this lovely little campground is a work in progress. They are diligently working on beach repairs from Hurricane Sally. Just in the week we were there, they had almost finished rebuilding the sea wall and back filling sand. its a quiet resort with shade trees and gravel/sand sites. It is a little tight, but you arent packed in like sardines as one reviewer stated. The staff were very nice. Two friendly kitties wander the campground. It is next to a busy road and you have a little buffer with a fence and trees, but still noisy. The beach is narrow, but perfect for little kids and enough room for chairs. Bathrooms and showers were clean. Games in play area, need equipment so you can play. I suggest having guests check out the equipment for use so nothing goes missing.

There are few campgrounds in the Tallahassee area, that keep you close to town. This is one of them and has been around for many years. They have a lot of full timers here, so there isn’t a lot of openings for those wishing to stay a few nights. We stayed here for 2 nights and then came back a wk later for longer to visit family. the first time they put us at a site that had the dumpster just outside our door.Site 46. Dont do it. When we returned for our longer stay, again she tried to put us at site 46 and I refused. She said she only had one other open, site 44 which is by the road. It is a very busy road with lots of noise, but it was better than being by the dumpster and I wanted to be near town. Nice shade trees with the squirrels dropping acorns on our roof all day.

Stayed here for a week and enjoyed the peace and quiet. It is close to Townsend and Gailinburg as well as Pigeon Forge. Took a lot of day hikes. Have full hookups and large spacious gravel lots with picnic tables and fire rings. Some shade. The only down side is the pool is not in the camping area. It’s one road over. The weather was cool so we did not have an opportunity to visit there. Staff at the front office were very nice.

We spent a few days at Wax while heading home. It was quiet, even with all the boat traffic and kids. Lots are gravel and decent size. The area surrounds Lake Nolan, which is an added bonus. The water was warm and calm. It is off the beaten path and you are about 30 min from a grocery store, so make sure you stock up before you go. There are several road side veggie stands where you can get fresh from the ground veggies. There are no laundry services and the trash cans are by the dump station. They have late check in and check out (5p)which is nice if you wanted to spend the morning on the lake or hiking. The long and winding roads to get there are lovely. Watch out for the Amish buggies.

Don’t expect anyone to greet you at the ranger station. It is unmanned. Sites have your parking pass clipped to the post. Gravel, mostly flat, pads with lots of shade trees. Very quiet. Sits on Lake Nolan, which is huge. Loved paddle boarding in the early morning before the boat traffic got going. Water was very warm. Warning…there are no trash cans on the sites. Also there is no laundry service either.

A large campground with water and electric. Few sites have sewer. You have the option of paved parking lot or on the grass. We chose the grass for the shade trees. Very quiet. Not too close to your neighbor. Take time to walk around the fairgrounds as they are pretty. The 4H building has a lovely garden out front. The grounds keepers were busy getting ready for the state fair in a couple weeks. There is a farmers market every Thursday which was nice. Got some wonderful sweet corn and vine ripe tomatoes. The dump station does not have hose hook up for water. There is water but you can’t hook a hose to it. That needs to be fixed as you cant wash down your spills or rinse your tank.

Stayed the night on our way to Springfield. The campground has pull thru sites with water and electric only. Some shade trees and sites are gravel. This use to be a golf course and the cart paths are now walking trails. Be careful as the paths are in poor condition with cave ins in some areas and they arent blocked off.

This was our first time to Noccalula State Park. The park is an urban oasis just outside of Gadsden. It is gated. The campground has concrete pads, mostly back in, some shade trees, little grass around the camp sites. Can get very muddy during rains. All have picnic tables and scattered grills. The campground backs up to a public bike/hike trail which gives you easy access to the trails and hike to the falls. There are two hiking paths to get to the falls. If you go from the campground it is muddy, rocky, but a good hike. Stay on the high path! Rocks are very slippery behind and around the falls. If you take the train to the other side of the falls, its an easier hike. There is a suspension bridge that is 0.2 miles from the walking trail on the campground side. It is worth the hike. FYI, look up on the rocks as you get to the stairs to the bridge. There is a huge hornets/wasp nest on the rocks. If you take the trail across the suspension bridge, you have about a 1 mile hike back to the park. It’s rocky and muddy, so wear good tennis shoes for support. We took our 8 and 4 yr old grandsons. They were tired by the end. Thank heavens for the train to take us back to the other side of the falls to the campground. We didn’t have a ticket and they let us ride anyway as our boys were exhausted! There is a petting zoo and old village on the other side of the falls from the campground. It is a ticketed site. The walking trail back us to the campground and is well used. It is well marked, gravel trail. Worth a walk. The campground has a pool. You need wrist bands to enter, so get those at the front office. Really impressed with this campground even though our weather was rainy. Would like to come back at some point

Stayed for a weekend to go scalloping. Sites are flat and gravel and you have plenty of room to maneuver and back in. No shade. The sites are close together, so your slide is right next to your neighbors table. Your sewer drain is also next to their table. Not ideal. Fairly quiet campground with only 15 sites. Has a large pool with a covered deck. The WiFi is terrible at 2G. Don’t count on using any internet or downloads. Water pressure is good. No-see-ums were bad. The check in process was easy and friendly folks. Would come again. Get site 6 as it is the only one with potential shade.

Stayed here for 5 days in the heat of summer. Located just outside of Sarasota and on the edge of Nokomis. Very “old Florida” with lots of palm hammocks and scrub oaks. Cant say. Much about the creek running behind out site as you really couldn’t see it. Most of the sites are decent size. Gotta dodge the trees at some sites. Very quiet. Only has one dump station… needs 2 for a campground this size. RV’s were lined up early morning. Great hiking and a paved bike trail which was really nice. Takes about 20” to get to down town Sarasota. Close enough to Myakka State Park for a day trip.

Was fortunate to find a spot a Wekiva Falls for the weekend, last minute. Needed a place to stay to go to the Winter Park Art Fest. The people at check in were extremely friendly and had great customer service. They actually have someone guide you to your camp site and help you back in. They then review all the rules of the resort, show you how to hook up to electric/water/sewer. More than helpful. They were up front and honest about the crowds to be expected for the weekend and the noise/partying. He was right about that. Our site was across the street from the lagoon and on Saturday there was a DJ blasting music all days. I don’t think everyone in the campground should have to be subject to the music. It stopped at 5pm. Friday night the campground was noisy, but it quieted down by 10:30pm. Lots of kids, golf carts and people having fun. Not much in the way of shade trees. There are some palm trees scattered throughout. Most sites are back in. Sites are level and there is a concrete pad with a picnic table. Not all sites have fire rings. There is a dog park, cafe, food trucks on Sat. Great place for families. There was a strong sulfur smell around our site. Not sure where that was coming from

This RV park is in a great location near the outlet malls. All sites were pull through gravel full hook ups. For as crowded as the place was it was very quiet. There is a dog park and a basketball court.

We were nestled in a palm Hamic at the back of the campground with no one around us. The campsite was well lit and they were lights on the electric box which was nice.Not too far of a walk to the beach but if you have young children bikes or a wagon is a good idea or you can drive. The campground was very quiet at night. Plenty of hoot owl’s to lull you to sleep.
