ice and you can use bathrooms until they closed. No WiFi in the restaurant
Report Check-InPlenty of space to stay overnight. Pretty quiet stay considering the road is nearby, however there was noise from someone cleaning the carpark very late at night. A few other campers around. Felt safe.
Report Check-InStayed here 2 nights in a row - left during the day. Great spot to prepare for an adventure to the keys!
Had dinner here the one night to say thanks for allowing the overnight. Large official RV/bus spaces, plus other shady spots around the perimeter. RV spots on the right side (facing the store) are uneven. Lots of other rigs here both nights. Unfortunately their generators were running all night. We stayed in our 19’ Roadtrek Class B van with a bike rack on the back.
We didn't think it was noisy! There were 5 other rvs parked for the night.
Report Check-InManager was super friendly and said it would be no issue for us to stay. We stayed here one night in our RV. It did get a little noisy around 2am but seemed to be a work truck for the restaurant. No one bothered us. We would stay here again.
Report Check-InEasy, comfortable spot. About 6 other campers there when we pulled in around 9pm. A bit noisy but nothing crazy. Had breakfast there in the morning and it was great.
Report Check-InGood place to stay. It wasn't that noisy. 3 big RV's were staying there, too, and a trailer and other vans.
Report Check-InNice place to park your car, van or rv overnight. A lot of space for big rigs.
Report Check-InComments are correct - it is very(!) noisy - we moved away to a another spot close by. Bring ear-plugs if you want to stay here.
Report Check-InA bit noisy but a really safe place. RV's, cars and pick-up slept here to
Report Check-InCracker Barrel parking, noisy but nobody bother us and other vehicles were sleeping here too.
You can use the restroom while the restaurant is open.
