Peaceful federal campground in Ocala National Forest.

We stayed two nights here in February, the sites were large with bear box, fire ring, lamp post and picnic table. No utilities at the sites but water and a dump station are available as are two clean and well maintained shower/restroom facilities.

There is a small lake with a beach, swimming area and paddle craft for rent. Bags of ice and firewood can be purchased at the entry station.

Grounds are well maintained and bear safety and site parking rules (vehicles must be on the pavement) are enforced.

We purchased firewood for $7 plus tax and the host was kind enough to deliver it directly to our site. We spent time paddling the lake, swimming and hiking. There is a beautiful trail the encircles the lake, about 1.2 miles, and there are means of access to the Florida Trail from the campground as well.

Cost is pretty steep for no hook ups, we paid $63.50 for the two nights excluding taxes and reservation fees.

Cell service was hit or miss with our T-Mobile hot spot and good with our Verizon phones.

My only complaint/suggestion would be to designate one of the two loops as generator free. It was so peaceful sitting around the fire in the evenings but I would have to resort to playing some quiet music as the generators around us started up.
