A 375 acre lake is popular with boaters and skiers, and fishing for bass, crappie, catfish and bream is excellent. Paddlers can rent canoes and kayaks to explore this beautiful lake lined with fragrant water lilies and tupelo trees. Guided pontoon boat tours are sometimes offered during events. The beachside pavilion, picnic shelters and group shelters are scenic spots for parties, reunions and other celebrations. Reed Bingham is less than six miles from I-75, making it a relaxing stop for travelers. It was named for Amos Reed Bingham who was instrumental in having the park established.
Visitors to this pretty park usually see abundant wildlife, including species such as gopher tortoises, yellow bellied sliders and indigo snakes. Nesting bald eagles are often seen in winter. American alligators are often seen sunning along the lake’s edge. During winter, thousands of “buzzards,” actually black vultures and turkey vultures, roost in the trees and soar overhead. Nearly 80 percent of the Coastal Plain’s plant community can be found along the park’s Coastal Plain Nature Trail, making this park’s habitat some of the most diverse in the country.

It’s quiet, peaceful. Sites are large, fire rings, picnic tables, grass! Not well lit, no bath house, no propane, no pool. They have plenty of ideas though.

Site was level with full hookups right off the freeway.
Legend
I imagine that Suwannee Music Park Campground was borne out of the wonderful brainchild idea of someone who was fortunate enough to attend the original Woodstock back in ’69 and after leaving the upstate NY experience, woke up 3,000 miles away here on the shores of the Suwannee and said to themselves,“hey, why not try to create that experience here in NW Florida?!” And thus, this nature-embracing outdoor musical playground was given birth.
Let’s begin with the sheer size of this place: with 800+ acres and over 600 campsites to choose from, this thickly wooded sprawling campground expanse is massive. And when it comes to the camping itself, no matter what type you might be thinking of - from RV and 5th Wheelers to those towing Horse Trailers and, Primitive Camping and Treehouses as well as Cabins for lease, every type of outdoor camping is offered here.
The major attraction here, apart from the live music performances that get booked very frequently in this camping outpost, is the direct access you’ll have to the historic Cypress tree-lined Suwannee River, which is nothing short of fantastic if you enjoy paddling a kayak or canoe. If you are looking for something just as active but different, there’s a dedicated disc golf course as well as endless miles of trails, perfect for hiking and biking.
Other amenities include: horse stables, children’s playground, covered pavilions, a bird sanctuary, chapel, small lake with fishing dock (catch & release only), bat house (apparently the largest in the US), tree house, craft village, boat launch, barn museum, drum circle, horse wash / manure disposal, arcade game room with pinball machine, live music pavilions, shelters, potable water stations, karaoke, riverside beach, viewable bee hives, golf cart rental, designated dump stations, WiFi, on-site cafe and general store (firewood, ice, beer, T-shirts, hats and caps), bar and music hall, pickin’ shed, geocaching, rock waterfall, first aid stations, swimming pool (that also serves up ice cream and pizza poolside), multiple music stages, restrooms and shower facilities and Suwannee River dock. For the RV crowd, Suwanee Music Park offers 20 / 30 / 50 amp electric, water and sewage hook-ups.
Insider’s tips? Here’s a handful: (1) Despite being pretty far removed from civilization for those really wanting to embrace a nice chunk of untouched nature, I have to admit this place was overwhelmed with golf carts when we visited, which really takes away from the ambiance of being out in nature in the first place IMHO. Many times this place felt more like the Villages (the world's largest and most well-heeled retirement community located south of here in central Florida) than a remote camping outpost; (2) Should you need anything, the town of Live Oak is just a 20 minute drive south of here wherein you’ll find just about everything you are looking for, including a Busy Bee for excellent bathrooms, showers and laundry facilities, Walmart Supercenter and Publix for groceries as well as just OK restaurants like Beef ‘O’ Brady’s, Zaxby’s and a Waffle House, but for actual really good food, keep on heading south to the center of town where you’ll find Big Wood BBQ & Grill, The 406 or Brown Lantern; (3) If you were fascinated by the drama, murder and mayhem on the Netflix series Tiger King, then head south of Live Oak to Mystic Jungle where you can see all of their amazing wild cats that normally you would only be able to see while on safari; (4) For my primitive tent pitching bredren, of all the amazing places to consider here, I would strongly recommend those primitive camping spots that are either located near the Bat House over just north and west of Farm Field or the primitive camping sites just east of Spirit Lake; (5) Only downsides include: very overcrowded in some places, lots of bugs (so be sure to bring the Citronella!), uneven land to pitch a tent in the primitive camping area, RV sites are pretty close to one another, WiFi is intermittent and weak in many places, ‘golf carts gone wild’ scenarios, lots of restrictions and rules (destroys that Woodstock vibe I thought we would find here), dated bathrooms will take you back to the 1970s; (6) Upsides include: incredibly friendly staff, very close to Highway 10 making this spot very easy and quick to access, incredibly well-stocked general store; and (7) For best bat viewing, come at dusk to watch them leave by the tens of thousands turning the sky dark, and then come before dawn to watch them all return while sipping your Americano in a lawn chair.
Happy Camping!

We enjoyed this campground (CG) as this was our 4th year coming back. There is plenty of signage and GPS takes you right to the CG. You turn left after the railroad tracks that will take you around the golf course, past the clubhouse, and to the check-in office. Do not go to the clubhouse to register, it is a small parking lot not suitable for RVs. After we checked in, we proceeded to buddy sites 60 and 60A. We easily backed into 60A and set up for our two-month stay. Madison had a rough 2023 with hurricane damage that was still being cleaned up when we arrived in mid-February. Our nightly rate is based on the monthly rate and golf package. We enjoyed golfing on their 9-hole course. WiFi is better than normal for this sized CG and we got two bars on Verizon. We had clear shots of the southern or northern sky for satellite and several OTA channels. On the back of the office are showers and a laundry room with 4 washers and 4 dryers. Firewood& propane were available and included propane pickup(set the tank at the end of your site) and firewood delivery if requested. The CG has a nice mix of back-in and pull-thru sites. Our buddy site was spacious, but we would rate the other sites as"nearby." They also have three cabins for rent. This CG is not a kids’ destination(big pro for us) as there is no playground nor much to do for the young ones. The CG is more adult-oriented with a pickleball court and activities such as group walks or special events like golf tournaments/leagues, karaoke, game nights, and potlucks. There is a large(about 2 acres) fenced dog park with a fenced-off area for small dogs. If you are allergic to train noise, a train track is adjacent to the CG. Trains run periodically normally during the day. Otherwise, this is a quiet park considering its size.

Really liked this campground, I would return. Nice walking trails And you can also kayak down the river. Bathrooms are clean and kept up. I stayed in site 9 - it was a pull thru and very shady with a nice area in the back. Would choose that site again. Did put up the screen over the table as the gnats are fierce. Mosquitoes were there but not that bad
Guide
Chris was very welcoming when we arrived. Got a beautiful ahaded spot in an end and right across from the site.as a beautiful field our dog, Blaze, really enjoyed. The pool was open and already in use. Wevwill be back again.
Ranger
Selected campground based on proximity to interstate. Loud traffic drove us to stay inside our camper instead of enjoying outside.
Site was unlevel and took three boards to fix side to side, disconnected from TV to fix fore/aft. Concrete pad was all the way forward on the site while connections were over midway back making it so we couldn’t use both easily. Had to park father back to reach connections which was where the site dropped off (causing us to use extra boards to level). We moved the picnic table back towards the camper, otherwise it would have been by our truck’s doors.
Bathrooms were clean, but dated with rusty stall doors. Be aware there are speed humps throughout the campground. No fire pit on our site, but other sites had them. Not sure if we were allowed a fire as such.
For overnight guests, I would recommend asking for sites up near the front of the park, as they appeared newer and more level, although less trees. I would avoid the row next to the bathrooms on the far side of the lake as they appeared to be the most unlevel, like the one we chose based on the website (site 41). Be aware that some of the outer ring sites in the wooded area on the far side are pull-in sites, not pull-thru or back-in, which could make it challenging if you want to drop your trailer and leave.
We would stay again in a pinch, but this isn’t a destination.
Ranger
This place is immaculate. The sites are quite large compared to Loves RV stop- at least double the size. The entire place is smoothly paved except for the nice patches of grass attached to each site. The check in is easy and it feels very safe inside the gates. It is a very short walk to food and convenience. Our boys enjoyed riding scooters and playing tag. As the name suggests, this is the perfect overnight spot when you are on your way to or from Florida. Booking is easy. It's a great place to walk around and admire all the fancy RVs as well!
Traveler
Humble and super hospitable super friendly people they've got baby goats donkeys horses chicken that roam free during the day and at night the donkey keep predators away so it's super safe and quiet if you don't mind the roosters😆
It's 2 nights free $10 after with no electric or stay primitive for however long and 15 a night electric I believe we stayed in primitive but my brother helped do some construction for them helped finalize a house they started working on too long ago so they could sell and make a profit
Scout
Stopped here late on our way to Tennessee. Camp hosts Rita and Jim made sure we got to our site and we were settled in . We will definitely be staying again!!
ScoutMy family and I stayed here our first night with a camper without any camping experience. The facilities were great and hooking up was a breeze! I will be going back for a more extended stay but we just wanted to spend a night away with our new camper for this one.
Guide
We loved this park. Our site was level and somewhat secluded with heavy vegetation between sites where we were. Site 6 is a pull-thru, level, 50 amp and water. No sewer. The park has great museums with very interesting history about Stephen Foster and the park itself.
Our primary reason for staying here was to paddle the Suwanee River. There is a local outfitter that will provide shuttle service if you have your own boats or they do have rentals available. We did the short trip due to time considerations, but thoroughly enjoyed the paddle.
We did eat at Fat Belly's in White Springs. It was good, reasonably priced and convenient.
We only stayed two nights, but would plan to stay longer if we get by this way again.
RangerThey don’t really have an office. It’s an odd arrangement. I had picked site 11 but she said we’d wouldn’t fit. When going on line it asks what type and length your RV is so I thought any would fit since it didn’t say otherwise. But she put us in a larger site. It was fairly easy getting into the site. Early evening another 5th wheel pulled in next to us so made it pretty tight. We had only a few inches from each others slides. They are tight spots. There was no place to really park our truck so my husband parked part of it under the front of the camper in order to stay off the grass. Later we had a knock at the door and she said he had to move the truck as it was in the way of traffic coming in the park. Only place to park it was in the site next to us that was already utilized but it was a van type camper. Not sure where we would have parked if it had been filled with a regular sized RV. Our camper is 42’ and it took up the entire space. The people next to us had a car behind their 5th wheel and a small trailer attached to it. Both stuck out in the road behind us. If you don’t have the room to accommodate a 42’ 5th wheel that you know will have a truck with it then don’t take one that large!!! When we left this morning there were a lot of campers there and a few vehicles parked along the street. We had no issues pulling out of the site.

TravelerWe were looking for a stopover in northern Florida and discovered this great little park while reading camping reviews. The previous reviews were spot on, and we found the owners to be great folks who are chasing their dream of a great camping facility. It seems to be in the middle of nowhere when you look at the map, but we found it to be a great jumping off point for day visits to the different States Parks and Springs in the area. Roadways and lots were graveled but sites were level and well maintained. There is no bath house at this time, but the owners have plans to eventually build one. The park has power, water and sewer hookup at each site. Most sites are pull-thru with plenty of personal space. The only downside would be the lack of shad, but trees have been planted. A word of advice for those using google maps or gps, the entrance is off the main highway, not a narrow lane at the back of the property. We definitely will return in the future.
TravelerI love everything about this place. The trails & the river are amazing. Very laid back vibe.
Guide
This place has some rude and unwelcoming staff. The lady who checked us in must not realize she works in the hospitality industry. It’s listed as a KOA “Holiday” but it must have been given that designation a very long time ago. All the amenities are very dated. The sites are narrow and very close together. Would not recommend.
GuideWe do not like traveling far off our route to stop for the night. We also prefer to pay for FHU and this was $42 for us with military discount. This park is literally 1/4 mile off of I-10 (you hear the traffic, which did not bother us). The spots are a little tight, but there were a lot of vacant spots so we did not feel crowded. A dog run and nice big mowed field were available for our dogs. Not much immediately nearby, but the town of Monticello is about 4 miles north of the park with a Winn Dixie and other small merchants. A simple overnight stop along I-10. we would stop here again. A single washer ($2.00) and dryer ($1.50) was helpful. If you can get spot #1, that's what I would ask for. Safe Travels.
Guide
The restrooms and showers were nice and clean. There was only one picnic table in a tent area, and it was not in good shape. The road noise and night made it difficult to sleep at night
LegendPull thru site 2. Very shady and plenty of room. Restrooms and showers directly behind us, very clean and well maintained. Walked to the museum, learned a lot about Stephen Foster and all his music. Great park.
Traveler
This campground has so much to offer for the kids. Between fishing, the pool, the water park, mining for gems and the 3 playgrounds around the park our son didn’t run out of activities. That’s not to mention to activities the campground plans for the weekends that they write on a board each morning with the times.
TravelerThere's a water slide pool and lazy river. Cabins are pretty nice, there are atv trails if you have your own atv. You can rent golf carts, there's a store, games (not all of them work tho) pool table. Lots of fun for the whole family. Some of the staff had attitudes when we were there but still had a great time
LegendSite 35 FHU 50 amp All shade Pull through
