Webster, Florida serves as a gateway to a mix of developed campgrounds and primitive sites, particularly around the Withlacoochee State Forest. Campground options in this central Florida region include established sites like River Junction Campground, which provides tent camping along the Little Withlacoochee River, and Silver Lake Campground, which accommodates both tent and RV campers. The area contains several natural water features that attract campers, with most campgrounds offering convenient access to I-75 while maintaining natural surroundings characterized by oak trees and diverse wildlife habitats.
The Withlacoochee State Forest campgrounds typically provide water hookups and toilets, with some locations offering electric hookups and dump stations for RVs. Road conditions can vary significantly, particularly at River Junction Campground where primitive access roads may present challenges during wet weather. Most tent and RV sites in the region require reservations through state forest systems, though some areas maintain first-come, first-served options. Summer brings higher temperatures and humidity, while winter offers more comfortable camping conditions. A camper noted, "The road in called SW 113 ST was hardcore off road muddy driving. We pay for the sites so the road in could have been a lot less treacherous. Potholes all the way to the site."
Several visitors highlight the natural setting and water access as primary attractions. Camping areas like Crooked River and Cypress Glen offer spaces under mature oak trees providing welcome shade during Florida's warmer months. Sumter Oaks RV Park receives consistent mentions for its wildlife viewing opportunities and green spaces. "The park is very well kept and staff were wonderful. All of our neighbors were very friendly as well, this park really has a great community vibe," reported one reviewer. Seasonal variations affect water levels in the river systems, with one visitor explaining that "Late spring into summer river is high and fast. This time of year low and slow. By March/April its really low." Sites along water features typically fill quickly during peak periods, while more secluded forest locations may offer greater privacy but fewer amenities.

GuideGreat little spot, easy access to silver springs. Glass boat tour was cool - just the right amount of cruising time before little ones breaking points! Ice cream afterwards of course and good local pizza joint.
GuideGreat little spot. Seemed to rain every 5 minutes where they had to shut everything down but had good contingency plans. Golf carts galore with some sites a little more rowdy than the next, but plenty of room. Kids loved the pools and crafts, adults loved the tiki bars and live music.
LegendDelivering a blend of riverside charm and campground convenience to the banks of the St. Johns River, St. Johns River KOA in DeLand, FL is a great find for those looking for everything properly arranged for a riverfront encampment with EZ access to the frackish waters. Located just off State Road 44, it's an easy exit from Orlando or Daytona, but once you're settled, it feels like a peaceful riverfront retreat. First impressions? Pull into a shaded site, breathe in the river air and instantly realize you've landed in a camper’s version of lakeside serenity.
This KOA pulls no punches on amenities. You'll find full RV hookups (30 / 50 amp electric, water, sewer), spacious back-in and pull-through sites that fit up to 80' rigs, clean bathhouses, laundry, Wi Fi, a dog park and a center pavilion. At the water’s edge, there's a marina with boat and kayak rentals, a boat ramp and even a restaurant serving riverfront fare and weekend live music. All the staff you come into contact with here are friendly locals and a relaxed yet well-maintained environment that keeps you both entertained and relaxed. The crown jewel of this place? The Tiki Bar that sits atop John’s River Grille on-site at this location comes with just one rule: don’t show up late for the Happy Hour sundowning sessions!
Where this KOA shines is on the water. The St. Johns River is full of life, so expect to see manatees, turtles, great blue herons and even gators. Kayaking or paddling right from the campground is a breeze, and guided tours offer a closer look at local wildlife and quiet stretches of river. And when you want to stretch beyond the river, historic downtown DeLand, De Leon Springs State Park and the Ocala National Forest are all within easy reach.
Insider Tips? Here’s a smattering: (1) River-view pull-through sites are prime real estate for sunrises and quick water access, so book early for the best sites; (2) Kayak or paddle launch right from the boat ramp for ideal for wildlife spotting and scenic calm; (3) Guided river cruises (available on-site) unlock insider encounters with manatees and osprey at low cost; (4) Prefer quiet? Request a site farther from the pool and marina because foot traffic can rise near those areas; (5) Bugs gather at sunset, so bring repellent for riverside evenings; and (6) Nearby dining options include Shady Oak Restaurant (you could walk to from St. Johns River KOA), Gator Bites, Emmy’s Time Out Tavern for an old school supper club menu or Hyder Head Brewery for locally brewed hops and Haggis.
Happy Camping!
ScoutWe had an awesome time here. The camp hosts were very helpful, professional, and friendly. The bathrooms and showers were exceptional and clean. If someone moved out, within 30 minutes there was someone checking their site for anything they may have left behind. The only complaint I have, is the other campers that let their dogs do their business and not pick it up. This is not a negative against the campground and their employees.
ScoutA very nice campground northwest of Orlando in Apopka. It's near a small airport that only has small planes flying in and out. It's relatively quiet here with access to the major theme parks from the nearby expressway. The staff here are very nice and friendly. I've stayed here on and off for approximately 1 month this summer and plan on coming back here again for the winter.
TravelerOak tree is more of a trailer park home opposed to being a campsite but there are people who live in tents on the property
ScoutI visited Preservation Point in June and really enjoyed the stay. The property is a quiet with a lot of open space and natural scenery. The RV sites were clean, brand new, level, and easy to get set up on. The hookups were simple, and everything felt well laid out with plenty of room for the RV. Gail was very helpful and welcoming, which made the whole experience easy from the start. There is plenty of room to relax, enjoy the wildlife, and take in the natural setting. It is also a nice location for exploring nearby Inverness, the Withlacoochee State Trail, and other Central Florida spots. You can tell the park is still growing, but the foundation is excellent. For anyone looking for a clean, quiet, RV-only place with easy hookups and a peaceful setting, Preservation Point is definitely worth considering.
ScoutGood clean site.
GuideNice state park. Plenty of lakes, but also plenty of gators at this time; hatching season. Wide open space, great roads. Not all sites have sewer hookups, it’s worth finding out which one before booking, if it is important for you. Even glamping tents and cabins are available, cabins are right next to the lake. Swimming area at Lake Louisa has a playground with swings and even a beach/swimming area, but that seems awfully dangerous, given the noises the gators make about 30 feet away. Unfortunately there is not a lot of things to do near the state park if one wants to do anything outside of camping, at least not a lot I could find, maybe you are better at that. Apparently it is very popular with bikers and triathletes, I have seen at least 10 today, using the great roads.

Kayaking the Withlacoochee River: Visitors to River Junction Campground can access multiple paddling routes. "Very cool little place for primitive camping. All the sites are cut out so that you have some privacy from the neighboring sites. There are a couple of sites that you can't reserve, first come first serve, pay in cash at the iron ranger. Site 1 is that way and you could paddle into it. 14 and 16 can be reserved and also paddled into."
Wildlife viewing: The forests and wetlands around Webster host diverse wildlife year-round. At Sumter Oaks RV Park, "This is a visually nice park with a lot of shade, full hook ups, showers and laundry. The big downside is the road is heavily trafficked in the morning by construction type dump trucks. Not bad overall, staff and other campers were friendly which is always a plus. Lots of wildlife and a farm next door with goats and donkeys."
Seasonal river experiences: Water levels change dramatically throughout the year at campsites near Webster, Florida. "We went here after our Hog Island stay this place is pretty nice.
