At Old Florida RV Resort (formerly Water's Edge), RVers find 34 full-hookup sites positioned on a single loop with diagonal pull-through sites in the center and back-in spots along the exterior perimeter. Most sites include freshly paved patios with picnic tables. "Great location, simple, clean, safe, good people. A mix of long term and short term with a nice fire circle and clubhouse with bathrooms and showers."

For travelers planning routes through the region, many parks maintain year-round availability, though winter months see significantly higher occupancy rates requiring advance reservations. Cell service varies considerably across the area, with most reviews noting 1-2 bars on major carriers. Dump stations are available at several parks including Sun Outdoors St. Augustine and Ocala Sun RV Resort, both within 30 miles of Fort Mccoy. Pet policies are generally accommodating, with designated dog parks at the larger resorts, though weight and breed restrictions may apply. Based on reviews from The Dyrt, roads leading to most RV parks in the area are well-maintained and accessible for larger rigs, though some parks like Cherry Blossom RV Resort feature narrower interior roads with rolling hills that require careful navigation. Propane refill services can be found at select locations including Grand Lake RV Resort and Rock Crusher Canyon RV Park.

Lake Griffin State Park Campground
This was the first park we stayed in once we got our new camper. I have an old truck that has not pulled something like this before so we wanted to be somewhat close to home. The park staff were great, the facilities were great. It is a smaller park, and close to the road. It didn’t bother us, but I imagine it could bother a tent camper. There was a family reunion or something going on the weekend we were there so it was packed and a little noisy outside of the camper. But everyone was very nice. There are some shorter hikes and the second oldest live oak in the state. I think if we had not forgotten our life vests at home I would have more to say about the paddling option, but you can also fish. We would go back.

Sandhill Campground - Mike Roess Gold Head Branch State Park
My husband and I went here for a long weekend, it was a really nice park we saw a lot of deer. There is 4+ miles of the Florida State Trail that runs through this park that we hiked. The terrain changes multiple times giving you a nice change in scenery. There is a ravine there too. The staff was great, and the facilities were clean. You can buy patches there too if you like to collect patches (or stickers) from the State Parks. And if you have the Florida State Park passport they have a stamp. It’s a good sized park and kept us busy.

Countryside RV Park
Wild West Meets Old Florida
This Old Florida location has a Western bent to the place with the covered wagon motif and ranch-styled main office with what looks to be a horse tie up on the porch, so whatever the theme might be, this RV enclave is a good stretch away from the I75 highway that you moseyed onto in to find this 55+ retirement one lane (OK, there’s a simple loop) cowboy retirement OK corral. You’ll access Countryside RV Park via Country Rd 489 just off of Route 470 and if you blink (you know, because of all that dust blowing off the prairie), you’d miss the turn-off, so keep your eyes peeled, pardner, and about 20 yards into the property, you’ll swing by the office on what looks to be freshly laid, small single vehicle lanes and check in with the sheriff (er, the RV manager), who will direct you to your humble piece of very flat land, which no doubt will be draped in shade provided by the scattered ancient and live oaks that are sweating Spanish moss creating a very (trust me) un-wild, wild west vibe.

There’s some basic amenities here in addition to the standard pull-through parking pads and FHUs offering 20 / 30 / 50 amp electric, water and sewage, including: sanitary dump, impeccably clean his / her restrooms and shower facilities, picnic tables, WiFi, cable TV, coin-operated laundry, horseshoes, side X side shuffle boards that are in pristine condition, recreation room with billiards, dog park, fire pit, retention pond, on-site storage, exercise equipment and gym. There’s even a proper mail room in case you plan on staying long enough that you need to receive mail here or have it forwarded (beats waiting for the Pony Express to arrive). Due to this being a semi- or full-retirement zone, Countryside offers additional diversions and activities like bingo, Karaoke, bowling, arts & crafts as well as Bible study, in addition to learning how to lasso your very own steer (OK, I made up this last one).

Insider’s tips? Here’s a few: (1) If your ID or social security card doesn’t clearly state that you are 55+ you won’t have any luck at this hideout; (2) If you do manage to stay here, IMHO the best spots are those either on the western - but of course - side of this depot (#6 – 22) or eastern (#46–#59) perimeters; (3) Should you need to load up on anything while here, there’s not much nearby apart from a Dollar General and Kal’s Food Grocery, but if you don’t mind driving slightly further afield, there’s a Publix NE of here and a Winn-Dixie and Walmart due south of here towards Bushnell; and (4) In the event that you’d like to grab some local grub, there’s Big Apple Café and a Subway nearby in the small town here, or up on Lake Panasoffkee there’s Big Bass Grill Lakefront Restaurant & Marina, which I highly recommend.

Happy Camping!

Boogerville Hideout
Biker Bar Meets RV Layover
Pulling into Boogerville Hideout right off US 17 feels less like arriving at a campground and more like rolling into a full-on Roadhouse movie sequel where you’d expect Jake Gyllehnhaal (nee Patrick Swayze) to be bouncing at the front door. Upon entry, you might hear the rumble of bikes, the glow of string lights and the pulse of a live music set the tone before you even park. Located just south of Green Cove Springs, this biker bar and restaurant has recently carved out roughly a dozen RV slots behind and surrounding the property, creating a unique overnight option that blends convenience with a high-energy, social atmosphere. The setting is open and informal, with gravel and packed dirt surfaces, easy pull-in access and a layout that wraps around the main bar, stage and outdoor beer garden patio area.

The RV sites themselves offer basic hookups, making it functional for a quick overnight, but amenities beyond that are minimal. There are no traditional bathhouses, no playgrounds and no campground-style comforts, just port-a-potties that are shared with patrons of the bar. The vibe here is unapologetically lively, especially on weekends when live bands, karaoke, and DJs turn the outdoor beer garden into something closer to a small festival than a campground. Navigation is simple enough, and setup is quick, but this is clearly not designed for quiet evenings, early bedtimes and families with small kids - trust me - would not want to ‘drop anchor’ here for sure.

Surrounding the property, you are positioned along US 17 with quick access into Green Cove Springs for supplies, where you will find grocery options like Dollar Tree and El Supremo, gas stations like BP and casual dining spots like The Pub @ Magnolia Point, Roger That Wings & Things. If you are looking to balance the energy of Boogerville with a bit of calm, nearby parks and the St. Johns River offer opportunities to reset during the day before returning to the action at night.

Insider’s tips? Here’s a handful: (1) Choose a site as far from the stage and US 17 as possible if you plan to turn in early, as music can run late on weekends; (2) Expect noise, this is part of the experience, not a drawback to be avoided; (3) Bring earplugs if you are a light sleeper; (4) Plan to use your own onboard facilities if possible, as port-a-potties are shared and can get busy (and somewhat messy, particular closer to midnight on the weekends); (5) This is best treated as an overnight stop tied to enjoying the bar and music rather than a traditional campground stay; (6) If you are looking for any great grub in the vicinity, you’ve just hit the BBQ jackpot as less than a 20 minute drive from here, you’ll discover the legendary Woodpeckers Backyard BBQ that will be – without any contention – the greatest spot for smoked grub you will find IN THE STATE OF FLORIDA (yeah, I know, that's a big statement - so prove me wrong); and (7) If you’ve had 1 or 2 too many, you want to be incredibly careful and not try your luck up or down US 17 as this stretch of pavement is continuously patrolled by Florida’s finest, which is just yet another reason you should consider laying up for the night here @ Boogerville Hideout.

Happy Camping!

Silver Springs State Park Campground
All amenities on site
Sites have full hookups which is awesome for a state park. Also picnic tables, grills and a fire pit. The sites are big and relatively private. To visit the spring you can hike or drive. Being you camping receipt to get in free. Glass bottom boat tour is $15 for adults but there is a nice walking path and you can see manatees in the spring from the shore. The restaurant was nice, good pizza!

Lake Point 55+ RV Park
Restrictions
Exercise caution with this reservation. The website says pet friendly but only after you reserve the site do they make you aware of pet size limit and breed restrictions. And your reservation is not refundable.

Lake Dorr Dispersed
Lake Dorr Dispersed Camping
Spent two nights here again. Sept. 27th and 28th. During the day time there were a lot of Love Bugs. My camping kitty loved chasing them. At night or at sun down I was bombarded with bugs. Even if I tried to attract them to a higher light and I was in the dark, didn't help. So this time of the year, sunset = go inside.

Also, the description above is wrong.

This dispersed camping area within Ocala National Forest DOES NOT provide water hookups, restrooms, and picnic tables along with standard amenities like trash service and campfire permissions.

The campground DOES NOT maintain water availability throughout the site and DOES NOT HAVE ANY clean restroom facilities.

Other than that, I will be back.

Guide to Fort Mccoy

Fort Mccoy sits in north-central Florida amid a mix of freshwater lakes, pine forests, and oak hammocks at approximately 75 feet above sea level. The area experiences humid subtropical weather with summer temperatures regularly reaching the 90s and mild winters typically above 50°F. Cell service varies by carrier throughout the region, with AT&T showing stronger coverage than other networks at most campgrounds.

What to do

Fishing and boating access: Grand Lake RV & Golf Resort offers direct lake access with dock facilities. "Fishing permitted off dock and from shore. All roads were paved. There are both RVs and vacation rentals," notes Ashley W. The resort provides excellent water recreation opportunities on Orange Lake.

Golf opportunities: Several RV parks near Fort Mccoy feature golf amenities for visitors wanting to spend time on the links. "There is a full 18 course golf course and putting green. There are also onsite golf cart rentals and a golf pro shop," according to reviews at Grand Lake RV & Golf Resort.

Winter wildlife viewing: The region around Fort Mccoy serves as winter habitat for many bird species and occasional manatees in nearby springs. Runaway Bay Lodge offers a premium viewing experience where guests can "hang out in the hot tub while looking at the lake" to spot wildlife, according to reviewer Ashley F.

What campers like

Community atmosphere: Citra Royal Palm RV Park receives high marks for its welcoming environment. "Great location, simple, clean, safe, good people. Tents, vans, skoolies, pop ups, rvs/motorhomes. A mix of long term and short term," reports reviewer citra R., highlighting the diverse camping community.

Quality amenities: RV parks in the Fort Mccoy area maintain well-kept facilities. At Ocala North RV Park, campers appreciate the "new heated saline pool" and note that "staff is very attentive" and there's a "great pool and fitness center," according to reviewer "Name."

Seasonal events: Winter visitors particularly enjoy the organized activities at rv campgrounds near Fort Mccoy. "Food trucks come in, their facilities are nice and kept up as is the campground," notes Thomas H. about Wild Frontier RV Resort, which also features regular activities like bingo nights.

What you should know

Campsite variations: Sites at Fort Mccoy area RV parks range from basic to premium. At Old Florida RV Resort, "34 FHU (30/50 amp electric, water and sewage) slots dot a small, simple single loop" with "diagonal pull-through sites in the center and back-in spots along the exterior perimeter," according to Stuart K.

Reservation timing: Summer allows for more flexibility, but winter months require advance planning. "Stopped here as we needed a place to camp after having an RV repair and didn't have reservation anywhere (FL campgrounds are jam packed)," notes Michael M. about Ocala Sun RV Resort.

Rules and regulations: Each park maintains specific policies about pets, fires, and camping types. Wild Frontier RV Resort has "no on ground fire but covered fires pits can be used" and some parks have age restrictions where "no children allowed more than a week stay," according to reviewer KASKEN.

Tips for camping with families

Pool options: Many parks offer swimming facilities with varying seasonal availability. Carey R. reports about Wild Frontier RV Resort: "Our kids enjoyed the exceptionally clean pool. And the bathrooms were spotless."

Recreation activities: Look for parks with organized events and amenities for various ages. Compass RV Park has "lots of things for kids to do at the campground (pool, playground, cornhole, ping pong table, fishing pond, etc)," according to Daniel G.

Location considerations: Some parks cater more to adults than families. One reviewer notes about Wild Frontier RV Resort: "It's definitely catered more to the Senior crowd (they had Bingo the night we were there & there seemed to be regular activities-Bible Study, etc)."

Tips from RVers

Late arrival procedures: Many Fort Mccoy area campgrounds accommodate after-hours check-ins. Steven A. explains that at Ocala Sun RV Resort, "We pulled in after hours without a reservation. The set up was nice. The site had a box at the front for both reservation arrivals and non reservation arrivals."

Site surfaces: RV sites vary from paved to grass throughout the region. "Sites are very close together and pricey," notes reviewer T S. about Grand Lake RV & Golf Resort, while others mention "freshly paved patios" at different parks.

WiFi reliability: Internet access varies significantly between parks. "The cell service (for both T-Mobile and Verizon) didn't work very well, and the Wi-Fi is iffy at best," according to Daniel G. at Compass RV Park, while others report strong connectivity at different locations.
