Best Cabin Camping near Wellington, FL
Jonathan Dickinson State Park offers cabin accommodations within two distinct campground areas near Wellington. The Pine Grove Campground provides cabin rentals with modern amenities including electricity, water hookups, and air conditioning. The River Campground, located approximately four miles into the park along the Loxahatchee River, offers more rustic cabin options. Most cabins include basic furnishings such as beds, tables, and chairs, along with outdoor fire rings and picnic tables. Restroom facilities with showers are centrally located throughout both campgrounds. "I stayed at one of the cabins, and they were a little smelly, and lacked toiletries, but overall not too bad," noted one visitor about the River Campground cabins.
Rustic and deluxe cabins are both available, depending on the location. The West Palm Beach-Lion Country Safari KOA provides family-friendly cabin rentals with greater privacy than tent sites. Sunsport Gardens Family Naturist Resort also offers cabin accommodations in a more specialized setting. Most cabins require advance reservations, particularly during winter months when seasonal visitors from northern states frequently book extended stays. Pet policies vary by location, with Jonathan Dickinson State Park and Lion Country Safari KOA allowing pets in designated cabins. According to one visitor at Lion Country Safari KOA, "This campground that sits just outside of the only drive through animal safari with over 1,000 different types of animals, is great for families to enjoy."
Many cabins require visitors to bring their own linens, towels, and toiletries. Jonathan Dickinson State Park cabins have limited kitchen facilities, so guests should plan to bring cooking supplies and food. The KOA location provides more comprehensive amenities in their cabins, including basic kitchenettes. On-site stores at Jonathan Dickinson State Park and Lion Country Safari KOA offer limited provisions, though selection varies seasonally. One reviewer cautioned about the state park store: "Make sure you have all you need, since the store doesn't really carry anything besides snacks and it closes early anyway." Nearby towns provide full-service grocery stores and camping supplies for longer stays.
