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.

White Oak Pastures is a real, live working farm. This means that depending on which accommodation you choose, you may be driving on a dirt road to get there. You may wake up to cattle, sheep and goats, hogs, or poultry roaming just outside of your door. And although we do our best to make our accommodations free of any uninvited guests, you may also occasionally encounter bugs (who are trying to enjoy life in the countryside, just like you). You can dine and shop in downtown Bluffton. Our General Store offers breakfast, lunch, and dinner, and you can stock up on everything from bug spray to snacks for the road. Read more about what to expect during your stay. Most of our cabins do not have TV or Wi-Fi. We find most of our guests actually enjoy this change of pace as a “digital detox” from busy everyday life. We hope you will disconnect from your devices and connect with nature. Don’t worry: if you do need it, free Wi-Fi is available at our General Store. Our on-farm accommodations are certainly pet friendly! We do ask that dogs are kept on leashes while out exploring the farm because we do have guard dogs that roam and protect our herds and flocks from sharp tooth predators. There are a couple of places on the walking tour such as the processing abattoirs that we cannot allow pets. There’s plenty to do in South Georgia. You can stay busy with a tour of our farm, local hikes, and visits to other local tourist attractionsv. We provide custom maps and are happy to make recommendations for local attractions when you plan your visit.
