The campground consists of 30 sites nestled among towering longleaf pine, magnolia trees and Atlantic white cedar. The Magnolia Loop features a playground that is easily viewed from most of the sites in the loop. The sites range from fully shaded to sunny.
Each campsite has 20, 30 and 50 amp electric service, potable water connections, RV sewer hookup, picnic table, fire ring and grill. The sites can accommodate all types of tent camping and 50-foot RVs. A playground is available for the kids.
From the campground, the Juniper Lake Trail opens up to the unspoiled beauty of the Blackwater River for hikers, beachgoers and anglers. A well-maintained restroom with showers is located between the two loops and is accessible via boardwalk from each camping loop.
Pets are welcome in designated areas.
A dump station is located on the campground road.
Maximum RV length = 50 ft.
Beautiful off the beaten path park with lots of shade, and surrounded by nature. There are two very nice full service restrooms, an outdoor shower for rinsing off, and a pavillion with a couple of barbecue grills. The river is shallow and perfect for wading and cooling off.
We visited mid-morning on a Saturday in early summer and then were only a few other families there. About an hour north of Fort Walton Beach.
Great little get away for the kids. Private little sandy beach on the river, nice walking trail, several pavilions with grills, clean facilities for restrooms. There are signs to watch for alligators and bears. The far right side of the beach seemed a little sketchy with murky water but for the most part it was clear. It says no pets on the beach also.
A great park! Large sites, level sites, clean and spacious. On our way back to Washington State and randomly picked this park. Walking trail to the river, enough space to park a car next to your rig. 20/30/50 amp electrical, water hookup and sewer. They even have posts with string to hold you clothes to dry. Boardwalks going around the campgrounds along with trails. Paths down to a beautiful river. Amazing place. Next time we will make this a destination. The only downside is it’s off the beaten path. But it’s worth it! The ranger was very friendly, helpful and cordial. Another perk…the ranger comes to your site, the next morning at 8:00am, to collect bags of garbage you put out at the road!
Smaller campground with about 30 FHU sites. Sites are level, spacious and well kept. Electric is 30&50 amp. Picnic table, grill and fire ring at each site. Lots of hiking, kayaking and swimming available. Beautiful area.
