Hillsborough River State Park Campground
Reviewed Mar. 26, 2021

Great place, but...

This was our first time camping here.  It's a beautiful park with a lovely shaded campground and lots of oak trees.  The quality of the individual sites varies quite a bit, but all of them are pretty decent.  But there's one big problem--as you can see from the photo, there's a wastewater treatment plant between the loops right in the middle of the campground!  The plant's motors/generators are very noisy and run 24 hours a day (watch the video).  It's especially loud if you're camping in sites 82 - 100.  We had to use earplugs to sleep at night.  If you want to enjoy some peace and quiet, reserve a site on one of the other loops.  Otherwise, we had no complaints.  The staff was friendly and there are lots of hiking and kayaking opportunities.
