Best Campgrounds near Inglis, FL

CAMPER SUMMARY PRESENTED BYFord

Campgrounds near Inglis, Florida include a mix of developed RV parks, cabin accommodations, and limited tent camping options along the Gulf Coast and inland waterways. Facilities like Gulf Coast RV Resort and B's Marina & Campground offer full hookup sites for recreational vehicles, while several properties such as Encore Crystal Isles and Nature's Resort include cabin rentals. Most established campgrounds in the area provide water and electric connections, with many offering sewer hookups as well. The region features multiple camping options along waterways including the Rainbow River, Crystal River, and Lake Rousseau, providing opportunities for boating and fishing.

Access to campgrounds remains consistent year-round as Florida's climate supports camping in all seasons. Most developed campgrounds in the area maintain paved or gravel roads suitable for large RVs, with several parks specifically advertising as big-rig friendly. "The park is centrally located to many of the attractions including Weeki Wachee, Silver Springs, Homosassa State Park and others," noted one camper about Quail Roost RV Park. Travelers should be aware that flooding can occasionally impact the region, as one reviewer mentioned experiencing a "50 year flood" during their stay, which limited access to surrounding areas. Reservation systems typically operate year-round, though availability may be more limited during winter months when seasonal visitors are more prevalent.

Waterfront camping represents a significant draw for the Inglis area, with multiple RV parks and campgrounds offering river or gulf access. Campers frequently mention fishing, boating, and manatee viewing as primary activities. Several visitors specifically noted the proximity to water as a deciding factor in their camping choices. One review highlighted that B's Marina & Campground is "2.5 scenic miles from the gulf. If you have a boat, this place is perfect." Campground amenities vary considerably across properties, with most offering basic facilities such as restrooms and trash collection, while higher-rated locations provide additional features like swimming pools, clubhouses, and organized activities. Review data suggests many campgrounds in the region host a mix of short-term campers and long-term or seasonal residents, creating varied camping experiences depending on the selected property.

    Cypress Glen Campground

    Thanksgiving Week Family Camping

    This is a great campground for getting away and getting outdoors. The campground is very well kept and clean. It is very quiet and secluded. You can hear the hum of the interstate when outside, but it is not noticeable inside the camper. There are plenty of hiking trails and you can ride a bike for miles on the paved withlacoochee state trail which is accessible just across the street from the campground entrance. You also have access to silver lake as well as crooked river. Would highly recommend this campground.

    Mutual Mine Youth Group Campground — Withlacoochee State Forest

    Simple and quiet

    We love this campground because it’s so close to home. It’s clean quiet with large sites. You can hear traffic but cannot see the road. Some sites more secluded than others but all are good size. Clean bathrooms and property.

    Serenova Tract Campsites

    Beautiful park

    The campground is nestled in a canopy of oaks ,pines with palmetto underbrush. It was packed when I arrived. But I found the ideal site around the Pavillion circle. It was nice to have neighbors after being alone for so long. My site doesn't have a fire ring, but a picnic table. Toilets and water not far away. Excellent trails to hike.

    Arrowhead Campsites & Mobile Home Park

    Budget-Friendly Stay Just Off I-75 in the Horse Capital of the World

    Sitting quietly just off I-75, Arrowhead Campsites & Mobile Home Park in Ocala, Florida is located on one of the busiest thoroughfares that runs through Ocala. This place is a no frills, straightforward, budget-friendly campground where grass pads, shady trees and neighborly vibes create a cozy Old-Florida atmosphere. First impressions? This isn’t a resort, but while there is a community pool (that wasn’t working when we stopped by and TBH was incredibly cringe-worthy), it’s a practical, easygoing basecamp that gives you everything you need while keeping you close to Ocala’s natural gems ... as long as you manage your expectations before arriving here.

    Facilities are simple but sufficient (unless they aren't working at all). There are around 100 sites with full hookups (30 / 50 amp electric, water, sewer), most on grass with decent leveling. Guests have access to free Wi-Fi, cable TV, mediocre bathrooms and subpar showers, a laundry facility, picnic tables and a recreation room. Long-term residents mix with short-stay campers, so expect a lived-in, welcoming feel. The campground also features a dining hall and small community events, adding a sense of 'cringy neighborhood' to your stay.

    Ocala itself is the star attraction nearby. Known as the ‘Horse Capital of the World,’ you’re just minutes away from equestrian centers, rolling farms and the glass-clear waters of Silver Springs State Park. The Ocala National Forest offers endless hiking, kayaking and wildlife watching, while downtown Ocala brings restaurants, art galleries and Southern charm.

    Insider Tips? Here’s a smathering: (1) IMHO the best sites are the ones with grass pads near the front loops for the easiest pull-in and better spacing, especially if you’re arriving late, which is convenient as well for those that want to make an early, discreet and trouble-free exit in the morning; (2) Should you need to stock up on anything, there’s a Walmart Supercenter, Publix, Home Depot and Lowe’s all within a 10-minute drive; (3) A nearby hidden ‘easter egg’ you’ll want to explore are the lesser-visited trails at Silver Springs State Park where you’ll find quiet boardwalks and an historic pioneer village that many tourists (and even local residents) miss; (4) If you’ve come with your kayak, a great place to launch is at Silver Springs State Park where you can paddle down the Silver River. Expect to see turtles, manatees and wild rhesus (not Reese's, but sounds the same) monkeys that somehow call the riverbank home; (5) Because there are long-term residents here at Arrowhead, it’s best to request a short-term site closer to the entrance for less foot traffic and quieter evenings; and (6) When you get tired of conjuring up that next meal from the depths of your Cordova roto-molded cooler, then check on some local joints like Big Lee’s Serious About BBQ for its nationally acclaimed BBQ brisket, ribs, and sides or Ivy on the Square with its upscale comfort food in a historic downtown building and there’s also Latinos y Mas serving up fusion Latin classics with Mediterranean touches.

    Happy Camping!

    Belle Parc RV Resort

    Belle parc is a very relaxing campground

    So check in was easy and the ladies at the front office where amazing and very hospitable. We were shown to our campsite by a very nice gentleman. He even helped us back in and hook up. As for the stay it’s been very relaxing and quiet. The shower houses are awesome. We backed up to one of the lakeside areas where the fishing was excellent. We were Also located next to a pool and it was very clean with limited activity from other guest. Would definitely recommend to stay again.

    Sundance Lakes RV Resort

    They don't care about their residents!

    I lived in this park full-time for 2½ years when Hurricane Helene submerged it under 3½ feet of water. The damage left the park without power for months, forcing us to move out and causing tremendous expenses. During that time, the park made no effort to assist or support the residents in any way. 

    When I applied for FEMA assistance, I was told I needed a simple letter from the park confirming the extended power outage. They refused to provide it, even though it would have cost them nothing and could have helped residents like me recover some of our losses. 

    Instead of showing compassion or accountability, they chose to do nothing. The staff at this park are unprofessional, unhelpful, and unwilling to take responsibility. It was a deeply disappointing experience, and I would never recommend living here.


Guide to Inglis

Camping near Inglis, Florida provides access to both Gulf Coast waters and inland waterways with crystal clear springs. River access points are common features at many campgrounds in the area, with the Homosassa, Withlacoochee, and Rainbow Rivers all within a short drive of Inglis. Winter temperatures typically stay between 50-70°F, making the region suitable for year-round camping.

What to do

Tubing on Rainbow River: Rainbow Springs State Park Campground offers tubing experiences down the crystal clear river. "Great time. Relaxing day tubing down the river," notes one visitor. Tubing season opens April 1st each year, so plan accordingly if this activity is on your list.

Kayaking with manatees: Nature's Resort in Homosassa connects directly to wildlife viewing opportunities. "We did a manatee tour and they picked us up right at the dock. This was helpful since we didn't have a car with us," explains one camper who enjoyed the convenience of on-site boat pickup.

Pontoon boat rentals: Encore Crystal Isles provides water access for boating enthusiasts. "Pontoon boat rentals. Close to Three Sisters Springs where you can kayak with the Manatees," shares one reviewer who found the location ideal for water activities.

What campers like

River proximity: B's Marina & Campground offers direct river access that campers value. "This campground is different than the rest. 2.5 scenic miles from the gulf. If you have a boat, this place is perfect," explains a visitor who appreciated the waterfront location.

Clean facilities: Rainbow Springs State Park Campground maintains well-kept grounds and amenities. "Bathrooms are two single stall/shower combos, but never too crowded. Campground is good for paddling," notes a tent camper who stayed in the walk-in sites.

Swimming options: Natural water features provide alternatives to typical pool amenities. "Beautiful 72° springfed river. Take a 4hour tube ride down a crystal clear spring fed river. Full of wildlife, fun, families, snorkeling," shares one visitor about Rainbow Springs.

What you should know

Seasonal popularity impacts availability: Competition for sites can be challenging during winter months. "Love this campground though it can be hard to get in between the snowbirds and tubing season," mentions one camper about Rainbow Springs State Park Campground.

Site placement considerations: Rock Crusher Canyon RV Park requires careful site selection. "When making reservations make sure to book towards the center of the park. We were in site 129A. The road noise was constant and loud," advises one camper who learned this through experience.

Weather impacts: Seasonal flooding can affect accessibility. "We came when the area was experiencing a 50 year flood, so access to most of the area was greatly hindered," reports a visitor to Lake Rousseau RV Park, highlighting the importance of checking conditions before arrival.

Tips for camping with families

Kid-friendly amenities: Nature's Resort offers multiple family activities. "Lots to do for kids here. Facebook page for campground tells you what the little bar/restaurant is serving. We went for pizza night (frozen, but priced right and I didn't have to cook!)," shares a parent who appreciated the convenience.

Swimming and snorkeling opportunities: Rainbow Springs offers clear waters perfect for family water activities. "Full hookups. Great for kayaking, swimming and snorkeling! Kids have a lot of fun!" explains one family who enjoyed the natural water features.

Private site selection: Finding secluded spots can improve the family camping experience. "If you're tent camping in the tent-only walk-in sites, site 60 is definitely the most private (farthest from the lot but still a short walk in on a paved path)," suggests a camper who stayed at Rainbow Springs State Park.

Tips from RVers

Site spacing varies significantly: Gulf Coast RV Resort offers more comfortable spacing than some nearby alternatives. "This is a real gem of a place to stay. Very very quiet. The price is amazing. Sites are very level," notes an RVer who appreciated the park's layout and value.

Full hookup availability: Most Inglis area campgrounds provide complete services. "FHU, site mostly level, at entrance of the park. Lots of long term residents, everyone was pleasant! Nice dog park!" reports a camper who made a last-minute booking at Gulf Coast RV Resort.

Gate access planning: Some parks require entrance codes. "Make sure to have your gate code at the ready, the gate is unmanned, and it's right off the main road as soon as you turn in. There is only room for one Rv/travel trailer between the gate and the road," advises a visitor to Rainbow Springs State Park Campground.
