The Station RV Resort

2 Onsite RV/Trailers

The Station RV Resort in Madison, Florida, offers two RV sites named Geneva and Ms Charlotte, one mile from Interstate 10's Exit 258, behind a gated entrance and open all year. An outdoor pool, fitness center, EV charging, pickleball and bocce courts, and on-site dining serve a boutique property on the north Florida I-10 corridor. Two sites are named individually rather than numbered — Geneva and Ms Charlotte — which at this scale is less a category system than an introduction. Confirm amp service, hookups, and length limits with the resort when you book. Cabins round out the lodging. A general store, laundry, propane fills, dump station, restrooms, EV charging, and on-site dining handle the practical side. EV charging is still uncommon at RV parks and worth knowing about if you tow with an electric vehicle. If you arrive after hours, the resort texts a map with directions to your site, exit information, and access codes for the bathrooms and showers. An outdoor pool anchors the property, with a fitness center, sports courts, pickleball, bocce ball, a playground, community fire pit, pavilion, dog park, and pond filling the rest. Boating, swimming, picnicking, and productive birding round it out. That amenity list at two sites means the pool, gym, and courts are effectively private — a level of exclusivity no large resort can offer, and the reason guests book here rather than at a highway park. Madison sits midway on I-10 between Tallahassee and Lake City, with the Suwannee and Madison Blue Spring close. Reserve well ahead. Two sites fill fast.

Suwannee River Rendezvous Resort & Campground

319 RV Sites, 14 Cabins, 19 Tent Sites, 1 Cottage, 1 Treehouse, 3 Lodges, 1 Suite

Suwannee River Rendezvous Resort and Campground in Mayo, Florida, offers 319 RV sites, 20 cabin, cottage, lodge, suite, and treehouse units, and 19 tent sites on the Suwannee River, with 20, 30, and 50-amp full hookups, cable TV, ADA-accessible sites, and rigs accepted to 65 feet on a big-rig-friendly layout. Dog park back-in categories join standard full-hookup tiers, alongside a spring-fed spa, disc golf course, and boat ramp. Three hundred nineteen sites span 30/50-amp full hookup back-in, 30/50-amp full hookup back-in dog park, and 30/50-amp full hookup back-in dog park Primrose Park categories, all carrying water, sewer, and electric with cable TV and site WiFi, sized to 65 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. Dedicated dog park sites put you next to the run rather than across the property. Accessible sites are available. Twenty cabins, cottages, lodges, suites, and treehouses and 19 tent sites round out the lodging. A general store, laundry, propane fills and exchange, restrooms, showers, and a pet washing station handle the practical side. An outdoor pool and spa anchor the property, with a boat ramp and kayak rentals opening the river for canoeing, kayaking, and fishing. A disc golf course, mini-golf, fitness center, recreation center, game room, arcade, sports courts, pickleball, volleyball, basketball, bocce ball, shuffleboard, billiards, ping pong, horseshoes, corn hole, walking trails, a playground, pavilion, dog park, and on-site dining fill the rest. Lafayette Blue Springs, Troy Spring, Peacock Springs, and Ichetucknee are all close. Spring and fall are peak on the springs circuit. Reserve well ahead.

Shell Island Fish Camp

5 Park Models

Shell Island Fish Camp in Saint Marks, Florida, offers full-hookup RV sites with water, sewer, and electric alongside park model and cabin accommodations at a working marina on the St. Marks River. Boat docks, a boat ramp, boat rentals, and boat storage have served anglers here since 1952. Full-hookup back-in sites carry water, sewer, and electric, with park models and cabins rounding out the accommodations. A general store, dump station, restrooms, showers, and a pavilion handle the practical side, with WiFi throughout. Boat storage is available — genuinely useful at a property where nearly every guest arrives towing. The marina is the identity. Boat docks, a boat ramp, and boat rentals give direct access to the St. Marks River where it transitions through tidal estuary toward Apalachee Bay and the Gulf. Fishing and boating run from the property, with planned activities through the season and outstanding birding across the surrounding salt marsh. Seven decades of continuous operation reflect the persistent appeal of the St. Marks corridor as a Gulf fishing and natural history destination. The tidal rivers and salt marsh of the Big Bend coast open onto the Apalachee Bay fishery, with the St. Marks National Wildlife Refuge protecting 70,000 acres of coastal habitat immediately around — one of the premier birding sites in the Southeast, particularly during migration. Fishing season runs long on the Gulf, with fall and spring the most productive and the most comfortable. Reserve ahead for peak fishing periods.

Dreamin' 'n' Driftin' RV Resort

Dreamin' 'n' Driftin' RV Resort in Lake City, Florida, is a brand-new facility on 35 acres in Columbia County — a full-hookup pull-through campground with modern resort amenities at the I-10 and I-75 interchange that positions guests at the gateway to north-central Florida's extraordinary spring and river recreation corridor. Lake City's crossroads location between the Suwannee River, the Ichetucknee River, and the Osceola National Forest gives guests who stop for more than a single night the freshwater spring access, tubing, and natural Florida character that the crystal-clear spring systems of the Columbia and Hamilton County landscape provide in their most accessible and most spectacular form. Spacious full-hookup pull-through sites, a swimming pool, and the comprehensive modern amenities of a brand-new resort facility give guests the complete practical base for north-central Florida spring exploration from an I-10/I-75 location that makes Lake City one of the most practically accessible campgrounds in the state for travelers on Florida's primary north-south and east-west interstate corridors. The 35-acre property's new infrastructure — roads, utilities, and site layout built to current standards — gives big-rig operators and long-term guests the facility quality that new construction provides in a region where the campground inventory's age often works against comfortable modern RV sizes. Pets are welcome. Ichetucknee Springs State Park, approximately 30 miles west of Lake City in Columbia and Suwannee Counties, protects the Ichetucknee River's nine first-magnitude springs — springs that discharge a combined 233 million gallons of 68-degree water daily through a five-mile river corridor of extraordinary clarity, aquatic vegetation, and wildlife density that is simply one of the finest natural tubing and snorkeling experiences in the United States. The park's summer tubing operation from June through Labor Day manages the river access to protect the spring ecosystem while sustaining the float experience through two-hour and full-day tube floats that reveal successive springs, wildlife, and the specific sensory quality of cold, clear spring water in a North Florida summer. The Suwannee River, winding west of Lake City toward the Gulf, is one of the iconic rivers of the American South — immortalized in Stephen Foster's "Old Folks at Home" (Florida's state song), a genuine wilderness river whose tannin-dark water through cypress and live oak bottomland gives paddlers the specific blackwater Florida character that the spring-fed rivers contrast with in the same north-central Florida landscape. Canoe and kayak travel on the Suwannee through the Big Shoals section north of White Springs — Florida's only significant whitewater — provides the most adventurous paddling in the state's otherwise flat river network. Dreamin' 'n' Driftin' RV Resort serves guests year-round in Lake City's north Florida climate, where the spring and fall seasons from March through May and September through November deliver the most comfortable outdoor recreation conditions and the summer months bring the primary Ichetucknee tubing season that drives Columbia County's most intensive visitor activity. The Osceola National Forest, northeast of Lake City, provides upland pine and cypress dome hunting and wildlife viewing access for guests extending their north Florida stay into the national forest's 157,000 acres of managed public land. Reserve sites ahead for the summer Ichetucknee tubing season and the winter snowbird period when north Florida's mild climate draws the seasonal visitor market from the northeastern and Midwestern states.

Manatee Springs RV Park

30 RV Sites

Manatee Springs RV Park in Chiefland, FL, offers 30 full-hookup RV sites with 30 and 50-amp service and room for rigs up to 65 feet. Sites come in four categories — small, standard, premium, and pull-through — all carrying water, sewer, and electric with site-delivered WiFi. Two things to know before booking: this is a 55+ community, and RVs must be fully self-contained, because there are no public restrooms or showers on the property. Laundry, propane exchange, and personal mailboxes are available, which tells you how many guests stay the season. The park is open all year and pet friendly, with a dog park. The setting is quiet by design rather than programmed — a place for picnicking, boating on the nearby river, and stargazing, with golf close by. Chiefland sits in Levy County, wrapped in the live oaks and Spanish moss of Old Florida, minutes from Manatee Springs State Park where the spring run meets the Suwannee River. Rates for monthly and seasonal stays are on the booking page. Confirm the 55+ and self-contained requirements before you reserve — both are firm.

Sun Resorts & Residences Southern Leisure

441 RV Sites, 5 Cottages

Southern Leisure in Chiefland, FL, offers 441 full-hookup RV sites and 5 cottages, with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and room for rigs up to 50 feet. Sites come in three categories — standard full-hookup, standard full-hookup pull-through, and oversize full-hookup pull-through — all carrying water, sewer, electric, and cable TV with site-delivered WiFi, on concrete pads. This is a gated 55+ community, open all year and rated big rig friendly. Laundry, a bathhouse with showers, a dump station, on-site dining, and golf cart rentals cover the practical side. Pets are welcome, with a dog park. The amenity list matches the scale: an Olympic-size outdoor pool, a clubhouse, a recreation center, a game room, sport courts, pickleball, bocce, shuffleboard, corn hole, live music, and planned activities, with creek frontage on the property. Chiefland sits on Northwest 21st Avenue, eight miles east of Manatee Springs State Park in the spring-fed Big Bend region of Florida. Golf, boating, a beach, and a lake are all nearby, and hot air ballooning and wine tasting round out the local calendar. Rates for sites and cottages are on the booking page. Confirm the 55+ requirement, and reserve early for the winter season.

High Springs RV Resort and Campground

52 RV Sites, 7 Tent Sites

High Springs RV Resort and Campground in High Springs, Florida, offers 52 RV sites and seven primitive tent sites minutes from Interstate 75, with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 90 feet. Six categories cover grass and paved back-ins and paved pull-throughs, with an outdoor pool and on-site dining, open all year in north-central Florida's spring country. Fifty-two sites run in grass 30-amp back-ins, grass 30/50-amp back-ins, paved 30/50-amp back-ins, paved 30-amp pull-throughs, and paved 30/50-amp pull-throughs, carrying water, sewer, and electric, sized to 90 feet. The grass-versus-paved distinction is useful — paved sites hold up better in Florida's wet season. Seven primitive tent sites cover simpler camping. Laundry, restrooms, showers, and WiFi handle the practical side, with on-site dining for meals. An outdoor pool anchors the on-site recreation, with a playground and walking trails across the grounds. The real draw is what surrounds the property: snorkeling, scuba diving, swimming, and fishing in the spring system, with hiking and boating nearby. Pets are welcome. High Springs sits in Alachua County amid one of the highest concentrations of first-magnitude freshwater springs in the world — natural limestone vents producing millions of gallons of 68-degree water daily, creating some of the most remarkable aquatic environments in North America. Gainesville's university culture is east, the Suwannee River's cypress-shaded corridor north, and a state park is close by. The resort is open year-round. Summer spring-diving season and the mild winter months both draw steadily — reserve ahead for holiday weekends.

Ho-Hum RV Park

52 RV Sites

Ho-Hum RV Park in Carrabelle, Florida, offers 52 full-hookup RV sites on the Gulf, with 20, 30, and 50-amp service, cable TV, and rigs accepted to 60 feet on a big-rig-friendly layout. Beachfront pull-in and beach view pull-through categories join interior back-in, pull-in, and pull-through tiers, with a half-mile walking beach and a 250-foot fishing pier. Fifty-two sites span beachfront pull-in, beach view pull-thru, interior back-in, interior pull-in, and interior pull-thru categories, all carrying water, sewer, and electric with cable TV and site WiFi, sized to 60 feet, with picnic tables. The beachfront pull-in sites face the Gulf directly — the whole reason to book here. Contact the park before your arrival date to confirm check-in. One policy to clear first: in general the park does not accept RVs older than 10 years, homemade RVs, converted school buses, or conversion vans, though exceptions are made. A laundry, propane fills, restrooms, showers, golf cart rentals, and a recreation center handle the practical side. A half-mile of natural walking beach and a 250-foot fishing pier anchor the property, with unobstructed Gulf views, boating, canoeing, kayaking, fishing, a dog park, and productive birding besides. The park sits four miles east of Carrabelle in Lanark Village, where the Apalachicola National Forest and Tate's Hell State Forest meet the least commercialized stretch of the Panhandle coast. Winter and spring draw the heaviest demand on the Forgotten Coast. Book well ahead for January through April.

Sunset Point at Cedar Key

60 RV Sites

Sunset Point at Cedar Key, Florida, offers 60 full-hookup RV sites on the Gulf waterfront, with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 40 feet on a big-rig-friendly layout. Categories are sized by rig length — 25 feet or less, 26 to 30, 31 to 35, and greater than 35 — with two waterfront tiers, a clubhouse, and a community fire pit. Sixty sites span back-in 25 feet or less, back-in 26 to 30 feet, back-in 31 to 35 feet, back-in greater than 35 feet, pull-through, waterfront 35 feet or less, and waterfront greater than 35 feet categories, all carrying water, sewer, and electric on 30 and 50-amp with site WiFi. Pricing and sizing by rig length is genuinely fair — a small trailer does not pay for space it cannot use, and a 40-foot coach knows exactly where it fits. Specify your RV size when booking so the park can match you to the right spot; sites are designed for rigs up to 40 feet. A laundry, restrooms, showers, and a clubhouse handle the practical side. A community fire pit fills out the grounds, with canoeing, kayaking, pickleball, and boating nearby and a state park close. The dark Gulf sky makes for genuinely good stargazing. Pets are welcome. Cedar Key is one of the Gulf Coast's most authentic, least developed, and most stubbornly independent small towns, set on a cluster of low islands. The sunsets here are so reliably spectacular that watching them is the town's daily event. Winter and spring draw the heaviest demand on the Nature Coast. Reserve well ahead for January through April.

Coastline RV Resort

34 RV Sites

Coastline RV Resort in Eastpoint, FL, offers 34 full-hookup RV sites with 30 and 50-amp service and room for rigs up to 70 feet. Sites come in three categories — East Park back-in, West Park back-in, and West Park pull-thru — all carrying water, sewer, electric, and cable TV with site-delivered WiFi. Two booking notes: three-night minimums apply on holiday weekends, and while the resort tries to honor specific site requests, the on-site manager makes the final call. Laundry, a bathhouse with showers, a general store, a boutique shop, propane fills, a dump station, on-site dining, and both RV and boat storage cover the rest. Pets are welcome, with a dog park. An outdoor pool, a fitness center, a recreation center, a clubhouse, a pavilion, sport courts, pickleball, corn hole, a playground, and walking trails fill the grounds, with swimming, fishing, boating, kayaking, and biking. Eastpoint sits directly on Apalachicola Bay on Florida's Forgotten Coast — a quiet fishing village and one of the state's most productive oyster bays. Rates by site category are on the booking page. Note the holiday minimum when planning your dates.

Eleanor Oaks RV Park

55 RV Sites

Eleanor Oaks RV Park in Yankeetown, Florida, offers 55 full-hookup RV sites on the Nature Coast, with 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 45 feet. Back-in and pull-through categories join a solar-heated pool, marina, boat docks, fishing pier, kayak rentals, and recreation center in Levy County. Fifty-five sites run in back-in and pull-through categories, both carrying water, sewer, and electric on 50-amp with site WiFi, sized to 45 feet. One thing to check before booking: service is 50-amp throughout, so bring an adapter if your rig runs 30. Furnished rental accommodations round out the lodging. A laundry, restrooms, showers, firewood, RV storage, and boat storage handle the practical side. A solar-heated outdoor pool anchors the property, with a marina, boat docks, fishing pier, and kayak rentals opening the water for boating, canoeing, kayaking, and swimming. A recreation center, clubhouse, walking trails, playground, community fire pit, dog park, horseshoes, and corn hole fill the rest. Pets are welcome. Yankeetown sits at the mouth of the Withlacoochee River on one of the least developed and most ecologically intact stretches of the Florida Gulf Coast. The Withlacoochee Gulf Preserve is a 413-acre parcel of undeveloped wetlands — hardwood and pine, tidal marsh, and salt ponds — with a 30-foot observation tower and walking trails, and it is a short trip from the park. Crystal River's manatees and Cedar Key are both close. Winter is decisively the season on the Nature Coast, with manatee season running November through March. Book well ahead for January through March.

Sun Retreats Ocala Orange Lake

28 RV Sites, 5 Cottages

Sun Retreats Ocala Orange Lake in Citra, Florida, offers 28 full-hookup RV sites and five cottages in Marion County horse country, with 30 and 50-amp service, cable TV, and rigs accepted to 50 feet, open all year behind a gated entrance. Elite and premium back-in and pull-through categories join a standard tier, with boat docks, mini-golf, a pool, and fitness center. Twenty-eight sites span elite back-in, elite pull-thru, premium back-in, premium pull-thru, and standard back-in categories, all carrying water, sewer, and electric with cable TV and site WiFi, sized to 50 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. Five tiers give real budget range for a park this size. Five cottages round out the lodging.

The property operates as a wedding venue, and wine tasting and a golf course are nearby. Citra sits where the Ocala National Forest's sandhill scrub meets the thoroughbred farms that the limestone-rich Floridan Aquifer sustains — the most productive horse breeding country in the hemisphere, with Ocala and Gainesville both close. Winter and spring drive demand as snowbirds fill north central Florida and the equestrian calendar peaks. Reserve well ahead for January through April.
