Gainesville RV Park

61 RV Sites

Gainesville RV Park in Waldo, Florida, offers 61 full-hookup RV sites just off U.S. Highway 301, with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 60 feet. Dedicated pond back-in and pond pull-through categories join deluxe 50-amp tiers and a 30-amp water-and-electric option, with a stocked fishing pond, recreation center, and on-site dining. Sixty-one sites span back-in water-and-electric 30-amp, deluxe back-in 50-amp, deluxe pull-thru 50-amp, pond back-in 30/50-amp, and pond pull-thru 30/50-amp categories, carrying water, sewer, and electric where noted with site WiFi, sized to 60 feet. The pond categories put you on the water at the site, which is what most guests here are after. Confirm your tier, as the water-and-electric category does not carry sewer. A laundry, propane fills, dump station, restrooms, and showers handle the practical side. The park was formerly Dixieland RV Park; the current site is gainesvillervpark.com. A stocked fishing pond is the recreational anchor, with a recreation center, pavilion, and on-site dining filling the rest. The amenity set is focused rather than broad — this is relaxed, community-oriented camping rather than a programmed resort. Pets are welcome. Waldo sits within easy reach of Gainesville and the University of Florida campus, with Paynes Prairie and the north Florida springs corridor close by. Fall football Saturdays and the winter snowbird months drive the heaviest demand in the Gainesville corridor. Reserve ahead for home game weekends and for January through March.

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.

Citra sits squarely between Ocala and Gainesville. The resort serves the North Central Florida season. Winter and spring draw the heaviest demand as snowbirds fill the state and the horse country's breeding and sales calendar peaks, with the lake recreation carrying summer. Reserve ahead for January through April.

Laundry, a bathhouse with showers, boat storage, and a barn cover the practical side, with cabins for guests without a rig. Pets are welcome.
