It's all about that bass.
While Curry Hammock is our favorite campground in the Keys, well, the bathroom facilities, not so much. It's not that they are bad or dirty, in fact, they are kept spotless by the best efforts of the volunteers, it's just that they are a little different.
In an interest to be Eco-friendly the state put in a recycling system. What does that mean? I am not completely sure but no chemicals or excess water are involved. All this is done below the structure which sits some 16 feet off the ground. This also makes this the highest spot in the park, with the best views for sunset photos The toilets are similar to vault toilets, no flushing just a good drop, plop and you close the lid, fast, so nothing can fly out. Remember this is Florida and keeping the place open keeps the air flowing, and gives the bugs, lizards and other interested parties a home for the night. And on the days when there is a breeze, you can feel it across your bottom. On a good day, they really do not smell but this year, which has been a bit hotter than past years, it has had an smell at times, not the best smell but not as bad as the conventional vault toilets either. Live and learn, that's what I say and Curry hammock is a great place to stay
