Best Campgrounds near Bryceville, FL

There’s very few SPs in Florida that will put you right on or near the ocean as Little Talbot Island SP does. And to be clear, this CG isn’t RIGHT on the beach, but you’ll just have to cross the street, after hiking or biking 100 yards from the campground, to reach the amazing white caps here. As my post from 2½ years ago provided quite a bit of detail on this campground, I’m following up on that review by sharing more fotos as well as providing a topline update:

Highlights: (1) Very quick access to the Atlantic Ocean – and the beaches here are not crowded and incredibly well-maintained - some of the cleanest I've ever encountered; (2) Solid peace & quiet surrounded by ancient live oaks just dripping with Spanish moss; (3) Amazing kite-surfing just due south of here at Huguenot Memorial Park; (4) The SP Rangers are incredibly friendly, helpful and very professional; (5) Approximately 4 miles of excellent paved biking / walking on the Timucuan Trail that runs parallel to A1A; (6) For anyone wanting to take iconic photos next to the ocean, go check out Boneyard Beach that has hundreds of salt-washed skeletons of live Oak, Cypress and Cedar trees; (7) Call upon Kayak Amelia for a guided tour of the estuaries; (8) Key-coded security gate provides solid safety, especially being located right next to A1A, where the opportunity for random, wandering visitors exist; (9) Bring your own kayak and canoe as there are access points to launch from right near the campground; and (10) Should you want to ‘get off the reservation’ you just need to head north to Amelia Island where you’ll have no shortage of AMAZING restaurants to choose from and there’s also a well-appointed Harris Teeter that has wood and ice for sale as well as just about anything you might need to stock up on

Lowlights: (1) While functional and fairly clean, the restroom and shower facilities are in dire need of refurbishment; (2) The sites are fairly unlevel with roots from the ancient and live Oaks popping up here and there making it very difficult to find a decent level patch of ground to set up camp; (3) Some of the sites have dips and depressions in them, making those particular areas prone for flooding – which happened to us; and (4) Mosquitos, midges and bugs exist here in swarms that never go away … so bring your repellent as well as smoke fogger machine!

Happy Camping!

As you’re heading either north or south up or down I-95, just a smidge north of the FL-GA state line, you’ll need to have your eyes peeled or GPS set in order to find Huck’s RV Park. Whether you are merely stopping here for an overnight lay-up or using this particular location to access the greater Kingsland and St. Marys area, Huck’s is a great spot for you to consider, especially given the price point, which seems incredibly fair given the location, amenities and local surroundings.

With regards to the campground itself, there’s really level grass spots throughout the park with concrete patios provided alongside each slip. The slots themselves are decent sized and while some areas feel a bit closer together than others, overall we felt like each site was fairly spacious all while being completely surrounded by a rather thick forested perimeter that blots out both traffic noise and visuals. The lot itself is about the entire size of a single football field with 2 lanes that dissect the otherwise open field with 4 angled back-in and 39 pull-through slots offering room for RVs from 40’ to 65’ lengths. The entire park features freshly poured asphalt driving paths, so despite being out in the woods, you’ll appreciate a bit of modern convenience.

From an amenities standpoint, Huck’s packs a decent punch with spectacularly clean – dare I say brand, spanking new – restroom and shower facilities located smack dab right in the middle of the RV park. You’ll also find a very nice recreation room complete with a dart board, juke box, widescreen TVs, ATM, WiFi, community library and billiards table as well as an on-site laundry room and even a small fenced doggie park for your K9 friends. Of course, there’s the standard FHUs complete with 30 / 50 amp electric, water and sewage. Very noteworthy is a makeshift pub and restaurant on-site offering drafts, canned & bottled beer as well as wine along with some light food fare such as wings and sandwiches. You’ll also discover a small market perfect for picking up any RV supplies.

Insider’s Tips? Here’s a few: (1) IMHO the best sites (#33-#43) are those located furthest north on the edge of the park’s perimeter, which will set you furthest away from the frontage road as well as the hustling & bustling highway you just escaped from; (2) If you need to load up on anything more substantial than what might be provided here, there’s a Dollar General Store, BP and Circle K truck stop just across the street from Huck’s, but for anything more substantial than this, you’ll need to head due south to Kingsland;  (3) Unlike most spots that sit a stone’s throw distance form I-95, nearby you’ll find a handful of local restaurants like Doo Dad’s, Bird Boxx, Karv Bistro, Steffans Diner and Bogey’s Bar & Grille for some very decent down-home Southern cooking; and (4) If you’re a tent camper, you won’t find a home here at Huck’s, but luckily, if you are looking for a spot, just a 20 minute drive east from here is Crooked River SP, which is arguably one of the best SPs in all of the Peach State!

Happy Camping!

This was our favorite campground to spend the winter months until new owner and managers took over in 2023. Jon has anger issues and no respectful communication skills. If he doesn’t like you, he trumps up an excuse to evict you. We have seen this many times. It’s like walking on egg shells all winter. Jon and Vickie are not consistent on their new rules, which change all the time. And, they don’t follow through with new improvements. They advertise a heated pool. However, it was inoperable one whole winter season with them saying,“it will be fixed in a few days”. The following winter season it worked but was not warm when it was getting nice to swim. The workers have no respect for campers and their personal property when they are mowing or blowing leaves. Snowbirds can no longer secure a reservation on their preferred site for the following season upon departure. Now we are put on a waiting list until November with the hopes we’ll get a phone call saying our preferred site is available. November is too late in the season to try to secure a site at another campground in the event a space isn’t available. How is this a respectable way to treat loyal, recurring snowbirds?!?! This new policy has caused them to lose multiple recurring guests. Sadly, a former beautifully maintained and friendly campground in a nice town is going downhill fast. Too bad there isn’t an option for negative star ratings.
