Visitors appreciate the spectacular night sky viewing opportunities and peaceful surroundings at these secluded glamping locations, with sites spaced far enough apart to ensure privacy while still providing amenities like fire rings, picnic tables, and water access.

ScoutSt Joseph Peninsula State Park on Cape San Blas is a great spot. We tent camped for 4 days and loved it! Bathhouse is air conditioned, sites are large and most have ample shade. Easy walk to the beach and the bay is also close for paddling and fishing! Wonderful very secluded beach and shells galore!
GuideNo complaints about this site; plenty of campsites to pick from even with about 6 other campers; space to spread out from others. Good for primitive tent camping. Had a fire pit with grill and picnic table. Right on the lake with pier access and boat ramp- pretty cool spot. Only lost a star because of previous campers leaving some trash behind.
GuideThis was a quick overnight stay for myself. I arrived a little bit after sunset and left fairly early in the morning.
Stayed at site number 18, which was Lakeside, but all campsites have decent view of lake through the trees. There is a dock and she can walk down to the water itself.
This is a very isolated place, and you have to drive down a dirt road, but very packed, which even sedans can handle no problem, unless it’s been raining that it might get a little slippery
When I stayed, it was 34° so didn’t do a whole lot but get set up in the rooftop tent and sleep. No real issues with Internet, for Verizon, but signal wasn’t super strong.
There is a toilet bathroom that is composting style, without sinks or showers.
But I booked I thought it said electrical, but after I booked, it said no electrical and when I arrived on site, there was a electrical pedestal, looked brand new, but not working. Unknown if they will soon have electricity or not ever used.
For its isolation and quietness and availability, I would definitely return. I don’t have a lot in this area to attend to, but this is a nice spot.
Star count is only down, ranked due to lack of electricity and water, as well as the slightly difficult drive in. That’s a plus for some people, but that’s how I do my star rankings.
ScoutSmall fishing camp atmosphere. Dog friendly. Kayak in the bay. Catching fish from the shore. Friendly staff. Store not stocked. No sewer hookups. Utility hookups may be on the wrong side so bring an extra long cable. And a waste wagon if you're staying for more than a few days, although the mgt will empty your tank for fee. Charter fishing within walking distance. Miles of beautiful beach with few people. Love, love. Love this place. St.. Vincent Island charter within walking distance. Bring your bike.
GuideVery small county campground. Went selected for location to bike trails and beaches. Bathhouses were mostly clean but well worn. No personal on site most of the time. Handful of long term people who are friendly.
ScoutVisited new years eve weekend and the campground was relatively quiet. The vault toilet was well stocked with toilet paper and kept clean, but there was some trash around the campground. The dock on the lake is nice and there were several people fishing. Good location for hunting the surrounding WMAs. The 3 star review is primarily due to the camping spots marked in cross ties are narrow and some spots are difficult to get a larger camper in. I would visit again.
LegendThere are 3 separate High Bluff Primitive campsites, one at Dry Bridge, one at Rake Creek and one at Pidcock Road. Each spot is so far away from each other that you feel completely secluded, which is nice. We stayed at Pidcock Rd. Even though nobody was around we still kept the dogs on leash because the spot is surrounded by water on 3 sides, and we didn't want to risk any alligator attacks.
Site wasn't totally clean but definitely not the worst we've seen. There is a fire ring, picnic table, and grill. No toilet or garbage facilities so please pack out your waste.
Road in was bumpy with some huge pits but easily navigable even in our 26ft class c, just watch the road and take it slow. There was no cell service on the roads once we entered the dense forest but the spot itself was cleared of trees enough that we got service on ATT and Verizon.
We followed the step by step directions that were in the confirmation email and not google maps' directions and we had no problems.
Site was $9/night plus tax and fees which brought it to $16.79 for the one night.
ScoutThis campground is amazing. You can walk across the street to the beach. The sunsets are beautiful! The bath house and laundry room is always spotless.
ScoutNice little CG on the bay with a good number of direct bayfront sites. Some with pine trees for shade. Clean bathrooms. Swimming pool. Small market/ general store within walking distance.
St. Marks River and Ochlockonee Bay frame Carrabelle, creating diverse camping environments from coastal to forest settings. Elevations range from sea level to only 25 feet across the region, with summer humidity levels reaching 85-90%. The area offers both primitive camping on high bluffs and luxury accommodations with Gulf views within 30 miles of downtown Carrabelle.
Fishing from piers: At High Bluff Campground, visitors can fish directly from the dedicated fishing pier. "Caught a beautiful sunset over the lake and saw a massive gator hanging out by the fishing pier. The gator was back in the morning as I was enjoying my cup of coffee out on the pier!" notes Tucker B.
Boat launching: Newport Park Campground provides direct river access. "The campground was nice and quiet. A little traffic noise but not too bad. It had a boat dock and pier to observe the St. Marks River," reports Della S. Boat ramps make it easy to explore waterways with minimal portage.
Wildlife viewing: The region's diverse ecosystems support extensive wildlife. Sebastian L. describes camping at High Bluff: "You have to love the loneliness here. On the weekend there have been three other parties with tents. From Sunday to Monday we have been the only ones. Then it becomes really lonely, dark and quiet out here."
Secluded waterfront sites: At Tate's Hell State Forest, primitive campsites offer true isolation. Laura M. shares, "There are 3 separate High Bluff Primitive campsites, one at Dry Bridge, one at Rake Creek and one at Pidcock Road. Each spot is so far away from each other that you feel completely secluded, which is nice."
Dark night skies: The low light pollution creates exceptional stargazing opportunities. "We camped at Pidcock Road Campsite #49 during the 2020 Leonid meteor shower. Nice place for dogs (req'd on leash) as no other campsites nearby. Very quiet, no water or electricity," reports Vince F.
Clean facilities: Despite the remote locations, many campgrounds maintain good facilities. At Gulf View Campground, Rhonda S. notes, "Easy to navigate, super clean and well maintained. Bathrooms are laid out super nice, clean and comfortable."
Primitive sites require preparation: Many High Bluff sites have no utilities. Sebastian L. advises, "No power, no water, no WiFi, no store. T-Mobile was very good with 300+ Mbps. The last 3 miles are dirt road, but in good condition as long as you can stay in the middle without traffic."
Road conditions vary: Forest roads can be challenging. For Tate's Hell campsites, Laura M. warns, "Road in was bumpy with some huge pits but easily navigable even in our 26ft class c, just watch the road and take it slow. There was no cell service on the roads once we entered the dense forest."
Wildlife precautions: Alligators frequent many waterways. "Caught a beautiful sunset over the lake and saw a massive gator hanging out by the fishing pier," reports Tucker B. about High Bluff, while Laura M. notes at Tate's Hell, "Even though nobody was around we still kept the dogs on leash because the spot is surrounded by water on 3 sides, and we didn't want to risk any alligator attacks."
Pet-friendly options: Many sites welcome four-legged family members. At Indian Pass Campground, September H. reports, "They are also extremely dog friendly which is a huge plus for us because our pup loves to swim. No playground but there's a park along the beach nearby in Port St Joe."
Animal interaction opportunities: For families with children, some properties offer unique experiences. The Goat House Farm provides a distinctive camping experience where Abby explains, "Where you literally camp with goats. The male goats hang out right beside you and your tents. (Be sure to keep your tents closed or they will sleep with you too, ha!) The kids absolutely loved it."
Beach access options: Waterfront camping provides built-in entertainment. Nicole C. describes Indian Pass: "Lots of regular campers that seem to know each other, all very friendly and chatty. Lots of very squirrels, they beg for food (so cute). The beach is just a few steps away."
Site sizing considerations: At T.H. Stone Memorial St. Joseph Peninsula State Park, Colin R. notes, "Florida State Parks did a great job redoing this campground after Hurricane Michael in 2018. Brand new facilities, excellent camping pads, and good beach access."
Hook-up availability: Many sites offer limited utilities. Ray & Terri F. describe their experience at Tate's Hell: "Most of the sites are water only, but there are a handful of them that also have 50A service. The roads and sites are sandy gravel. Our site had a little bit of slope side to side, but not too bad."
Connectivity concerns: Cell service varies widely. Ray & Terri F. report, "AT&T coverage was pretty dismal, with 1 bar of 5GE service and speeds only up to 0.9 MB/s. The CG has a lot of trees, but the pines only have top foliage, so access and coverage for DISH and Starlink was really good."
