    Marianna, Florida

    Blue Hole Campground at Florida Caverns State Park is a solid spot for anyone looking to enjoy the great outdoors near Marianna, FL. This place has got it all—caverns, trails, and even a spring for swimming. The campground is open year-round, so you can plan your visit whenever it suits you.

    The campground offers a mix of tent, RV, and cabin accommodations. The tent-only sites are nicely separated from the RV spots, giving you a bit of that back-to-nature feel. However, some campers have noted that the tent sites could use a bit more privacy. The RV sites are spacious and come with full hookups, including water, electricity, and sewer. Some sites even have hammock posts, which is a nice touch.

    One of the standout features here is the cavern tours. Visitors rave about how informative and fun they are. The hiking trails are another big draw, offering beautiful scenery and a good workout. If you're into kayaking or canoeing, rentals are available, though some folks mentioned they didn't have time to try them out.

    The amenities are top-notch. Clean bathrooms and hot showers are a big plus, especially after a day of exploring. There's also a market on-site for any last-minute supplies you might need. Pets are welcome, so feel free to bring your furry friends along.

    The campground is pretty quiet and peaceful, making it a great place to unwind. The staff gets high marks for being friendly and helpful, which always makes a stay more enjoyable. If you're planning a trip, make sure to check out the Blue Hole spring and maybe even take a dip if the weather's right.

Just a heads-up: keep an eye on your pets and small children near the water, as there have been occasional gator sightings.

    Amenities include clean bathhouses, electric hookups, and picnic tables. While there's no cell service at the campsites, you can get a signal at the visitor center if you need to check in with the outside world. This lack of connectivity can actually be a blessing, giving you a chance to truly disconnect and enjoy the peace and quiet.

    Whether you're here for the history, the natural beauty, or just a relaxing getaway, Kolomoki Mounds State Park Campground has something to offer. Enjoy your stay and don't forget to visit the mounds at sunrise for a truly magical experience.
