The Best Pet-Friendly Camping Near Lakeside, Florida

Enjoy the tranquil countryside and park your rig in the middle of the vast farmland of the “Potato Capital of Florida”. Enjoy a playful horse pasture and the shady trees while still only 16 miles to the closest beach. You are a few minute walk to our house but very much in a private space. The driveway is off of the main road and you do need to back in. Once you back on the drive you are welcome to park anywhere between the ditch and the fence. There is probably just under .5 acres just for you. Please stay within that area and do not cross the fences or go into the farm fields.

St. Johns River Water Management District lands are natural, wild and scenic places. While camping on district lands, you may have an opportunity to see various wildlife, sit under the stars, listen to a soft evening breeze rustling tree leaves and experience Florida much as some of the earliest settlers did.

However, be prepared to rough it. Only primitive tent camping is allowed on district lands and only at designated locations. No travel trailers, campers or RVs are allowed. Most properties offer no amenities such as rentals, restrooms, potable water or shelters.

Many of the campsites are in remote areas and can be reached only by hiking, bicycling, boating or horseback riding.

Campers should use the designated campfire rings for fires and should carry out all garbage with them when they leave. Check the notices section of this website for updates on any current burn bans.

First come/first serve and reservable camping sites are available at most district properties.

Reservable campsites require a reservation and permit from the district. Campers must make a reservation at least 24 hours in advance.

All camping is limited to a maximum of seven days per visit and you may camp no more than 30 days on a property per year.

Jennings State Forest Hammock Campground 

Jacksonville RV Park (Naval Air Station)

This conservation area’s importance is magnified by its closeness to the St. Johns River and the Jacksonville metropolitan area. Its riverine bottomland hardwoods, pine flatwoods and sandhill communities protect approximately seven miles of the St. Johns River, which borders the east side of the property. In addition, the property provides storage of flood waters and preserves water and natural resources in the Lower St. Johns River Basin.

One of the special highlights of this property is its two campsites within area 1 in the northern section of the property. Both are special spots. The Hammock campground is tucked back into the flatwoods with an ephemeral stream directly to the east of the camp site. The Riverside campsite is located directly along the St. Johns River with fantastic views of the cypress trees that flank the banks of the river. The Riverside campsite and the trail leading to it can be wet due to seasonal flooding.
