My nickname for this campground is Disney Does Camping. The sites are so clean, you have to look hard for sticks even between the sites, the sites are literally raked thus so flat, and absolutely no trash anywhere. I completely agree with Tracy who added review just prior to me. Additionally, I learned you can kayak downstream 5 miles and then be brought back to the park. If you have your own kayak this is only $15. What a deal. My phone coverage in the van at site 12 is Verizon 5G 2 bars.

Very clean and quiet park. It has great trails for bikes and wonderful kayaking! Bathrooms are well maintained and even has heat lamps in the shower. We’ll definitely be back!

Large, level, pea gravel sites in a spacious, forested setting arranged to allow some privacy. Most sites are E/W only. Bathhouses are relatively new, well maintained and clean. The park has several nice hiking trails. It’s a bit odd that you have to drive to the springs, but it’s a short drive, and well worth it (pretty crowded though, even in early Feb on a weekday). We rented a kayak and saw alligators, turtles, manatees, Anhingas, wood ducks, loads of fish…very nice, and learned that Sea Hunt was filmed at the springs (dating myself here, as this was one of my favorite shows as a yute). The museum at the campgrounds is primarily for kiddies, and has a few Pleistocene era fossils and displays of ancient & modern dugout canoes, etc.

Sites were very large and lots of room between sites. The site was level and campground very clean and well maintained. There were a few sites in both loops that had full hook ups but we choose the water / electric only. We will stay there again for sure.

It’s nice to have a gravel site instead of sand. Very nice sites. Use SR 35 to get to the campground. Verizon 2-3 LTE. Nice shower house. There are several full hookup sites.

Little known state park if you try using GPS or Google Map to find it. The park is still growing, thus access to river and camping is strange; launching canoe/kayak is on SR40 entrance, camping is on SR35 entrance. Campsites are generously far enough apart due to kidney bean designed. All sites are graveled, clean and leveled. L-shaped camp site made for spacious and enjoyable stay. Whether back-in or pull-thru sites, all have good shade with wooden picnic table, fire ring and BBQ stand. Clean centralized bathroom with coin-op washer/dryer in covered patio. The nice camp hosts kept themselves busy, and it shows. For $24 a day plus taxes for a electric/water hook up, we really like this campground. This park is gearing up toward canoeing/kayaking with 9 miles of crystal clear springs one way. The 1.4 miles River Trail is popular with both bikers and hikers, as well as resident rhesus monkeys. Yeah, these sticky finger guys are also around. No swimming holes and no fishing anywhere in the park.

Nice camping, especially fort king loop. Private wooded sites. The only knock was no place to swim and the constant ankle bighting skeeters. After years of springs state park camping and cooling off, was most disappointed with that.
