We have made the trip twice, east to West across the lake both times.
Enjoyed both, we have stopped at St Lucie Lock Campground, Roland Martin's
Marina in Clewiston, friends living nearby brought us to the Clewiston  Inn for
a very nice dinner.  Moore Haven Docks which are fine to spend  the night,
but not much to do around there, We also spent a night at a  friend (F.F's)
dock near Ortona.  All nice spots.
In addition to all the alligators and other Florida wildlife  we cruised
past someone's canal side backyard which held a group  of Llamas and a Camel!
