    Best campground

    Jonathan Dickinson Pinegrove State Park is among the best parks I've ever visited. The bathrooms are spotless, the trails are extensive, and the people are incredibly friendly and helpful. I highly recommend this place.

    Great for family fun

    This is a wonderful park to go camping in. My family and I typically spend 2 weeks there every summer. The pine scrub forest makes for such an amazing adventure and perfect campsite experience. There are bicycle trails, canoeing/kayaking options, Hobe Sound beach nearby. I absolutely live this place.

    Quick stop

    This campground was awesome. We stopped here on our way to the Keys. We have a big Class A and had no reservation. We called and they offer a walk in availability. We got there right before 5:00 when they were about to close. There was a site for us! The staff was super friendly and helpful. We will come back when can explore their amenities. Highly recommend. Great for families.

    Stayed the night

    Just stayed for the night in between long drives. Got in late and left early so didn’t have a chance to really experience the entirety of the campground. Camp site was clean and very large, included a table and fire pit, easy to back into thanks to the size. Outhouse building doesn’t have any AC so it’s scorching in there, but was relatively clean. Was only there for a few hours but did see some rabbits and frogs hopping around which was fun for the kids.

    Beautiful Campground

    We had a great time on our first trip here in our new camper. Campsites were very large with full hookup. There were plenty running and hiking trails. Our favorite thing was paddle boarding on the river.

    Great to escape winter

    Hobe Sound FL Jonathan Dickinson SP This park has two campgrounds. Pine Grove Campground, has 90 sites, it is located near the ranger station. These large sites have more space between and foliage for privacy. Sites have clothes line, fire pit, picnic table and are all level gravel. Very nice clean bathouses with family room. None of the washers and dryers were working. There's a playground and picnic Pavilion. Some road and train noise. Had good downpour today and had a little lake at back of site but within an hour it disappeared! Great place to stargaze. Saw a  great full Wolf Moon.

    River Campground is more rustic, it has 52 sites, is about four miles from the park entrance, near the Loxahatchee River. Sites close together, no privacy. The River CG is great if you plan to fish or kayak. Close to boat ramp. Sites are dirt. Also more mosquitoes. There's major utility construction going on next to this camp right now. 

    Good things- Miles of paved and off road bike  and hike trails, great bird watching, star gazing, canoeing, kayaking, fishing. Seasonal horse back rides. Fun and informative boat tour to Trapper Nelson's. There's a great learning center. Amazon delivers to Ranger station. Stores and restaurants a couple miles away.

    This Park is a Gem

    The campsites are well spaced with foliage between. The bath houses are numerous and exceptionally clean. The park has many bike trails, although some require a helmet. There is also a river running through it so kayaking and canoeing is popular. Everything is there to rent as well, including bikes. We spent 6 days there and still only scratched the surface

    Cool place (high EMF though)

    I did primitive camping... I was unclear on where to go, but did find the area just as it got dark (I was using a pop up tent and was ok).

    Had a very relaxing and restful night full of high quality and undisturbed sleep.

    I was searching for powerline road and figured out I was supposed to simply follow the power line!

    Was a pretty place but did not like having to be so near EMF radiation from the powerline I had to hike under for a few miles... I also didn't like the 5G tower next door.

    But the good news was weather was perfect!

    Great but buggy

    Stayed at River Campground. The sites vary a lot in size and the booking website does not accurately show the size or location of each site. But still had a blast and spent some time on the River.

    JDSP-River Campground

    The park is beautiful, must climb Hobe Mountain, the views are stunning. From there you can see both the intracoastal waterway and the Atlantic Ocean in one direction and sand dunes every other direction. Great trails to ride your bike. Clean shower and toilet areas.

    Awesome park with very friendly rangers

    We stayed for a quick 24 hour trip on our way down to the keys. Kayaking was great and the campsite was perfect and private. There is lots of wildlife present so be sure to secure all food 😬 Would definitely stay again for more than one day as there is so much to do/see!

    Great bike trails!

    My kids especially enjoyed the pump track and the skills course. The campground was nice and clean. We will come back for sure! We visited Coral Cove beach in Jupiter while we were there which was beautiful and the Indian River was so peaceful and amazing at sunset. We ate at Dune Dogs which had amazing food!

    So much to do in beautiful state park with river near beach

    Jonathon Dickinson SP, Jupiter Florida Dickinson SP Large park with miles of paved and off road trails for biking and hiking. Lots to do, horse back riding, boat tours, discovery center, bird watching, off road bike challenge course. We've seen otter, tortoise, birds, eagles so far.Nice sites in two campgrounds. We're in River CG, more shade, a few paved sites but most are dirt/mud. The Pine Grove CG close to entrance, more spacious, not much shade, paved and nice gravel sites. If you get the chance take the river tour. We went on the one that goes to Trapper Nelson's place where you get a ranger guided walk. Totally worth the$25 fee.

    Great place to spend Christmas

    Have waited six months into our RV life to start reviews for fair comparisons. Spent 7 nights but in 3 different sites as over Christmas. This felt like a proper FL holiday. Easy access to the beach, great biking in the park. Lots of great coffee and places to grab food nearby with a sidewalk for biking/walking from the park.
