Ochlockonee River State Park Campground

Nice park in a great area of the Florida coast. The road and sites are dirt. ATT cell was 5g and strong. Picked up a few TV stations from Tallahassee. Some of the sites are tight. Lots of shade. We camped in site 27 and it is a pull through with the fire pit and living space on the back side of the camper. Don't do what I did and go around and pull in backwards. All was good until it was time to leave. I have a 27 ft TT and the right turn to get out of the site was impossible. Fortunately the site across from me was empty and the camp host let me pull straight through that site and his making a big left loop to get out. Otherwise I was going to have to back out the way I came in.

Overall the campground is ok, but the park boasts of tons of land, yet has everyone crammed into a postage stamp. Kind of silly. With the new camping charges, plus $7 a day "utility fee" and additional taxes, my spot was $37 for one night crammed next to my neighbors in the middle of nowhere Florida. No thanks. Do want to say the park staff were incredibly nice though. Next time I'll stay at one of the State Forrest campgrounds nearby for $10 (or free) and throw the solar panels out. Just don't think it's worth the money now.

We loved this park! Very quiet and serene with good hiking, but not much to do in the area. Grocery stores are about 30 minutes from the park. I would recommend making the trip to Wakulla Springs and a visit to George Griffin Pottery. We had no trouble with accessibility with our 20' TT, but some of the spots are pretty tight. We saw a couple of big rigs, so it can be done...just be sure to select your site carefully. The dump was a bit annoying...the curb blocked the flow of the hose.

This is a beautiful park and we enjoyed bike riding on the main road but the campground is small and the spacing is cramped under beautiful oak trees. We camped on site #25 and it was large enough to accommodate our 30ft. TT. The turns in the campground were very difficult to manage due to trees and the closeness of the sites. The campsites and dump station are 1/2 mile from the entrance which is paved but the interior campground road and sites are pressed sand. We didn't have a problem leveling. Water & Electric at the site - no problems & easily reached. This site is very close to the bath house and volleyball court so there was a bit of noise with the number of kids congregated there.

There is a beautiful white deer that lives in the forest - a true site to see! We had no problems with connectivity. Hot spot connection with a booster: Verizon - Upload: 55.50 Download: 6.03 Streaming: 3.9 AT&T - Upload: 7.98 Upload: 0.41 Streaming: 2.4

All the prior reviews (as well as my prior stay) cover this park pretty well. With only 30 sites on a small U-shaped loop, it is a little slice of Florida paradise on the Forgotten Coast. Crawfordville is close enough to pick up essentials and there is so much to explore in every direction. I photographed nearly every site as they are all unique - use the photo of the campground map for reference. Sites 11, 24 & 26 are for walk-up (not reserveable). Sites 12 &14 are tent only.

The bathhouse was cleaned daily and the showers had lots of hot water. The rangers and volunteers were great. My T-Mobile phone was able to get a signal throughout the campground but tended to be slow averaging 6 down & 1-2 up. AT&T hotspot just now (afternoon) was 50 down and 5 up. I've been able to work & stream with no problem.

Small campground nestled in forest of pine trees that are home to endangered red-cockaded woodpecker. Lots of deer and you will enjoy seeing a white squirrels around the campground. The road to the sites is narrow curved with lots of trees. Difficult to maneuver to set up. Sites are spaced apart with modern electrical hookups and water. Nice walking paths thru the forest and along the river. Boats are welcomed. Very quiet with great stars at night when clear.
