Best Glamping near Youngstown, FL

Topsail Hill Preserve State Park Campground and Twin Lakes Camp Resort house some of the Florida Panhandle's most distinctive glamping accommodations near Youngstown. Topsail Hill features glamping tents with full hookups, cable television, and access to a non-heated swimming pool, while Twin Lakes surrounds guests with lakefront views from their glamping tents. Both locations offer a significant upgrade from traditional camping with amenities like climate-controlled bathhouses, picnic tables, and fire rings. The glamping tents at Twin Lakes are particularly noteworthy for their lakeside setting, providing direct water access. St. Joseph Peninsula State Park and Emerald Coast RV Beach Resort also provide glamping options with varying levels of luxury and comfort. One guest shared, "Lake surrounds all sites. Beautiful setting, private baths, huge amenities center. Fishing and glamping tents."

Sand Pond Campground in Pine Log State Forest and Vortex Spring provide additional glamping experiences with unique natural features. At Vortex Spring, glamping sites are primarily set up around scuba diving activities with a dive shop on site. Visitors can explore the spring's crystal-clear waters, use the slides, or simply relax at their glamping accommodation. The parks offer miles of hiking and biking trails, with Topsail Hill Preserve featuring over 16 miles of trails and a tram service to 3.2 miles of pristine white sandy beaches. Fishing enthusiasts appreciate the coastal dune lakes scattered throughout the region, which are described as "a globally rare ecosystem occurring in only a handful of places around the world." According to a camper, "These are the nicest beaches on the Emerald Coast! The campsites are nicest on the very back loop but you need to reserve at 11 months out! The trolley will take you to the beach, runs every 30 minutes or you can bike or walk."

    Topsail Hill Preserve State Park Campground

    Beautiful sites

    I have been volunteering here and the sites are beautiful. There is a tram that takes you to the beach and there are over 16 miles of hiking and biking trails. Restrooms are clean and climate controlled. All sites are full hookup with cable. The camp store rents bikes, kayaks, etc. and has a wonderful coffee shop. There is live music every Monday outside of the coffee shop.

    Great camping, super close to the beach and the bay!

    St Joseph Peninsula State Park on Cape San Blas is a great spot. We tent camped for 4 days and loved it! Bathhouse is air conditioned, sites are large and most have ample shade. Easy walk to the beach and the bay is also close for paddling and fishing! Wonderful very secluded beach and shells galore!

    Best Beaches in Florida

    These are the nicest beaches on the Emerald Coast! The campsites are nicest on the very back loop but you need to reserve at 11 months out! Summer months are very hot and humid- we enjoy October and Early spring the most. The trolley will take you to the beach, runs every 30 minutes or you can bike or walk. The bath houses are very clean and air conditioned if you visit in hot months. The walking trails are great or if you prefer biking you can ride for miles and miles along the coast. There are some in campground but I suggest leaving campground for long rides. You have access to close by grocery stores- Walmart- Publix. We go every year and love this park. It’s got everything if you love the beach!

    Topsail Hill Preserve State Park Campground

    Favorite Coastal Campground

    Topsail Hill Preserve State Park is one of our top 5 parks we like to frequent. We were able to watch for reservations online and scored a site for ten days in late November. The sites are paved and level with full hookups (50amp electrical service, water and sewer). A paradise for those with large rigs. There’s foliage between each site providing adequate privacy from your neighbors. This is a great campground for walking/biking as many neighbors have their favorite decorations out. All sites are marked clearly with excellent lit signage throughout the park to provide directions. There are spherical lamp posts scattered every few sites to provide ambient lighting. The staff is informative and humorous at times. There were weekly nature series led by park rangers. Restrooms and laundry facilities were immaculate. There’s even a butterfly garden with a bench nearby the laundry house. Minimal highway noise can be heard from the sites. The most prominent sounds are those from the Air Force base nearby. Be sure to bring a bike to explore the park and access the freshwater coastal lakes. It is a long walk to the beach. We opted for the complimentary tram. During your visit be sure to stop by the Donut Shop about 5 minutes from the park, an excellent location for breakfast. Be sure to be there at opening as it can become quite crowded.

    Three Rivers State Park Campground

    A Great Florida State Park

    Small, well maintained park and sites, with 30/50 amp and water hook ups. A pleasant surprise when we arrived, after miles of rural driving! GPS took us the correct way, but seemed we were lost! Staff greeted us at entrance, gave us a map and explained how to get to our site. It was raining, and our site was back-in and downhill, mostly level with gravel, a picnic table, has a fire-ring with grill grate. Bathhouse is clean and impressed how the trash area and dump station were placed away from campers. The dock/pier, and boat ramp, are at the back part of the campground, The amenities are nice and there is outdoor cleaning sink behind the bathhouse, sitting area overlooking the river, the fish cleaning station, fire pit area, trails, and canoe/kayak drying area. 3 concrete sites, as well as tent sites. Lots of spacing between most of the sites, some are waterfront. Wildlife is plentiful and the trails are a great way to enjoy it all! We will come back! And it’s only $20 a night!

    Florida Caverns RV Resort

    Nice Stay

    We stayed here for two nights/three days of a ten day trip. It was hands-down the nicest of the locations. Clean, concrete pads, excellent location and good wi-fi that was not up-charged. The pool area was nice and clean. Service and staff were excellent/friendly and they escorted us to our site upon arrival. They also have trash pickup at your site daily. We saw a security truck drive through several times and had no problems from our neighbors. The location near the water cannot be beat. We were located near the docks and I was able to launch my paddle board easily. The water was gorgeous and clear on the adjacent spring/pond. Our AT&T cell service was good. 

    My only(very minor) complaints are that there are very few trees or shaded areas at this location and it would have been nice to have the fire pits included at the site. We did not spend any time sitting outside our camper and we only did about ten minutes in the dog park because of the sun, but then again, it's Florida in July in an area that's still recovering from tornadoes and a major hurricane. And by the time we thought it had cooled off enough to enjoy s'mores in the evening, the office had long since closed so we couldn't rent a fire pit. We have family that we visit often in the area, so we will definitely stay here again! We camped at Florida Caverns RV Resort at Merritt's Mill Pond in a Travel Trailer.

    Florida Caverns RV Resort

    Awful

    We called ahead to reserve tent sites and ensure they had electric and water on every site. Upon arrival, we were told all sites to the right edge (water side) and right of the road were tent sites. However, the first half of this row has electric for rv’s only. Moving down the row, the sites had no electric or water hookups. The last sites were in complete sun and next to a boat ramp. All the sites had trash on the ground and none had picnic tables. The showers were just curtained off from the bathroom with no privacy, hook or bench. The staff was unwilling to help and we left without staying.
