  Horne Lake RV Resort

  Peaceful Paddles and Lakeside Charm

  Sitting about as close as you can to the Florida / Georgia state line, Horne Lake RV Resort near Yulee, FL offers up a serene stop for RVers looking for a laid-back 182-acre retreat just minutes from I95 (exit 380). The atmosphere here is more ‘friendly neighborhood park with a lake’ than backwoods wilderness that is more of a pitstop than a destination, but don’t let that fool you with a setting that is charming, calm and perfect for those who like a mix of easy access and natural surroundings. First impressions are tidy pavement pads, tree-lined roads, narrow gravel pathways and a central pond that anchors the entire campground with a reflective calm that immediately slows your pulse after a long spell on the road buzzing up or down the busiest thoroughfare in all of FL - I95.

  The facilities here are geared toward comfort with sites offering 73 paved, pull-through sites full hookup with water, sewer, and 30 / 50 amp electric, with most spots being level, spacious and easy to navigate. While there aren’t true lakefront sites here, the namesake is accessible by foot or a short drive, offering plenty of opportunities to stroll down, cast a line or watch the birds. Restrooms and shower facilities are well-kept, laundry is available, there's a proper dump station, community fire pit near the office, propane refueling station and the WiFi holds up for streaming or remote work. There’s also a clubhouse with community activities and shaded picnic areas if you want to mingle and on the southern flank of the property’s perimeter is a saltwater pool that is heated year-round. The park is pet-friendly, so Fido can make friends too, and the paved internal roads are handy for morning walks or bike rides.

  The lake itself is modest in size and more of a large pond than a sprawling body of water, but it’s stocked with bass, catfish and bream, making it an inviting spot for anglers who prefer a calm, easy cast albeit with a catch & release requirement. Birdwatchers will enjoy spotting herons, egrets, and osprey, while turtles and the occasional otter round out the wildlife sightings. Further up the road, the broader Brunswick area adds layers of charm with historic squares, the nearby Marshes of Glynn and barrier island day trips to stellar isles like St. Simons, Jekyll and Sea Island are all within reach. And if you’re craving something hearty after a day of exploring, local favorites like Willie Jewell’s Old School Bar-B-Q and Bob’s Famous BBQ for sublime, slow-smoked Q, Bohemian Bull for gastropub fare, Grumpy’s serving up fantastic low-country breakfast & brunch and Añejo Cocina with superb chimichangas serve up some of the best food in Yulee.

  Insider Tips? Here’s a few: (1) If fishing’s on your agenda, bring lightweight tackle for bass and bream when early mornings and evenings are best; (2) The nearby Brunswick Golden Isles welcome center is a fantastic stop for maps, local history and birdwatching guides; (3) Kayakers can launch into the pond, but if you want real water adventures, head to the Altamaha River or out to St. Simons for bigger paddles; (4) Don’t skip a stroll around the lake at sunset as the reflections of the trees on the water are pure tranquility; (5) Bug spray is a must in summer, especially around the pond edges; and (6) If you need to stock up, there’s a Walmart Supercenter and Home Depot along with plenty of grocery options within 10 minutes of the park back in Yulee, so convenience is never an issue.

  Happy Camping!

  Katherine Hannah park

  Surf, Seaside, Sun & Shady Pines Camping on JAX Atlantic Coast Shore

  On the north end of Jacksonville’s shoreline, Kathryn Abbey Hanna Park blends the best of oceanside camping with a dense, wooded escape that makes you forget you’re within city limits. First impressions are impressive: over 290 sites tucked beneath a maritime hammock of pines and oaks, all within a short walk or bike ride of 1.5 miles of pristine Atlantic beachfront. The place is equal parts 'beach bum paradise' and forest retreat, which was perfect for our little family circus of six campers (my daughter Cloe, her best friend Chloe, my brother-in-law with his wife along with my wife and I). Yes, that’s right ... two girls named Cloe / Chloe, which meant every time someone yelled 'Chlo!,' we got a duet of 'What?' in stereo. 

  Facilities are solid, though they come with quirks. Most sites have water and electric hookups and while they’re roomy enough, tree roots and uneven pads will make you thankful for those leveling blocks you swore you wouldn’t need. Primitive tent sites are there for the purists, but we opted for power (you know, because teenagers don’t do 'unplugged' if they can help it!). Bathhouses are scattered around and functional, though calling them 'retro' or 'rustic' would be generous while timing a shower mid-afternoon is the trick if you don’t want to wait in line with a soap caddy. 

  Other amenities hit the sweet spot for families including laundry for sandy towels, playgrounds for younger kids, a camp store for forgotten essentials and a 60-acre freshwater lake with canoe, kayak, and paddleboard rentals. That lake was my brother-in-law’s favorite spot, though he spent most of his time swatting ants and muttering about their conspiracy against him. Surroundings are where Hanna Park really shines though. Direct beach access gave the girls endless room for sunrise walks, sandy selfies, and attempts at surfing that ended in more wipeouts than rides. Miles of biking and hiking trails crisscross the dunes and shaded hammocks and we discovered that mountain biking is basically a guaranteed way to test your health insurance deductible. 

  Wildlife here is abundant (and I mean more than just the infinite number of ant hills you'll encounter!) with herons, ospreys, and dolphins offshore, plus mosquitoes and sand gnats that could’ve been cast as extras in a vampire movie. Road traffic near the main entrance occasionally breaks the natural vibe, but overall the park feels like an oasis, especially when dinner ends at a Mayport seafood shack instead of my half-charred hot dogs. 

  Insider tips? Yep, here’s a handful: (1) Book early and aim for shaded sites deeper in the loops where privacy is precious when you’ve got teenagers who 'need space'; (2) Bring industrial-strength bug spray and plenty of leveling blocks because they’re as essential here as sunscreen on the beach (which you should also NOT forget!); (3) Time your showers for the afternoon lull unless you enjoy the morning bathhouse rush, which resembles a theme park line without the rollercoaster at the end and plenty of people walking around in towels; (4) Treat yourself to a meal in Mayport where Singleton’s, Sandollar and Safe Harbor all serve up amazing seafood so fresh you’ll swear it jumped on your plate; (5) Stick to the lake for calmer paddles or hit the surf if you want to watch your brother-in-law get humbled by the ocean; and (6) Walk briskly near the lake unless you want to make friends with the resident ant colonies: they’re organized, fearless and seem to work in shifts. 

  Happy Camping!

  Anastasia State Park Campground

  Sand Dunes & Sea Breezes Near Ancient City

  I’m following up on my review from over a year ago with updated insights, additional photos and a quick breakdown of HIGHLIGHTS and LOWLIGHTS: 

  HIGHLIGHTS: (1) 139 shaded sites nestled under live oaks dripping with Spanish moss and palmettos with water and electric hookups; (2) Quick access to 4 miles of pristine Atlantic beach; (3) Amenities include bathhouses, dump station, camp store and rental concession; (4) Nature trails and birding along salt marshes and dunes; (5) Minutes from downtown St. Augustine’s history and attractions; (6) Nearby restaurants include O’Steen’s Restaurant, which is famous for fried shrimp, Mellow Mushroom offering hippie-themed pies and Salt Life Food Shack offering up casual seafood with rooftop views. 

  LOWLIGHTS: (1) Tight sites where large RVs may struggle; (2) No sewer hookups at individual sites; (3) Reservations book up fast, especially weekends – trust me, this is one of the MOST POPULAR CAMPGROUNDS in all of Florida!; (4) Mosquitoes and no-see-ums thrive in warm months; and (5) Road noise from A1A can be noticeable. 

  Happy Camping!

  Kathryn Abbey Hanna Park

  Didn't like it at all

  When you come in, they give you your site number and a convoluted map no direction at all. Smell sewage as soon as you roll your window down to check in. Whenever you do find your site, it might be really tight. Mine was on a curve from the road. Once I got into the muddy pit, I had to sqeezed my vehicle between my rig and a tree to park so as not to block the curve. The sewer line was 4 inches off the ground, and at a 90-degree angle, gravity doesn't work well with this setup. I left the park and spent the night at a rest stop, instead of where I felt safer. Also, finding your way out is a challenge. I saw 1 exit sign after driving in seemingly circles for 20 minutes. It's a cheap rental but you understand why after being there for more than 10 minutes. Will NOT go back.

  Wonderfully quiet State Park

  Nice hikes and birding abound! Amazing sunrises with the birds at the lakes. It's quiet, and the sites are relatively private. The volunteers are amazing, as are the Rangers that run the park. Highly recommend to get away from the city.
