    Camel Lake Campground

    Please read this review!

    We were evacuated, hurricane Milton, and found this as the last place that had a place only four of the spots have electrical. It’s very very backwards, camping, huge mosquitoes, huge bugs, alligators in the lake, bear boxes and bear meat racks, the road to it is terrible very very bumpy like driving over a river. You need to be almost in an off-road SUV vehicle to get to it and it’s 2 miles… Once you get there it’s just downright scary! The only good thing that we found out out of this is that there is an unknown RV park 10 miles down the road off of Bristol called River Landing RV park because they’re not listed on any of the pages so far we didn’t find them. But you can look them up online. I don’t know if I’ll be allowed to post their link here but if so, here it is. https://riverlandingrvpark.com/ Even the host of the other place sent us here

    River Landing RV Park

    Best RV Park I have ever been to!

    I truly believe that it is the soul of the RV Park that makes it wonderful. The owners and managers of this park are absolutely incredible. The most accommodating kindest, most friendly people I have ever run across in all of the travels I’ve done which is many and my RV! This place has not been on the map before it is new and it has only had about a month in operating at this location. I kind of accidentally ended up here when being evacuated from hurricane Milton in Clearwater and somebody else from another campground that turned out to be a bust suggested we go here because it was an unknown location. Well Joanie, the owner was packed, but she fit us in anyway she made a parking space she created a connection. She figured out how to get water to us and welcomed us with food and music. The park inside has tables and chairs and little beautiful hanging lights a big fire pit and a really nice bathhouse with laundry room… We were instantly welcomed and various churches brought over food to all the campers here who had been evacuated from their homes… the place is beautiful and clean and sits on the prettiest river the Apalachicola river. It’s pet friendly and lots of dogs and kids with a big bounce house for the kids to play on guys came over from churches with guitars and played music just a wonderful place to beif you’re on your way back down to Florida evacuating run don’t walk to this campground because there’s lots of space here that is unfilled at the moment just because she isn’t well known.

    Most beautiful sunset

    What a great place! It’s a little close together but with the very long and spacious outdoor area near the water, it makes up for it. Great staff and communication during the reservations and after.

    Carrabelle Beach RV Resort

    Relaxing on the beach

    Nice campground. Helpful staff at check-in. It has a nice pool and is on the beach. Access is across Route 98, but the traffic was minimal. There is some road noise at site#39, but it is not bad. Level site, full hooks, cable TV, and good internet speeds. Getting the RV positioned was a little tricky. While the site is long enough, the sewer connection is closer to the front of the site, so we could not park at the back. We had to be positioned to reach the sewer connection and work our rear slide around a large palm tree. Site 39 backs up to the pool and park office. At busier times, there may be a lot of people traffic, but not during our stay. Also note that there are no firepit or grills provided at the site. You must have your own grill. We enjoyed our five-night stay here. IGA grocery store in Carrabelle is the closest. Fathom’s Steam Room and Raw Bar is an old Florida open-air restaurant and bar with live music. There is a small dog park in the resort. Lots to explore in the area: Carrabelle, Eastpoint, St George Island, Lighthouse, and State Park, Tate’s Hell State Forest, Crooked River Lighthouse, or just relaxing by the pool or on the beach.

    Motorhome US Traveler

    The name of this resort is wrong in the Dyrt app. It's Carrabelle RV Resort. We stopped here for a few nights while traveling and exploring Florida. The resort was nice. Our site was #18. We could see the beach from our spot. The bathrooms were clean. Everyone there was super friendly. They had a nice size pool but I didn't use it. We found a museum .02 miles away and crooked lighthouse to explore.

    Right on the beach

    This site was great and right on the beach. It is close to the road but you’ll hardly notice. The Host was great and was very accommodating. The only negative was we had to dig up the sewer connection which is right by the water hookup.
    2 warnings the site has no shelter from the wind and a storm could damage your Rv which happened to us and bring a good rug for the outside because you’ll get sand everywhere.

    Pretty Nice & Relaxing!

    All in all, we thought it was a pretty nice campground! We stayed in a tent at site 16 which was on the edge facing Lake Talquin and had electrical hookups, a water faucet, and picnic table. There was even a light pole that could be turned off at night if desired. The campground also provided a potable water station, bathrooms, shower (a bit dated but clean), and dumpsters. There are also multiple docks, 2 with benches, and a few to tie boats or kayaks off at. All the camp sites seemed to have gravel pads…The only downfall to our particular campsite was that it butted right up to the landing parking lot and a dock which has fairly heavy traffic. But it was also nice to see an FWC officer make their rounds one of the nights we stayed. Another downside was that the dumpster close by was emptied by a garbage truck at 5am Tuesday morning which wasn’t the best alarm clock. What was a nice alarm clock was the camp rooster that had been there a few years and drops by to say hello each day. We scoped out other sites for when we return!

    Nice and Quiet

    I stayed two nights June 26-27 2019. The campground is very nice, small and quiet. The staff came around to check on us but was not a bother. The bathrooms are clean, running hot and cold water and paper. The bugs were bad even though we used spray and candles. It is a great quiet campground. Better in the cooler months.

    Beautiful beach stay but could use some improvements

    Pros: -Right on the water, 1 minute walk to the beach. We could see the water from our site A1 -quiet and remote area with fewer people than surrounding 30A areas -close to Cape San Blas and Port St Joe to explore -clean bathrooms and showers

    Cons:

    • our site was difficult to back into down a small hill and not very level.
    • there are large trees and they could do some branch trimming. Our rig is 32 feet and was rubbing on branches when trying to exit.

    Tate's Hell State Forest High Bluff Primitive Campsites, FL

    Nice, quiet, well maintained, friendly, wooded CG

    We have a 36 ft Class A with a Cherokee Trailhawk tow and stayed in site 64 for 4 days in mid April. This is a relatively small CG, with~15 wooded sites that are reasonably spaced. The CG is very clean, recently renovated, well maintained and relatively inexpensive. 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. There aren’t any hiking trails leading from the CG, but there are others in the area. There are no lights in the CG except the two on the bathhouse, which are unnecessarily as bright as the Sun

    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. Starlink was able to get speeds up to 20 MB/s with few if any dropouts. No CG WiFi.

    Fabulous view

    Stayed here last year and fell in love with the park! Woke up every morning to a gorgeous view of the water. Owners are sweet people and very proud of their park.

    Small but quiet

    Only seven camp sites all of them next to one another. River runs along the border of the camp there is a boat launch.

    High Bluff - Joe Budd WMA and Lake Talquin State Forest

    Quiet and peaceful, if no one is there.

    Mixed feelings about this campground.  It has too many sites too close together, but if few people  are there it is peaceful.  We stayed on a weeknight.  Several people used the boat ramp, but only one other camper. So the night was quiet.  I could see how it could be well used for day picnics and fishing and could become quite noisy. The boat ramp is separated from the camp a bit, and it was not noisy.

    Not much view of lake from sites, but the lake is pretty from the fishing pier and boat launch.  A bit of trash in some sites but not too bad.  I'm guessing someone does not come and check on this site every day.  We were in a van and did not try the pit toilets.

    It is about 3 miles from the main road, one mile of speed bumps, two of dirt, but it is level and well packed.

    Remote and quaint

    Somewhat isolated, but Saint Joe is not far away. Everything you need is pretty much on site. Great place for kayaking, surf fishing, and there’s a boat ramp right next-door. Beautiful scenery, and well almost always full, it’s not a large campground, and you have some privacy. 3 miles down. The road is a nice oyster bar. The camp office sells frozen bait. Verizon service is excellent.

    Ochlockonee River State Park

    Peaceful and small park

    I live near Ochlockonee River SP and I really enjoy it for day use and camping. Camp sites are indeed close and some sites might be hard for trailers, campers, or RVs but I have no problems with my SUV and tent. Is it miserable in April - September? I wouldn’t know because I stay far away from forests in the Florida summer! You will certainly experience mosquitoes and deer flies if you do go in the warmer months, which isn’t the park’s fault but be warned. I love the Ochlockonee River - it’s very serene. There is a boat ramp and fishing spots as well as a campfire circle, benches along trails, and places to walk along the river. The flatwoods trail is often very wet and you may need at least knee-high boots to get through it. I usually bring tall water boots everywhere but I can see how it’d be disappointing if you didn’t have any on you and couldn’t hike far! There are indeed white squirrels and deer, and lots of deer in general! Bathrooms were pretty clean and everything was functional. They also have a little library with books to read! They have a dumpster and dump station for holding tanks. I had good phone and LTE service as a Verizon user. Sopchoppy is indeed basically non-existent. It has gas but come prepared with other essentials. No major complaints about the park other than it’s a little small! Love it though!

    Wildlife, boat access and scenery

    Nice boat ramp and fantastic scenery on the river. Check your site size to ensure your vehicle will fit because they are all different. Otherwise, really nice park. Lots of wildlife, hot showers, beautiful trail along the river with convenient access behind most sites or via campfire circle for all. Very quiet.

    Great Campground!

    We stayed 2/5/24-2/9/24. The camp host were very nice and accommodating. The campground itself is very clean and quiet. Bathroom and showers are some of the cleanest I’ve ever been in at a campground. If you looking for a peaceful get away on the lake this is your place!

    Fantastic spot

    This spot was plenty big for our 40’ Class A and toad. RIGHT ON THE BEACH! You do get some road noice, but to us being right on the beach offset that. It has full hookups, picnic table and fire pit. We will definitely try to come back as we love Cape San Blas.

    Nice stopover spot

    Small, out of the way Fl state park. I’m guessing maybe 35 sites. A few concrete pads but most were dirt. Good level spots with electric and water. Sites are close but heavy vegetation gives the feeling of privacy. Decent trails to get the dogs out for exercise. Clean bathrooms and hot showers. The great part about this park was that it was incredibly quiet and peaceful. Only stayed one night. There is a lake with a boat launch so I would assume fishing is an option. Enjoyed the stopover here.

    RV by the Sea

    Literally right on the beach

    Small site. There are two hookups there, so if you have a neighbor it’ll be a little tight. However, you’re so close to the beach, that white noise from the ocean will give you plenty of privacy.

    We stayed in November so it was cool. But still great. We slept with the windows open. It was glorious.

    The dogs had a great time chasing crabs on the beach and my daughters were able to find several perfect sea shells.

    We had an amazing time. Cape San Blas is secluded. You’re about 10 miles from a grocery store and restaurants (we planned meals). But there is a general store that is surprisingly well stocked. It doesn’t have everything, but it’s got the things you might need to fill out any missing staples from your pantry.

    We loved it. Will stay again.

    Very quiet and peaceful.

    A beautiful little park with a nice children’s playground. Boardwalk, trail, clean bathrooms, secure showers with passcode given to campers only. Security gate that closes at night. Very friendly and helpful staff. Verizon 2 bars, Starlink 20 to 114 Mpbs with cloudy skies, which allows me to get my work done.  It rained about 50% of the time I was there with temps dropping into the 30-40s at night.

    We had a great stay

    We stayed here recently while visiting the US from the UK. When we arrived the host was really welcoming. I can’t remember the site number we originally booked but he offered alternatives that were also available if we wanted to change it. It’s such a lovely setting, we sat on the fishing dock until the mozzies spotted us and watched a gator chilling out on the lake. The sites are well looked after and the showers were decent. We would definitely visit again if we were in the area.
