    Coe Landing Campground sits on the shores of Lake Talquin, offering waterfront sites where dogs can enjoy lakeside views with their owners. Most pet-friendly campgrounds near Midway maintain standard leash policies, with animals required to be under control at all times. Several campgrounds in the area provide full hookups that accommodate RVs traveling with pets, including water and electric connections. The bathrooms at Coe Landing are consistently rated as clean and well-maintained by campers traveling with dogs. High Bluff Campground in Lake Talquin State Forest provides a more primitive camping experience for those with pets, offering tent sites and RV spots with limited amenities. While camping with pets is permitted, campers report varying conditions across sites.

    Lake Talquin State Forest's trail network provides excellent dog walking opportunities, though some areas require driving to trailheads rather than direct campground access. Visitors often spot wildlife including alligators from fishing piers and docks, making it essential to keep pets leashed and supervised near water areas. Fort Braden Tract offers primitive pet-friendly campsites connected to hiking trails ideal for dog exercise. Hot and humid conditions from spring through fall make mosquito protection necessary for both humans and pets, with several reviews mentioning aggressive insects during warmer months. Multiple fishing docks throughout the area provide spaces where leashed pets can join their owners, though swimming is not recommended due to alligator presence. The quiet, wooded settings of these campgrounds offer natural surroundings for pets accustomed to outdoor environments.

      Flat Creek Family Campground

      Great Overnight Spot~close to Quincy & Torrey State Park

      Visiting friends in Quincy, easy to reserve a last minute site. Pull through with FHU. Under $50 with our GS discount. Excellent Dog park(huge and clean with lots of grass and seating) Pool was behind our site, clean but didn’t use. Our 40” fifth wheel barely fit. The front sites, and back of the park were the best sites. Staff was friendly, and nice general store. Facilities were clean, but we didn’t use. Close to town I-10. Had fair connection with T-Mobile.

      Florida Caverns RV Resort

      Nice Stay

      We stayed here for two nights/three days of a ten day trip. It was hands-down the nicest of the locations. Clean, concrete pads, excellent location and good wi-fi that was not up-charged. The pool area was nice and clean. Service and staff were excellent/friendly and they escorted us to our site upon arrival. They also have trash pickup at your site daily. We saw a security truck drive through several times and had no problems from our neighbors. The location near the water cannot be beat. We were located near the docks and I was able to launch my paddle board easily. The water was gorgeous and clear on the adjacent spring/pond. Our AT&T cell service was good. 

      My only(very minor) complaints are that there are very few trees or shaded areas at this location and it would have been nice to have the fire pits included at the site. We did not spend any time sitting outside our camper and we only did about ten minutes in the dog park because of the sun, but then again, it's Florida in July in an area that's still recovering from tornadoes and a major hurricane. And by the time we thought it had cooled off enough to enjoy s'mores in the evening, the office had long since closed so we couldn't rent a fire pit. We have family that we visit often in the area, so we will definitely stay here again! We camped at Florida Caverns RV Resort at Merritt's Mill Pond in a Travel Trailer.

      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.

      Alliance Hill RV Resort

      Such a nice park!

      Beautiful, quiet country setting. Loved it!! Saw deer, many birds and gorgeous sunsets. Spacious sites with cement pads. Full hook-ups except cable. Able to get multiple channels with antenna only. Very nice clubhouse, pool, restrooms and laundry. Everything inside and out is immaculate. Fenced dog park with toys and obstacles. Gated RV park so only park guests are driving in. Manager, Stacey, cheerful and kind. Obviously enjoys her job. Park is within easy driving distance to 4 state parks and several small towns so we took day trips to sightsee. Would definitely stay here again if back in the area.

      Newer campground

      Newer RV park. Clean restrooms. Pool and dog park are some of the amenities. There is a boat ramp and docks/slips, but the lake was almost empty - no fault of the campground. Some sites are paved some are not. No privacy between sites. Electric capacity lacking. Only had an amp hookup but needed outlets for our popup. No fire rings - need to rent. There is a store/gas station at the front of the park. Would not stay again for personal preference.

      Nice resort and friendly Stagg.

      Nice campground resort. Within 10 mins to everything you need from Walmart to Hospital. Very nice Clubhouse with a kitchen that can be reserved by guests. Nice pool . Nice laundry room. And a workout room . The only downfall I have noticed is being able to hear the traffic from 90 in the evenings but not a big deal to me. Nice restrooms with showers . Fenced in dog park. Everything you need for a great stay !

      Tallahassee East Campground

      Do not bother unless emergency

      Very run down campgrounds that used to be a KOA and now a Good Sams campground. Not maintained very much even though the few staff tried to clean it a bit. Weeds, not mowed, peeling ceilings in dated bath house with exterior doors that do not close or have keyed entry. Only trash can was in laundry room which was at least open 24 hours but many machines out of order. WiFi only during business hours. Friend stayed in minimal cabin and was dim missing bulbs and smoke detector. They even charge a pet fee to clean cabin after pets.

    Guide to Midway

    Camping options near Midway, Florida include a mix of state-managed areas and private facilities clustered around Lake Talquin. The lake was created in 1927 when the Ochlockonee River was dammed, forming a 15-mile long reservoir spanning 8,800 acres. Summer temperatures regularly exceed 90°F with high humidity, while winters stay mild with occasional frost.

    What to do

    Wildlife viewing opportunities: The Lake Talquin area offers excellent wildlife spotting chances beyond the shoreline. At High Bluff Campground — Joe Budd WMA and Lake Talquin State Forest, visitors often spot native wildlife. "Caught a beautiful sunset over the lake and saw a massive gator hanging out by the fishing pier. The gator was back in the morning as I was enjoying my cup of coffee out on the pier!" reports Tucker B.

    Lake kayaking: The calm waters of Lake Talquin make for excellent paddling, especially during early morning hours. Ed and Bernices Fish Camp and RV Park provides direct water access. One visitor shares: "We kayaked and loved and I mean absolutely love being on this river. Did some swimming and fishing off the side. Caught some huge brim, they were delicious."

    Hiking nearby trails: Several trail networks surround the Midway area, though most require short drives from campgrounds. "We enjoyed our time here. Nice, small campground at edge of lake. Beautiful views. Great hiking with huge trail network at Fort Braden on adjacent property but the bummer is that there was way to connect to them from campground due to swamp and geography," notes Kathy L. from Coe Landing.

    What campers like

    Fishing access: Many dog friendly campgrounds near Midway offer excellent fishing without leaving the property. At Williams Landing Campground, anglers can fish directly from shore. "Inexpensive with friendly host. Not overcrowded. Quiet and peaceful next to beautiful lake," writes Marvin J. The campground includes a public boat ramp with moderate traffic during peak fishing times.

    Quiet surroundings: The more remote campgrounds provide peaceful settings away from urban noise. "Very pleasant with a lakeside view. Our site didn't have any shade but the adjoining site, with friends, had plenty. Sites were absolutely level with gravel. Plenty of room between and little noise," says Ted H. about Eastbank.

    Affordable pricing: Campers consistently mention reasonable rates as a major plus for pet-friendly camping in Midway. "The price and luxuries you have for the price is amazing. Thank you!" notes Tatum B. about Coe Landing Campground. Most sites range from $15-35 per night, with county parks generally offering the lowest rates.

    What you should know

    Insect preparation: Beyond mosquitoes, multiple insects create challenges during warmer months. "The only reason I would drop a star (but it's not their fault) is because there were SO many mosquitoes at night," shares Sarah L. about Coe Landing. Campers should pack strong repellent, netting, and consider spring or fall visits for reduced insect activity.

    Limited amenities: Many campsites near Midway offer basic facilities only. "No power, no water, no WiFi, no store. T-Mobile was very good with 300+ Mbps. The last 3 miles are dirt road, but in good condition as long as you can stay in the middle without traffic," explains Sebastian L. about High Bluff Campground.

    Water safety concerns: Fort Braden Tract Primitive Campsites — Lake Talquin State Forest sits directly on the water, requiring caution with pets and children. "Brilliant view of Lake Talquin, right on the water. Even got a visit from your friendly neighborhood alligator in the middle of the night, which when I realized after the fact what the sound was was terrifying," reports Edward W.

    Tips for camping with families

    Campground size considerations: For families seeking quieter experiences, consider smaller facilities. "This is a nice campground to explore Tallahassee and the surrounding area from. Many people also bring their boats with them and explore Lake Talquin. The park is small and there isn't a lot to do in the park itself," explains EMRY H. about Coe Landing.

    Boat access for kids: Several pet-friendly campgrounds near Midway feature docks that children enjoy. "We really enjoyed our short stay! The campground was affordable, esp when you consider the lovely water views. Each spot is designated clearly, is level, and has its own lake vista. Oh, and there are a few docks to fish and explore upon!" shares Joana A.

    Weather planning: The area experiences significant seasonal variations. "Did some car camping here in March and it was already hot and full of mosquitos. The sites are huge and far from each other. Big dock with heavy day (and evening and early morning) use from serious fisherman," notes Dan X.

    Tips from RVers

    Leveling challenges: Many campsites require extra effort for RV leveling. Tallahassee RV Park provides more developed sites. "They rake the spaces so they're nice and even. We still had a slight slope but not a big deal. Very quiet and beautiful! They have a pool, playground, and a clubhouse," notes Tonya B.

    Limited big rig access: Several campgrounds have restricted space for larger rigs. "We chose this park as the first stop on our way to Canada. Far from the main road, down a steep rutted driveway, onto a grassy lot. Yes, there is 50 amps, water and sewer, but the water spigot is 25 feet from the coach," reports Angela M. at Ed and Bernices Fish Camp.

    Water connections: Many dog-friendly campgrounds near Midway offer water hookups, but quality varies. "Water spigots at each site, but we filled up our jug with it and dumped it back out, water had a brownish tinge," mentions Laura M. about Hall Landing Campground. RVers should consider bringing additional water or filtration.
