O'leno State Park Campground

Had a great time at site 16. Went to the see the river sink then rode our bike on the green and orange trails to river rise. Did a canoe trip on the nearby Ichetucknee river, not very busy this time of year. The campground was a bit tight for backing in, but manageable. Bathrooms were cleaned daily and not too shabby. Make sure to bring tick spray.

They called the night before we arrived to let us know which slot we would be in. We arrived and it’s a beautiful setting. There were campers right next to us with a charcoal fire that they had used starter fluid on and the smell was overwhelming. Some of the sites are farther apart than the others. I would have given it 5 stars if we hadn’t been so close together and had that unfortunate smell to deal with.

Beautiful campground. Very rustic. Unpaved roads with potholes that may not be bad at other times but we were there on a rainy day so it was a bit of a rough ride getting to our site. Probably a bit tight getting in if you are in a big rig but it was no problem in our van. Sites are natural but maintained and not terribly overgrown. The park itself is absolutely lovely.

Very large site that has a great back area that is secluded from neighbors. Grounds are well kept as are most Florida parks. Short drive to several other park and springs in the area. Clean bathrooms.

Santa fe river sinks at Campground then hike or bike 3 miles to river rise .hence natural bridge. Also swing bridge built by CCC

The Magnolia campground is the only one we will stay at when going to O’Leno. The campground is about 20 minutes from Ichnetucknee and several other springs. There is swimming, hiking, kayak/canoe launch from the SP...there is so much to do in the area. The campground is quiet. There are tons of birds, tortoise, and deer. This is one of our favorite campgrounds. The sites are clean and well maintained as well as the restrooms.

O’Leno is a great place to camp if you are visiting the local springs! The campground itself is very clean and quiet. The spot we chose was a little tight to back in our 30’ camper but it is super nice! Tried going on a little family hike and all ended up with ticks so make sure you spray really good if this is on you agenda. The bathhouse here is a perk. Clean and individual, large hot showers. O’Leno is in a great location to visit Ichetucknee, Ginnie, Gilchrist and Poe springs. Only about 15min drive!
