"If you don't have a RV and can't stay in a tent, then reserve one of their wonderful camping cabins. The one we had is reserved for the disabled and has a large bathroom, a nice size and well equip kitchen, a fire place, and the screened porch with rocking chairs and a swing covers two sides of the cabin," notes one visitor. The spacious cabins accommodate groups of various sizes while providing essential amenities for comfortable stays.

TravelerExtremely run down. Not even close to being a water park. Save your money and go to Splash in Milton or if just passing through stay at The Station across the highway for a better maintained and friendlier environment.
GuideThe park is said to have had damage from a storm. It is a very nice campground but seems to need attention with the bathhouse facilities. They are cleaned but dated with some nonworking fixtures. Drought is very evident at the river. I believe this could be a high rated place with some investment.
GuideThis is an RV resort, I was only there for an overnight but definitely a place to bring the family! They had a cool beach pond, pool, bar/grill, as well as very clean shower and laundry. They do allow custom built RVs as along as your power, water, and sewer are all self contained and hook to their standard systems. I will definitely be back for a longer stay!
GuideFriendly staff. Clean campground. Some pull-thrus. Not gated. We have stayed here multiple times in our 40' motorhome with slides on both sides plus our Jeep. No problems. Recommended
ScoutThe phone number listed directs you to a campsite just up the road, which actually shares the same name as this listing. However, most of the photos shown (up to around photo 22) are of a different campground than where you’ll end up if you book here.
If you follow the booking details, you’ll be taken to a more open RV-style site with many long-term renters, and it does not match the photos provided. The area itself is still nice, and there’s a convenience store nearby with basic supplies.
If you’re specifically looking for the campground shown in the photos, make sure to search for Ichetucknee Springs Campground on Google to find the correct location.
TravelerNice bathrooms and laundry facility. Some short hiking trails and lots of kayaking waterways and launch not far from campground.
LegendIf coming in from the east/Tallahassee on I-10, avoid Exit 241 (Madison/Greenville). Approaching from US-90 requires sharp right turns to reach the campground( CG). Instead, take Exit 251 for an easier left turn onto the CG road. This was our sixth year staying at the resort, and check-in at the office remained the same under the new ownership. After checking in, we proceeded to back-in buddy site 60A with full hookups to meet friends in site 60. One change involved the golf process, as we needed to go to the golf course clubhouse to pay for a golf package, then return to the office to pick up a golf cart. Water pressure was acceptable at around 40 psi. Cell service showed 3 bars on T-Mobile and 2 bars on Verizon. CG Wi-Fi was on the slower side with download speeds around 7 Mbps, so we relied on T-Mobile Home Internet, which consistently delivered speeds in the 200 Mbps range. The CG has relatively few trees, so satellite service was not an issue. The local Winn-Dixie has closed, leaving Bob& Jim’s Market as the primary grocery option in town, with Dollar General carrying a limited selection of basics. Prices at Bob& Jim’s were on the higher side. An Aldi was renovating the former Winn-Dixie building during our stay and was expected to open in about six months. For broader shopping and services, the nearest major amenities are in Live Oak, about 30 miles away. During our two-month stay, we learned that the new ownership planned to renovate the golf course and facilities into an executive 9-hole course, with construction scheduled to begin April 14, 2026, and a projected reopening in the fall or winter timeframe. Plans also included removing the first two holes near the entrance to add additional RV sites, bringing the total site count to around 200. Based on our experience, we plan to return again next year.
LegendAfter deciding to move on from a few rougher nearby options in nearby Folkston, we pulled into Okefenokee Pastimes and immediately felt like we had chosen wisely, with a tidy layout, clear signage and an inviting A-frame office greeting us upon entry that sits just minutes from the Okefenokee National Wildlife Refuge. The campground offers full hook-up RV sites along with primitive tent spots, but what really caught our eye were the newly erected yurts on site that looked clean, cozy, and thoughtfully designed, complete with little porches that made our boys quietly ask us whether we could swap the camper for one of those yurts instead! Amenities felt intentional and family-friendly, including a small onsite restaurant, bathhouse facilities and EZ access to guided boat tours into the swamp. Everything here appeared well-maintained without feeling overly commercial. We enjoyed a relaxed lunch right there at the restaurant, where the boys happily refueled while Dad stood marveling at the surprisingly solid lineup of IPA beers before choosing a local Georgia brew to go with his meal. Afterwards, we wandered the grounds together talking about gators and birds we hoped to spot the next morning. From what we saw, the best campsites are those tucked slightly toward the back edge of the property where it feels quieter and less exposed, offering a bit more breathing room for families. I would absolutely recommend Okefenokee Pastimes for families because of its proximity to the refuge, its welcoming and cleaner atmosphere and the added charm of those tempting new yurts that just might win you over next time.
RangerAfter exploring the museum, enjoying the nature trails, enjoy some fishing, or bird watching along the river. See where the river sinks( ends) and look for the turtles in the water. The campsites are shaded, level and qell kept. Bathrooms are clean, handicapped accessable, and conviently located. Pets welcome, families welcome. Big rigs may find the campground roads tight, but there are multiple sites available for big rigs. Be aware there are trees along the roads, so be aware of any lower branches.
