Mammoth Springs Campground sits in St. Joe National Forest outside camping near Avery, accessible via a rough road that warrants a careful approach. The campground runs July through October, has drinking water and toilets, and can accommodate RVs up to 40 feet. It draws ATV and motorized recreation users, so expect engine noise. Hikers and those sensitive to motor traffic may find the surrounding forest a quieter alternative. Pack in extra ground clearance if road conditions have been wet.
