Blue Spring State Park Campground

Amazing!!!

After three months on the road, this was by far our most amazing camping experience. The sites are large and private. No sewage, but worth the inconvenience. Bathrooms and showers were pristine and a new washer and dryer at each. The park is home to the largest manatee population in the winter. It’s a spectacular swimming and diving area in summer, but closed in winter to protect the manatees. We thought our first day was awesome with over 100 manatees, but then a cool front came in and the next two days treated us to over 500 manatees. So sweet. Rented a canoe and tooled around with them and the abundant fish. Cute gift shop and snack bar. What a fabulous experience. This is what camping is all about! If you can get a reservation, do it. We lucked out by calling often and were able to snag three days upon a cancellation and then got lucky again while there not get 2 more days after another cancellation. It pays to be persistent.
