What is gay camping like? Ask Men's Variety
10 Reasons Why Gay Camping is Loads of Fun
We've been passing on how fun Camp Mars is for years. But now, you don't have to take our word for it. Men's Variety, an online lifestyle hub for men (gay or straight) recently added an article about gay camping and Camp Mars was mentioned:
"But if you want more of a resort type feel, you can scoot over to Venus Florida to Camp Mars! They’ve got rental cabins and trailers galore that are great for singles and couples."
We couldn't agree more. For the rest of the article (it's a good one), click below:

What's Happening At Mars
New Wifi System
Mars is proud to announce that a new wifi system has recently been installed, providing enhanced signal through most areas of the campground. It's a great tool to keep in touch when you get away. But- please remember to be considerate of other campers: like most places, bandwidth always has limits so if you want to stream HD movies, etc., please use your own system.
RV Hookup? Of Course!
What's a campground without RV hookups? We have 30 and 50 amp sites available for a couple of days to a few months or even longer.
Group Outings? Love 'em!
Camp Mars is the perfect place to bring your group, club, or posse. Call us and we'll talk about putting together special arrangements that will make your organization's getaway one you'll never forget.
Bat Boxes Fighting Mosquitos
You may have noticed some wooden boxes placed up on poles and tress around Mars. These are new homes for some of the most effective anti-mosquito weapons known to man: bats.
These airborne mammals can eat up to 1000 mosquitos an hour so you gotta love them in spite of some misconceptions people have. Want to learn more? Visit this site: http://www.batrescue.org/batfacts/batfacts.html
