For those who want to get away from civilization for a weekend, but still want the comforts of home, consider renting a cabin for your Monticello camping trip. Finding a place to cabin camp near Monticello is easier than ever. You're sure to find the perfect cabin rental for your Florida camping adventure.
A 375 acre lake is popular with boaters and skiers, and fishing for bass, crappie, catfish and bream is excellent. Paddlers can rent canoes and kayaks to explore this beautiful lake lined with fragrant water lilies and tupelo trees. Guided pontoon boat tours are sometimes offered during events. The beachside pavilion, picnic shelters and group shelters are scenic spots for parties, reunions and other celebrations. Reed Bingham is less than six miles from I-75, making it a relaxing stop for travelers. It was named for Amos Reed Bingham who was instrumental in having the park established.
Visitors to this pretty park usually see abundant wildlife, including species such as gopher tortoises, yellow bellied sliders and indigo snakes. Nesting bald eagles are often seen in winter. American alligators are often seen sunning along the lake’s edge. During winter, thousands of “buzzards,” actually black vultures and turkey vultures, roost in the trees and soar overhead. Nearly 80 percent of the Coastal Plain’s plant community can be found along the park’s Coastal Plain Nature Trail, making this park’s habitat some of the most diverse in the country.

I have camped at many KOA campgrounds, and periodically, I've come across a shining star. This is one of those times. The staff at check-in was terrific, friendly, and just loved what they were doing. The campsites are well-spaced. The facilities are clean. My site A9 was a back-in site, newly added, with a gravel base, perfectly level, full hookups, and 96 channels of crystal clear cable TV. The internet speed was over the top. I was there for two nights and even got to spend time at the local bluegrass festival.
Really liked this campground, I would return. Nice walking trails And you can also kayak down the river. Bathrooms are clean and kept up. I stayed in site 9 - it was a pull thru and very shady with a nice area in the back. Would choose that site again. Did put up the screen over the table as the gnats are fierce. Mosquitoes were there but not that bad
Such a fun time at the Forest Festival. Walked to it from the KOA. Didn’t use laundry but nice facilities and pool & hot-tub are clean and nice! Cute playground! Our site was my favorite yet! Cows and horses are on the property behind the KOA & come up to site 27! The site also has a swing and sunrise and sunsets are so beautiful across the pasture. The bench, table, fire ring at the site, is amazing! Staff is friendly and the store is stocked and cute. Mosquitos are bad so we had to use lots of bug spray.
Selected campground based on proximity to interstate. Loud traffic drove us to stay inside our camper instead of enjoying outside.
Site was unlevel and took three boards to fix side to side, disconnected from TV to fix fore/aft. Concrete pad was all the way forward on the site while connections were over midway back making it so we couldn’t use both easily. Had to park father back to reach connections which was where the site dropped off (causing us to use extra boards to level). We moved the picnic table back towards the camper, otherwise it would have been by our truck’s doors.
Bathrooms were clean, but dated with rusty stall doors. Be aware there are speed humps throughout the campground. No fire pit on our site, but other sites had them. Not sure if we were allowed a fire as such.
For overnight guests, I would recommend asking for sites up near the front of the park, as they appeared newer and more level, although less trees. I would avoid the row next to the bathrooms on the far side of the lake as they appeared to be the most unlevel, like the one we chose based on the website (site 41). Be aware that some of the outer ring sites in the wooded area on the far side are pull-in sites, not pull-thru or back-in, which could make it challenging if you want to drop your trailer and leave.
We would stay again in a pinch, but this isn’t a destination.
My family and I stayed here our first night with a camper without any camping experience. The facilities were great and hooking up was a breeze! I will be going back for a more extended stay but we just wanted to spend a night away with our new camper for this one.
Nothing fancy, but a nice spot to stay. They do have bathrooms and shower which are clean. They also have FHU, W/E and primitive. It is located on a busy HWY 98 so there is traffic noise during the day. St. Marks wildlife refuge is right across the street and Wakulla Springs is about 10 minutes down the road.
Another KOA on our trip to circumnavigate Florida. Another KOA recovering from hurricane damage. But, they do have some things open: the rv sites are open, the dog park (a nice large dog park), the hot tub. They have propane and a limited store. There are also tent sites and cabins. Lots of large live oaks with Spanish moss survived the storm as well. It is about an hour from the Suwannee River State Park where you can see Manatees in the clear waters of the spring.
This place has some rude and unwelcoming staff. The lady who checked us in must not realize she works in the hospitality industry. It’s listed as a KOA “Holiday” but it must have been given that designation a very long time ago. All the amenities are very dated. The sites are narrow and very close together. Would not recommend.
This campground has so much to offer for the kids. Between fishing, the pool, the water park, mining for gems and the 3 playgrounds around the park our son didn’t run out of activities. That’s not to mention to activities the campground plans for the weekends that they write on a board each morning with the times.
There's a water slide pool and lazy river. Cabins are pretty nice, there are atv trails if you have your own atv. You can rent golf carts, there's a store, games (not all of them work tho) pool table. Lots of fun for the whole family. Some of the staff had attitudes when we were there but still had a great time
Site 35 FHU 50 amp All shade Pull through
Excellent site and park! They have mini golf, swimming g, boating, biking and hiking! So much to do. Extremely clean rest rooms, showers, and laundry.
PROS
Site 14- shady; 100% sand; moveable small wooden picnic table and metal fire ring with cooking grate; small clothes line permanently erected
Fairly new bathhouse which was very clean
Quiet except for Interstate 10, US90 and occasional train
Park security gate closes at sunset and requires code to enter
Campground Drive thrus by sheriff and park personnel
Very friendly and helpful volunteers
Lots and lots of squirrels.
Didn’t see any other wild life.
CONS
Paid transaction fee for making my own online reservation
Camping in cars permitted in FHU campsites
No privacy from other sites or campground roadway
No Park WIFI
1 bar TMOBILE
Don’t Miss
Live Oak is the next eastbound Interstate 10 exit, so 7 miles, which has Walmart with Murphy fuel, Lowe’s, Winn-Dixie and Publix
Watch local law enforcement speed surveillance on US90. Goes from 60 mph to 45 mph at the Interstate junction!
Robbie’s Cafe for some reasonably priced home cooking
O’Neal County Buffet in Madison for bodacious fried chicken
Great little quiet clean place. Staff is very friendly.
We used this as the base camp for the area.
Nice camp store/office. We bought wood & had a fire every night.
Bathrooms/showers are outstanding! Recently remodeled & very clean.
The road looks like it's been recently paved as well.
Nice pool/spa.
Our site was a full hookup pull through under large live oaks. It was KOA tight.
Only bad thing to say about it is it's a dirt site. Very messy, even though we had an outdoor rug.
One interesting thing at this KOA is their doggie sites. They have 2 sites that have a penned in yard for your dogs. I think it's brilliant! Probably the wave of the future.
The campground(CG) was easy to find. Check-in was quick and very friendly and we headed to back-in site E-27 for our overnight stay. This premium site is probably one of the most spacious in the CG, especially on the utilities side, where a swing bench looks out to a huge field. There was a nice patio, furniture, and propane grill that unfortunately, due to the January cold weather snap, we did not get to use. There’s a large tree on this site, so satellite could be iffy, but they have cable TV, plus you get a good amount of OTA channels. The sites in this KOA are well-spaced in comparison to others we’ve stayed in the past. They have a nice camp store that even has a humidor with cigars. They also seem to be the town’s“go-to” place for propane fills. Water pressure was good at about 50 PSI, and we got 3 bars on Verizon. We were in the far back corner of the CG and had to carefully plan our departure to avoid tight turns and other campers departing to get to the exit. Perry has your major amenities. Get a site in the back area away from the road noise. As this was easily one of the best KOAs and private CGs we’ve stayed in, we would definitely come back.
The roads and sites are paved. The wifi is not bad, but no cable TV if that is important. The staff is nice. Grounds are kept up well. The trees are beautiful here with the Spanish moss. Kind of pricey for the limited amenities. The sites are also a little snug for big rigs, but doable. Would stay again
We stayed here for just 1 night on the way back to Tennessee. Half of the campground was closed due to renovation. The other sites are almost all pull through sites, which is very nice of you have a bigger camper. Each site had a picnic table, firepit, water and electricity. The bathhouse and showers were very clean. Unfortunately we had no time to do any of the activities like hiking or kayaking. The lake looks very inviting for fishing or boating. We also saw several Gopher tortoise dens but unfortunately no tortoise. We would love to stop again and explore the park.
Beautiful grounds and super sweet staff. Sits by a camping world so if you need anything it’s here! Everyone was super friendly. Will come again. It’s near the highway so there is a little traffic noise but that doesn’t bother us.
Stayed for one night and would have enjoyed several more. Good sized sites, nice trails and live oaks, a playground. Add 5 bucks to the cost of booking, because there is a 5 dollar park fee. Still reasonable, cheap actually for what you get. 8 to 10 minutes off of 75, but worth it for the quiet and beauty compared to roadside stops.
Nice shady campsites. Four tent sites. Individual bathrooms, game room, heated pool. Clubhouse is currently being remodeled. Very quiet.
General: 30-site campground, all with full hookups (water, electric - 30 and 50 amp - and sewer). Two of the sites are handicap accessible with concrete driveways; the others are gravel. There are also cabins which looked very nice. We received a call from the ranger since the ranger station would close before our arrival letting us know the gate code (although it turned out the gate was still open), and where to pick up our hang tag and park information.
Site Quality: All sites appeared to be level. Not much privacy/separation between sites and with the exception of one of the handicapped sites, it was full when we were there on a weekday at the end of October. A picnic table and fire grate complete the site.
Bathhouse: Very clean. Didn’t use the shower so cannot comment on them but they looked very clean.
Activities/Amenities: Several hiking trails, most of them short in length but there was one 12.5-mile trail. The trails are all well-marked. There is also a boat ramp. Nice modern washer and dryer for a very reasonable cost of $1.50 each
This was just an overnight stopover for us but we did walk partway on Lime Sink Run, Balanced Rock, and Suwanee River Trails. It looks like they are making improvements to the park, including a wooden boardwalk and a new bridge on the Suwanee River Trail. If there was more separation/privacy between sites, would have given this four stars.
Always pristine clean and well kept!
We‘ve been to about 10 state parks in Florida and we loved this one the most. It‘s very well maintained and super clean and the bathhouse looks new. The trails are nice. Just really good vibes!
Great Rv location and trail
Nice state park with access to the Suwannee River. There is a scenic hiking trail along the river. The campground has a few sites with vegetation and space in between, but most sites are close together and have little vegetation. The restrooms were clean and the camp hosts were great.
This has to be one of the nicest parks we have stayed at so far.. Peggy at the front desk was so nice and helpful.. the bath house was clean and big and private.. best I have seen so far.. beautiful scenery and a welcoming duck party! With a few goats to visit as well.. is right off 75 so you do hear the traffic but it's very convenient so that makes up for it.. this place is big and they are doing more to to add on even more comforts.. we definitely will be coming back...
Probably the cleanest bathrooms and showers we ever saw!!!!! Staff was friendly and helpful and the grounds were spotless. They care and it shows.
