Great Campground for Tubing

We stayed here in November 2019 for 2 days. Although the weather is unpredictable in Florida we had the best fall weather and we were able to enjoy the springs. Please note this is not a campground only but a public county park and has daily visitors plus people who are staying in the campgrounds. We tried to spend the day here in the summer but the park closed early because It gets overcrowded with tourist since is very close to the Orlando area. When we had the oportunity to stay in November we were able to really enjoy the facilities since the park was empty.  The small Springs river that goes through the park is very relaxing and great for tubing. The waters are usually about 67-70 degrees so it can be cold in the fall. The waters are spectacular and super clear. They have several hiking paths that are shaded and nice.  The campgrounds are covered with trees keeping them nice and cool.  This is one of my favorites campsites in central Florida.

Small, well-kept campground next to the springs

Great little spot in Kelly Park with access to Rock Springs

Unfortunately the springs were closed due to COVID, but Wekiwa Springs is down the road so we were able to check that out!

No pets allowed either which is another downside

Well-kept and maintained, friendly staff, and nice restrooms.

Not a lot of space between campsites - you won’t get that “primitive” camping feel, but the site is a decent size

Beautiful place to camp!

Enjoyed floating down the spring and riding our bikes around the park! The bathrooms were clean. The campsites were nice and spacious for our tent!

Beauty at its Finest

Beautiful place for floating down the spring. Enjoy drifting over river pebbles at the clear bottom of the spring. Tubes can be rented right outside of park. Often busy and loud but the spring serenity makes it worth it.

Camp near Rock Springs

I was here during the winter so the park was quiet, I’ve heard it can be very busy in the summer. The campsites are big, with tree cover and provide fire rings. Rock Springs is in Kelly Park so you can walk there. We did an 8 mile paddle down to Wekiva Island, which was really relaxing.

Very nice but the spring gets crowded

Very inexpensive only 17.00 because we are senior citizens. Nice big sites with concrete patios with picnic tables. Walking distance to a huge playground over near the spring. It it’s crowded so they lock the gate when it’s full. But the campers use another gate passed the main gate when full. The kids loved it. You can bring your own tube for tubing or rent one outside of park at end of road.
