Best Cabin Camping near Chipley, FL

This campground is off the beaten path near Destin (about a 30 minute drive), but is still very convenient.  It's got all the amenities and then some. Cabin rental, ice, pool, fishing, boat dock, clean bathrooms, playground, etc.  There is a nice gas station/small store just up the road too.  It's on a dead end road, so there is little traffic.  Even saw a couple of small gators by the boat dock! Very nice place, would stay there again!

This little gem is tucked away on the central-eastern side of Alabama, just a 20 or so minute drive from the AL-GA state line, just due south of Columbia, right off the Omusee Creek. Over in these parts you’ll find some solid nature to interact with, trails to hike and of course, all the fun and enjoyment you’d expect being this close to the water. 

Let me share a bit about Family Time Campground: there’s a sweet little solar-heated pool that’s perfect for a classic sundowner (and not so great for swimming laps!), plenty of shaded and grassy areas for RV and trailers (22 spots in all), spacious long level lots in a private gated community, filtered water and free rentals, newly finished covered pavilion with about a half dozen brand new picnic tables that has a brand new BBQ, children’s playground, community firepit for s’mores and a fully functioning laundry facility. This RV site has full electrical, water and sewage hook-ups, free WiFi and there’s even a fully-stocked kitchen you can access while on site. For those that aren’t hauling their living room behind them, this property also has (3) bunk houses, (3) cabins, (4) camp rentals and even stationary RV’s for rent.

Insider’s Tip? On Sunday’s this campground offers up "all-you-can eat" pancake breakfast for $4 – you can’t beat this! Of course, there is the famed Coheelee Creek Covered Bridge that apparently people come from all over to see. For a good spot to dine out at, I recommend Log Cabin Restaurant right across the AL-GA state line in nearby Blakely – they’ve got everything you could think of fried, as well as some things that shouldn’t be fried, but taste great regardless! Last tip – if you’re out to kayak or canoe, get out either early or late, as the current during the middle of the day can be quite strong. 

Happy Camping!

Needed to find last-minute reservation and they were able to put me in a cabin only $50 a night! Very clean, very quiet and very friendly staff. Cabins are rustic but they have a full service bath house. Now goes by the name Flat Creek Family Campground

We are very partial to this park! Beautiful views of the lake. Great for primitive camping or rv/camper. They also have cabins that you can rent. Very busy during the summer months but quiet during the fall and winter.

Very nice and clean. Tent area has about 6 sites in a circle around a covered area giving each site shade, shelf, a light, electric and water. Sites have picnic table and fire ring. 6 private shower stalls, clean bathrooms, a clean pool, small playground and store. We have stayed here a few times in the tent area but they also have Rv sites and cabins.

Surrounding is beautiful and quiet with the live oak trees and creek. Off the beaten path and out of traffic but close (15-20 minute) drive to many public beaches. 45 minute drive to either Destin or PCB. Park has a pool, nice pavilion with clean bathrooms and fully equipped cabins. Cons are the price, non-functioning laundry, and too few bathrooms/showers. The “pontoon” to rent is a joke.

A private, gated road leads to level, stamped concrete pads landscaped with red lava rock around 2 lakes with great fishing either on the water or newly renovated or rebuilt piers lighted for night fishing. They have, likely, the nicest shower rooms you'll encounter on the rv trail. A well equipped camp store has everything you need to get by and some things you didn't realize you need ( hello hammock seats that I had to drop $200 on). They have townhouse cabins and glamping yurts as well as a community center, pool, and laundry room. Full hookups and Wi-Fi. Sites not located on the waterfront are elevated so they still have a water view. Since buying this resort a few years ago, the new owners have poured their hearts and souls into updating this resort into a next level haven for the new generation of the rv lifestyle.

We love this CG. Extremely convenient for the weekend get away.

We stayed here twice last year, great spot with electric hook ups, water , dump station close, camp on inland water way and short trip to beach on south side walk, or bike, has store, boat launch, bike and water sport rental, and only $25 a night!

Amazing state park on the water. The campground is modern with nice clean bathrooms, laundry machines, vending machines, park store with cart rentals and other items. The spaces are close together but great. Nice level gravel pads, full hookups including sewer, and most have fire pits and picnic table.

Torreya State Park is tucked away by itself and has a smaller campground at only 29 sites, and it's part of what makes it a great place to get away. 

Small and remote means peace and quiet. The sites aren't very private, but there aren't many and folks seem to keep to themselves. 

The bathrooms are small but decent and well-maintained, and there are 30-amp electric and water on each site. Another nice feature is a very clean laundry area. It only has one washer and dryer, but the campground is small enough that doesn't seem to be a problem. 

Nearby trails, some accessible right from the campground, also make this a good spot to use as a basecamp if you want to get out and explore some of Florida's natural beauty. Also, Gregory House is an 1850s plantation home that you can visit for a guided tour and is within walking distance of the campground.

Stayed here in one of the 3 tent only sites. Very peaceful and had bath house with shower right near sites. Pavilion also across from sites which was great when it poured rain on us. A little farther is a small spring which allows swimming the kids loved it on hot days to cool off. They also offer canoe and kayak rentals, and of course a tour of the caverns!

Stayed here with my wife and two daughters. We enjoyed the cavern tours and the hiking, but we did not take advantage of their kayak rentals during this trip.

The Good:

• Tent only sites were well isolated from the RV sites.
• The tour of the caverns was a lot of fun and very informative.
• beautiful hiking trails.
• clean bathrooms

The Bad:

• Tent only sites do not offer much privacy from your neighbor.
• bathroom leaks in the rain (very slippery floor)
• the firewood sold at the Ranger station was wet, moldy, and would hardly burn.

We loved this campground. Clean and peaceful and beautiful walking trails and easy access to the beach. Beautiful sunsets on the beach. There are also some stores on the beach with souvenirs and we saw what looked like paddle board rentals.

With taxes and fees the site came to about $42 for FHU. Good cell service.

The campground is larger than we thought it would be, and we were happy we had a site at the end of the loop because the central area was really packed and crowded.

Great free hot showers, laundry machines (2 sets, 1 at each bath house).

Deer walking around the campground and we saw dolphins in the bay.

Really enjoyed getting into this Florida gem and enjoying surrounds. Great place for a stopover in this area of Florida. Even a little rain didn't stop the fun.

Only cave in Florida where you can take a tour. I love caves and this was a great tour I was very surprised of the extent of this cave in Florida. There was some pretty good hiking trails and the campground was small but decent. There's a waterway that runs by the campground you can go kayaking.

My husband and I were pleasantly surprised at our stay at Florida Caverns State Park. Although not a huge cavern such as Carlsbad or Mammoth, Florida Caverns did not disappoint.

We found plenty to do at the park. We rode our bikes several miles on the many trails in the park and had a blast. Roots and rocks galore...but excellent mountain biking. The campsites are very nice with good bathroom facilities. The swimming hole rocks and the water is crystal clear. So much to do...mountain biking, hiking, swimming, geocaching (we found a cache), kayaking and even horseback riding.

The cave tour was nicely done and we were impressed as there are some nice formations and the trail near the cave was amazing...a short hike that will give you an idea of what a Florida swamp looks like and you can view several sink holes and alternate cave entrances (closed off of course).

Lot's of stuff if you are into horses...stalls, trails, corrals and a horse camp facility...pretty cool!

Another great place to camp for all ages...beautiful, fun and perfect for families with children.

This is "The Real Florida"

Enjoy!

This natural wonder of Florida is amazing. I highly recommend a visit and touring the caverns.

If you want to see caves in Florida. This is the place to go. Not much else to do there besides the caves.
