Womack Creek Campground — Tate's Hell State Forest

4 ReviewsAdd Review

Within Tate's Hell State Forest, Womack Creek Campground provides both RV and tent camping with direct creek access in Florida's second-largest state forest. The campground sits along Womack Creek with a boat ramp, offering water-based recreation in this 200,000-acre wilderness area managed by the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services.

Sites 28-40 accommodate RVs with electric hookups, while most other sites serve tent campers only. The setting features tall pines and saw palmetto on flat, sandy terrain accessible via forest service roads. Julia F. notes "had electric at my campsite, but no water," and mentions that non-potable water taps are available at neighboring sites, though not clearly marked. A single restroom facility provides one toilet, sink, and shower with low water pressure.

Campers can explore the forest via numerous sandy roads that serve as informal walking trails. The area attracts birdwatchers during spring migration, with Northern Parula and white-eyed vireos commonly observed. Several reviewers mention the importance of following specific directions rather than relying solely on GPS, with one suggesting the Rock Landing route via Highway 68 for easier access. Nearby options include Ochlockonee River State Park Campground and other forest sites for those exploring the broader region.

Many campers appreciated the rustic natural setting and immaculate facilities at this state forest location. Guests commonly noted excellent hospitality from hosts and good access to water activities, though GPS navigation can be challenging.

Sites are well spaced, lovely setting, potable water questionable

Stayed in the area with campsites 28-40, I was in Campsite #38 with my 26' travel trailer. Most other campsites for tents only. Drive in was good with flat sandy roads, not too bumpy. The setting is beautiful among tall pines and saw palmetto. Only one bathroom, having a 1 toilet and sink with low water pressure and a shower.  Fairly clean.  Had electric at my campsite, but no water.  

Website says "non-potable water available nearby", but it was not clear where.  I found a two taps on the neighboring campsite, but they were not labeled if the water was potable or not. 

Walking trails from the campite were not apparent, but I walked some of the many flat sandy forest service roads. Came during early spring migration for songbirds, and heard Northern Parula and resident white-eyed vireos, but the weather was not prime for fall outs. Had a few 80+ F days in late March, but otherwise beautiful weather. Loved the sound of the breeze in the trees.  I would come again but with my fresh tank filled to  meet my needs.  

On Saturday my neighbor had their music playing a little too loud, but other than that I enjoyed a quiet stay.

Tate’s Hell Womack Creek

Booked for one night at Tate’s Hell Womack Creek, and we will be back! This is a great location for people who truly love nature, and the water. Don’t take the dirt road all the way there, keep going on hey 68 until you get to Rock Landing on the right, then take that road down to Jeff Sanders, take that left, it’s easier that way rather than taking the dirt road all the way. Campsites are not that big, and moderately close together. However, the facilities were immaculate, and the campground hosts were beyond hospitable, and friendly. Would recommend for people who like to tent/car camp, kayak, fish, boat, anything truly nature related!

Primitive, rustic, and deserving of its name.

At over 200,000 acres, Tate's Hell is the second largest State Forest in Florida, second only to Blackwater River State Forest in Santa Rose County. That's Hell is located off of U>S> Highway 98 in  Franklin County, between the Apalachicola and Ochlockonee rivers. Check out The Ledgend of Tate's Hell on the State Forest webpage, https://www.fdacs.gov/Forest-Wildfire/Our-Forests/State-Forests/Tate-s-Hell-State-Forest.

For roughing it in the woods, nothing I have found beats Tate's Hell. With 36 primitive campgrounds (tent space, fire ring, and picnic table) with multiple campsites and 4 campgrounds with facilities (restrooms and some RV sites) there is plenty of room to camp and explore Tate's Hell.

The Womack Creek campground, where I spent one night, has both RV and tent campsites and a boat ramp with access to Womack Creek. 

Recreation opportunities include the High Bluff Coastal Hiking Trail which is part of the Forest Service's Trailwalker Program.

Womack Creek - one of many within Tate’s Hell Forest

$33 for one night, $22 plus reservation fees & taxes. Hard to find on gps, use directions from your reservation confirmation email. Moving on. Lovely site, this has electricity but fairly rustic apart from that. Would return.
