A nice Florida Park

We were lucky enough to snag 3 days in May at this state park. It was a great stop if too short to really enjoy the amenities and just relax.  Sites are mostly back-in, main park roads were in good shape, but the campground roads were rutty and tough.  Camp sites were spacious with packed sand and dirt, and usually some foliage between sites.  We were at the Amelia River campground which appears to be the older of the two campgrounds in the park.  Plenty of beach area, sunset views, biking, and hiking.  Do take time to visit Fort Clinch for its historical perspective.  Fernandina Beach is right outside the park gate, but you would never know it from the campground locations.  Very private and quiet.  Bath houses were very convenient and well maintained.

A plesant Suprise and great stop

We 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.

Very nice and worth and extended stay

We stopped here on our way south to Florida out of curiosity.  Earlier in the year, we had been in Cordele to ride the SAM Railway which was based next to the park and had decided to stop on our way back through and check out the campground.  The GVSP is well maintained with alot of open space, lake access and a historical museum honoring Georgia Veterans.  The camping area is spacious with back in and pull through sites.  The roadways were narrow and paved with the sites being gravel and level in most cases.  Sites along the lakefront are a bit more expensive but the lake can be viewed from any site.  Shower houses are cleaned daily by camp hosts and are well maintained.  We were advised by another camper that sites fill up quickly on weekends but are usually available during the week.  We only spent 2 nights (on a whim) but will return for a longer stay in the future.  A great area for biking, fishing and boating.

A very nice stop

This was our first stop on a 2-week circuit through TN, GA and FL.  We stayed for two nights while attending the National Cornbread Festival in S. Pittsburgh, TN.  The campground has been around for a long time and shows that the owners take great pride in maintaining the property while expanding the camp footprint.  We were at site #22, graveled and level.  There was enough room between sites to not feel like you were on top of each other.  We were impressed with the amenities for families, the office/store had recently been expanded and renovated and a great bathroom/shower/laundry area had been added.  All very well maintained on a daily basis.
