Haven't been down there for about 20 years, but we have stayed at the KOA on
Sugarloaf Key a few times (mile 20).  At Christmas it was always booked
solid and the facilities were taxed to the limit.  Looks like it's still
there:

You could call and see if there are any openings.  Enjoy the sunset
gatherings at Mallory pier.
