Beautiful camping area for those on the Suwannee River. Bathrooms with showers on site. Pavilions with tables. Will recommend for sure.
Facility itself was nice but there was no camp host to maintain order. Consequently a group was partying hard and loud into the night well past midnight. Lots of swearing, drinking, fireworks or possibly handgun fire throughout the night.
Beautiful campground. Camp attendant was great! Facilities were awesome. We had a great time!
Great place to camp during our canoe/kayak trip down the Suwannee. The spacing of these parks are perfectly located so that you can paddle slowly, and visit all of the parks, or you can paddle faster and you can camp at every other campsite.
Very clean and well kept! There is a on-site “host” that keeps everything in working order. There are showers and real bathrooms! BBQ pits and campfire rings! Each platform camp area has screened walls and door! Hooks for at least two hammocks and power to charge your phone! A ceiling fan and light is also in each of the platform camping areas. A separate pavilion has bigger bbq pits and a few picnic tables so groups can gather under shelter. There are chains and canoe racks to secure your boats. Also a wheelbarrow to help move equipment from the landing up to the platforms. OVERALL…AWESOME!!!!
