"Great campground with beautiful scenery by the lake! This campground reopened on March 31, 2021 at 50% capacity. We stayed there 5 nights- March 31 to April 5, 2021."
"Also the camp site is near The Florida National Trail which is a footpath from the south to the north of FL. There is plenty of places to lauch your kayak or boat."
"We did have to be extra careful with our little dog tho because we did get the sense that something could try to eat it since the sites are in the middle of the woods."
"Also easy to drive up and park car and put up tent next to it."
$20 - $100 / night

TravelerBest campsite I've been to so far! With the state park close by, you can go tubing, kayaking or just for a swim. The office has pool tables and games for kids to enjoy. The staff are incredibly friendly. There's also a lot of friendly animals that live on the property, such as goats, a donkey, chickens, dogs and cats. It's a wonderful family friendly experience for all. Bring your friendly pets too! Very pet friendly.
LegendLocated right across George Highway 23 from the entrance to the Okefenokee National Wildlife Refuge, this is easy access to the facilities at the refuge. Most sites are full hook up, several are pull through. There is a laundry, showers, a dog park, camp store and restaurant. This is a Good Sam park !
ScoutEverything we could hope for; private sites, extra large super-sites, pull-through, back-in, fishing lake, swimming lake, swimming pool, sports courts, dog park, pub and poolside cafe and restaurant, miles of walking trails and conservation area. We are happy campers, can't wait for spring.
LegendLarge sites. Very nice pool. First rate laundry facilities. Great playground and dog park.
GuideSo fun! Awesome dog parks, chicken poop bingo (yes, you read that right!), pigeon races, movie and ice cream nights….too much to list! Easy to get around with RV.
RangerFirst time here. Love it, will be back for sure. Great river/springs access. Great for kayaking/tubing or boating. Great dog areas. Food is good on the weekends, live music, very poor wifi. Spots by the dog park don’t have shade but most of the other sites do. Lots of fun activities. Great bike path just off property. Friendly staff. Site 212 was 50 amp only so I had to use a converter. Can rent kayaks on site if you don’t own one.
GuideOvernighted here on the way to FL Keys. Pulled in way after hours. Campground was easy to navigate. Site was a pull through and very narrow but it worked for one night.
Bonus was a large dog park right across the street.
RangerWould have given 5 stars if internet was decent but it was awful. Our rig is 42’ w/ 4 slides and had lots of space. Escorted to our site. Nice picnic tables. Pool area was clean and inviting. Big playground. Dog park was up in front by office so long walk when hot. Laundry was reasonable $1.25. Office staff were friendly. Starke is very small and not much to do. Sonny’s BBQ is good!! Gainesville is an hour away.
GuideI would have given 5 stars but a couple of issues hindered that decision. For the $$$ per night we were not able to use the cable TV as it was being worked on while we were there as well as the wifi was down. No compensation was offered. We had to request a picnic table and no fire pit or ring available on the site. Pad was large enough, just, for our 42ft rig and truck. Water pressure was adequate at 50 psi. Park is large clean and well maintained, great dog park, pool, very close to I95. One exit down has a ton of shopping and places to eat. Airport very close so be ready to hear plains landing everyday. Local flee market next door. Beaches are a 30min drive but worth the ride. Overall it was a little pricey for this particular park.
