"Clean bathrooms. Swimming pool. Small market/ general store within walking distance."
"A little traffic noise but not too bad. It had a boat dock and pier to observe the St. Marks River. The St. Marks lighthouse is so close and a must see during all times of the day."
"Brian was very nice on the phone and didn't even come around to collect $! In fairness, I was there for a short time and dropped the appropriate fare by the door of their RV on my way out."
"Had a fire pit with grill and picnic table. Right on the lake with pier access and boat ramp- pretty cool spot. Only lost a star because of previous campers leaving some trash behind."

Check Availability"Each spot is so far away from each other that you feel completely secluded, which is nice. We stayed at Pidcock Rd. "

"Torreya State Park is tucked away by itself and has a smaller campground at only 29 sites, and it's part of what makes it a great place to get away. Small and remote means peace and quiet."

GuideNo complaints about this site; plenty of campsites to pick from even with about 6 other campers; space to spread out from others. Good for primitive tent camping. Had a fire pit with grill and picnic table. Right on the lake with pier access and boat ramp- pretty cool spot. Only lost a star because of previous campers leaving some trash behind.
GuideThis was a quick overnight stay for myself. I arrived a little bit after sunset and left fairly early in the morning.
Stayed at site number 18, which was Lakeside, but all campsites have decent view of lake through the trees. There is a dock and she can walk down to the water itself.
This is a very isolated place, and you have to drive down a dirt road, but very packed, which even sedans can handle no problem, unless it’s been raining that it might get a little slippery
When I stayed, it was 34° so didn’t do a whole lot but get set up in the rooftop tent and sleep. No real issues with Internet, for Verizon, but signal wasn’t super strong.
There is a toilet bathroom that is composting style, without sinks or showers.
But I booked I thought it said electrical, but after I booked, it said no electrical and when I arrived on site, there was a electrical pedestal, looked brand new, but not working. Unknown if they will soon have electricity or not ever used.
For its isolation and quietness and availability, I would definitely return. I don’t have a lot in this area to attend to, but this is a nice spot.
Star count is only down, ranked due to lack of electricity and water, as well as the slightly difficult drive in. That’s a plus for some people, but that’s how I do my star rankings.
LegendTorreya State Park is tucked away by itself and has a smaller campground at only 29 sites, and it's part of what makes it a great place to get away.
Small and remote means peace and quiet. The sites aren't very private, but there aren't many and folks seem to keep to themselves.
The bathrooms are small but decent and well-maintained, and there are 30-amp electric and water on each site. Another nice feature is a very clean laundry area. It only has one washer and dryer, but the campground is small enough that doesn't seem to be a problem.
Nearby trails, some accessible right from the campground, also make this a good spot to use as a basecamp if you want to get out and explore some of Florida's natural beauty. Also, Gregory House is an 1850s plantation home that you can visit for a guided tour and is within walking distance of the campground.
GuideThere’s a hiking loop called the Great Challenge. It’s so difficult, meandering up and down in elevation for 9 miles, that you may give up. Camping is grand— so much wildlife. If you’re lucky you may be able to see a panther or an indigo snake. The campgrounds used to be lush but Hurricane Irma really did a number of the vegetation. However, it doesn’t take away from the enjoying the doors. The river is nearby and across the river allows hunting so you may hear hunters. If you come in from the river and try to camp, make sure it hasn’t rained a lot which could make hiking up to a campsite challenging. They have both dispersed campsites and drive-up.
RangerI wish I could give this park 6 stars! We camped on a quiet weekend in September and had the place mostly to ourselves. Two small bathhouses and both were spotless (I mean actually WITHOUT SPOTS, cleanest I’ve ever seen). The grounds were well kept and not a piece of trash in sight. They had aluminum can recycling which is always a plus! Tons and tons of trails, some more used than others but all well marked. History fans will enjoy the Gregory House and Civil War trail exhibit. Staff was AMAZING and super welcoming! We will be back!
GuideVery small county campground. Went selected for location to bike trails and beaches. Bathhouses were mostly clean but well worn. No personal on site most of the time. Handful of long term people who are friendly.
TravelerSuper friendly staff, very inviting place with pool, campfires, picnic benches at every site, super clean family friendly bathrooms and showers. It was Easter Sunday when we were there and they invited all children for egg hunting and after egg hunting they did raffle (at no cost) and let kids pick prizes (all prizes were related to outdoor toys or camping related like glow sticks) my oldest son won a grand prize (fishing rod) for collecting most eggs. Basic store inside the office for milk, eggs, and rv related stuff. Clean Laundry room at site. Nice wooded area to roam around, bike, collect woods 🪵for campfire. All sites are not paved but we enjoyed our weekly stay at very reasonable price of $175/week or $500/month. Highly recommend to anyone.
GuideAnother reviewer got it right-HOSPITALITY. We rolled in after hours but still were welcomed SO WELL by the owner & given a color print-out map with our receipt/etc. He helped us park & answered our many questions about the flora & fauna. Where we're from magnolia is a sort of decorative shrub- here they stand over 60' tall. Yes,, there are 'tree snakes'. Walk "firmly" to let snakes know you're coming, as its the startled ones that strike. Starting from a field near the barns there's a path leading to a small waterfall by a rise that may be an Native American burial mound. Flat Creek is nice, and clearly on its way to so e improvements also. Map I photographed shows length of today's spaces. Fortunately for us in spot 16,# 21 was open, so the pulling-through was just that. Pads are asphaltish- gravel… we needed to do some slight leveling. We really liked it here! Oh, and its across the way from a fun something we'd read about on the Atlas Obscura - the deadly fast, now illegal sport of Jai-Alai was once played and (bet upon) there.
LegendFabulous trip. Hiking is awesome in the area. Hiking at the park is a little rugged. Garden of Eden nearby is wonderful. Small, quiet campground. Very clean bathrooms. Sites can be tight and are very close together. Sites 17 and up have great views of the sunset.
Lake Talquin State Forest offers glamping experiences near Sopchoppy, Florida, with both primitive and developed sites throughout the region. The area features diverse ecosystems across rolling terrain, with elevations reaching up to 130 feet along river bluffs. Weather ranges from hot, humid summers with afternoon thunderstorms to mild winters that can occasionally drop below freezing.
Fishing at local waterways: High Bluff Campground provides excellent fishing opportunities on Lake Talquin. "We 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!" notes Tucker B. from High Bluff Campground.
Boat launches and water access: Many campgrounds offer direct river or lake access. At Tate's Hell State Forest, "There are 3 separate High Bluff Primitive campsites, one at Dry Bridge, one at Rake Creek and one at Pidcock Road. Each spot is so far away from each other that you feel completely secluded," according to Laura M. from Tate's Hell State Forest.
Wildlife viewing opportunities: The region hosts diverse wildlife including alligators, birds, and occasionally larger mammals. "I could see how it could be well used for day picnics and fishing and could become quite noisy. The boat ramp is separated from the camp a bit, and it was not noisy," reports J V. who stayed at High Bluff Campground.
Secluded camping options: Many campers appreciate the remote sites available throughout the region. "We stayed at Pidcock Road Campsite #49 during the 2020 Leonid meteor shower. Nice place for dogs (req'd on leash) as no other campsites nearby. Very quiet, no water or electricity," shares Vince F. about Tate's Hell.
Unique camping experiences: Goat House Farm offers a one-of-a-kind glamping in Sopchoppy where guests share space with farm animals. "We had such a fun time camping at the goat farm. Where you literally camp with goats. The male goats hang out right beside you and your tents. (Be sure to keep your tents closed or they will sleep with you too, ha!)" explains Abby.
Hiking trails: Torreya State Park features challenging hiking trails with significant elevation changes. "There's a hiking loop called the Great Challenge. It's so difficult, meandering up and down in elevation for 9 miles, that you may give up. Camping is grand— so much wildlife," reports Issa F.
Varying toilet facilities: Facilities range from none to well-maintained depending on the campground. "The vault toilet was well stocked with toilet paper and kept clean, but there was some trash around the campground," notes Stacie R. about High Bluff Campground.
Access roads can be challenging: Many sites require driving on unpaved roads. "Road in was bumpy with some huge pits but easily navigable even in our 26ft class c, just watch the road and take it slow," advises Laura M. about Tate's Hell State Forest.
Cell service limitations: Coverage varies widely across the area. "AT&T coverage was pretty dismal, with 1 bar of 5GE service and speeds only up to 0.9 MB/s. The CG has a lot of trees, but the pines only have top foliage, so access and coverage for DISH and Starlink was really good," reports Ray & Terri F.
Animal interactions: Holiday Campground offers waterfront sites with space for families. "Nice little CG on the bay with a good number of direct bayfront sites. Some with pine trees for shade. Clean bathrooms. Swimming pool. Small market/general store within walking distance," notes Greg Z.
Kid-friendly farm experiences: Goat House Farm offers interactive animal experiences. "The kids absolutely loved it. They cried when it was time to leave and told all the animals bye. The staff is so friendly and helpful," shares Abby.
Safety considerations: Be aware of wildlife, especially near water. "I don't recommend swimming in the water, its pretty murky. Nice and shady spots and you can reserve ahead of time," advises Alycia P. about High Bluff Campground.
Site selection for larger rigs: Some campgrounds have limited space for bigger rigs. "For a 26" tt the spot was just enough, a little rough to back into. Entirely worth it. If you're looking for a peaceful, quiet place this is it. Be sure to fill your water before arrival as there is no spigot," shares Joey S. about High Bluff Campground.
Amenities and hookups: Gulf View Campground offers full hookups with water views. "Easy to navigate, super clean and well maintained. The view is spectacular. Bathrooms are laid out super nice, clean and comfortable," reports Rhonda S.
Leveling considerations: Prepare for uneven terrain at some sites. "We have a 36 ft Class A with a Cherokee Trailhawk tow and stayed in site 64 for 4 days in mid April. Our site had a little bit of slope side to side, but not too bad," notes Ray & Terri F.
