Rode my bike there from the Florida Horse Park. We have camped at Santos and the lots are nice size. Electric and water hook ups. Dump station available. Easy access to the Florida Greenway trails.
My family loves this campground. We have been coming here forever, trails are awesome and a great environment.
This place is amazing, It's big and spacious, there was no trouble getting in and out of the campground, and there is always something to do. Whether it's going on a biking course, or wanting to take a stroll through spider kingdom (not a big fan of the name), it's always super fun. Not only that but there's just about a bathroom anywhere. biking but need to use the bathroom? Boom, bathroom right there. Rolling down a hill for fun and need to use a bathroom? There is one right there. Also If you are just trying to chill, there are pavilions around every corner. They support animals (which is pretty rare not gonna lie). So overall you should come to this place, If I could I would give it a 7/5 but I can't. Oh and one more thing, it's close to anything. There's nowhere you can't go or is too far. This is the best place ever and I highly recommend it. If you're close by, you should definitely come here.
Convenient to the Santos Trailhead for hiking, horseback riding, or biking. Just about 10 min. off of I-75. Camp sites are well spaced out; however, many are short and or narrow. Bathroom was clean, well maintained. Men's had 2 showers, 1 commode, 1 urinal, and 1 sink (choose your time wisely)
At night you can hear traffic on Rt. 301 and train horns in the distance, but not overly intrusive. You can still hear the owls hooting from your campsite.
Very good bike trails. Paved trail to the famous Land Bridge, 1st. of its kind.
Would we return? Definitely, yes!
Best mountain bike park in Florida!! Love the trails! Plenty of beginner and expert trails, fun for everyone. Campground was clean and friendly workers
