"Lot's of stuff if you are into horses...stalls, trails, corrals and a horse camp facility...pretty cool!"
"I tried it but found it too cold even though August in Alabama is very hot. Campground seemed a little cramped but acceptable."
TravelerWe were placed on the equestrian site with zero privacy. Never saw the other primitive sites, I guess they were full. Bathrooms were clean and the property was well maintain and far from the highway. Cavern tour was great but we loved the paddle through Blue Lagoon. Bring your kayak or rent one there, it's definitely worth it!
GuideMy husband and I were pleasantly surprised at our stay at Florida Caverns State Park. Although not a huge cavern such as Carlsbad or Mammoth, Florida Caverns did not disappoint.
We found plenty to do at the park. We rode our bikes several miles on the many trails in the park and had a blast. Roots and rocks galore...but excellent mountain biking. The campsites are very nice with good bathroom facilities. The swimming hole rocks and the water is crystal clear. So much to do...mountain biking, hiking, swimming, geocaching (we found a cache), kayaking and even horseback riding.
The cave tour was nicely done and we were impressed as there are some nice formations and the trail near the cave was amazing...a short hike that will give you an idea of what a Florida swamp looks like and you can view several sink holes and alternate cave entrances (closed off of course).

Another great place to camp for all ages...beautiful, fun and perfect for families with children.
This is "The Real Florida"
Enjoy!
RangerThis is a gem in south Alabama with the most perfect cold water to cool that Alabama heat. The cabins are more like FEMA trailers but they have some sort of AC. Consider yourself glamping Alabama style and you will be fine
GuideThe main attraction in this state park is the spring fed pool. There is a lot of nice grassy areas plus a playground but everyone was in the water. I tried it but found it too cold even though August in Alabama is very hot. Campground seemed a little cramped but acceptable. Bugs became a real issue as the sun began to set. Come armed with repellant.
ScoutCamping with a scout troop & it was awesome even though it rained. The caverns were just incredible & the amenities were great. Plenty of room to roam & setup camp.
ScoutWe stayed here right after it reopened after damage from Hurricane Michael. The newly renovated campground is very nice, with water, electricity, and sewer hookups. The sites are nicely spaced and near a beautiful little lake called the blue hole. The restaurants we are at were delicious. One was Mashawy Grill right near the entrance to the park, and they had the best lamb chops! Then we are at Landshark Restaurant, which was about 13 miles away and had some of the best seafood we’ve ever had and we are used to good seafood as we are from Louisiana. The raw oysters were the best we’ve ever had and the fried crab claws and catfish were perfectly cooked and so good!
ScoutWe started off at the rv / tent campground. Not too private but very clean. We moved to tent only site when one was available. Peaceful, clean facilities, hot showers and a firepit. Poles for hammocks too. Helpful staff and firewood on site to purchase 5$
GuideSmall campground with very generous spacing between sites. Sites are wide and have full sewage, electric, and water. They also have hammock posts. Bathrooms were heated and are clean. Washer and dryer are available. Camp hosts were awesome and friendly. You can buy firewood from them. The kids love visiting the caverns, museum, and gift shop. Awesome experience!
RangerWhat a sweet little campground! Small loop of 32 sites. Plenty of space between sites, although with the hurricane there was very little foliage. We had perfect weather but as it gets warmer you will need the awning and AC. The sites were set up at a 90° angle from the street so very very difficult for anything but tiny rigs to back into on the first try, but we eventually got there with our 24’ trailer. All the sites have FHU but some have an odd placement for the sewer (ours was at the very front of the site by the curb) so either bring long hoses or plan to pull forward and pull the tanks on the way out. Bathhouse was clean and had a great shower and dressing set up with wonderful water pressure. Rangers and hosts were friendly, and there are lots of trails to hike including several right across from the campground with more trailheads at the park Visitors Center. Saw deer and bunnies and heard owls at night! All in all a quaint and QUIET park to relax in nature.
