Excellent campground. We arrived late at night and, unlike many other campgrounds, the entrance gate is electric, secure, and very easy to access. The campsites are spacious and well-equipped (picnic tables, water, fire pits). Bathrooms in excellent condition: clean, with hot water showers. There are miles of trails to explore, including some that go around the ponds. *At night, you may hear some... Excellent campground.

Had the whole campground to myself. Quiet, peaceful. Citrus tract offers great hiking. Been here 3 times now. Lake was a bit small for the kayak, but it was nice to float around in.

This campground was pretty but the restroom lights didn't work in the men's room and there is a no alcohol rule in camp. Some of us are traveling and can't exactly empty our cars to not possess alcoholic beverages when we collect craft beers from across the state/country... I have typically never had a bad camping experience but this stay was the exception. We had a neighbor that ran his generato... This campground was pretty but the restroom lights didn't work in the men's room and there is a no alcohol rule in camp. Some of us are traveling and can't exactly empty our cars to not possess alcoholic beverages when we collect craft beers from across the state/country... I have typically never had a bad camping experience but this stay was the exception. We had a neighbor that ran his generator all evening and morning. There should be a decibel limit on generators, they had an old, very loud, whole-house generator. Update: Came back a year later and there are new restrooms. They have 4 unisex stalls with showers. The water was hot but they could have fit 2 more in the same space to reduce congestion. They also do not drain very well. At&t cellular reception is decent.

Excellent walk with our dogs. Clean horse trail. Just solitude. Very clean. Drinking water for horses and dogs. Day walk, not overnight.

Wonderful experience :) Very well maintained and clean. I believe it’s only $10 per night for camping. No electricity but has water faucet, fire pit and picnic table as you can see in the pic. They offer free firewood as well so we added some donation when we purchased the ticket online. There are two bathrooms and I actually saw a electrical outlet outside the female bathroom if someone really n... Wonderful experience :) Very well maintained and clean.

They offer free firewood as well so we added some donation when we purchased the ticket online. There are two bathrooms and I actually saw a electrical outlet outside the female bathroom if someone really need to charge their phone. Visited here from Monday-Friday during May so it’s only us and maybe 2 more other families here. Fairly close to crystal river for manatee and one hour drive to Tampa for some authentic Chinese food. 30min drive to the amazing Rainbow Springs. Absolutely will come back
