High Springs RV Resort and campground

Welcome to High Springs RV Resort under new ownership!! This park has been transformed into a beauty. Conveniently located just a quarter mile off interstate 75, but nestled into the nature, hidden jem. Everything from the heated/airconditioned private bathouse to the concrete slabbed sites. This resort is a must see

Located halfway between UF Gatorland in Gainesville and Lake City right of I75, High Springs Campground is an ideal location that puts you smack dab in the middle of all of the state’s northernmost natural springs. And if you aren’t familiar with one of Florida’s main attractions, featuring manatees, nonetheless, then you need to look at all of these amazing springs, which make for great snorkeling, scuba diving (in some springs, not all), tubing, swimming, canoeing, kayaking and paddle boarding. 

As for High Springs, you’ll discover this destination places you smack dab in some of the Sunshine state’s most outrageously beautiful surroundings. This Ancient Oak-laden campground has the following amenities: landr-O-mat, playground, restrooms & shower facilities (very clean BTW!), 30/50 amp hook-ups (along with all the others, including water and sewage), swimming pool, picnic tables and BBQ grills. 

For tent campers like myself, High Springs offers a number of different spots in the shade (but only a few – 3 or so in the far corner of the campground, and 3 or so in the up-front area, right near all the street traffic) but the vibe at this joint feels much more like it’s made for RV’ers (some of which look like they are making this more of a permanent stay). 

Insider’s tips? Here’s a few. First of all, Kelly, who checked us in is quite possibly one of the nicest and most accommodating campground hosts I’ve ever met. Second, there’s so many great natural springs near this place – I HIGHLY recommend Ichetucknee, Gilchrist as well as Ginnie Springs: all of which, I have written other reviews on, so check those out for more details. If you get tired of roasting hot dogs and cooking beans, head on over to Pink Flamingo Diner, just a 10 minute drive in downtown High Springs, for a retro foodie experience, which I highly recommend the cheeseburger egg rolls (don’t ask, just order), the French fry basket (because all French fries should be served in a basket) and the Rootbeer Pork Chop – simply fantastic!!! 

Happy Camping!

Convenient to the freeway, but far enough that there is NO road noise. Sand and grass pads were pretty level. Plenty of room between campsites. Bath house is old concrete structure but was clean. They have a pool, but cold and cloudy when we stopped.
