Campsite 7 was level with a nice view of the woods. The temps were chilly so bugs were not an issue. Bathrooms were clean and camp host friendly. Adequate solar to keep our batteries topped off.

Great spot! surprise for those interested in Civil War is that its right next to the largest Civil War battle in Florida! Easy to get to, get in, and get out. Had everything we needed and a great view.

Very nice and clean camp. Bathrooms could use some improvement, but they had plenty of hot water. Hosts were good.

I stopped in what was supposed to be for a couple days on my way south from Michigan to the Everglades. I enjoyed the campground so much. I ended up staying over a week. I hope this doesnt encourage too many people to stay there because then itll be difficult to get reservations. plenty of hiking and biking and birding to do. I appreciate that they dont allow RVs within the campground, keeps the noise down.

We camped in the electric loop for a week. During that time there were 3 days that the bathrooms were not taken care of. One of the womens stalls had no toilet paper for 3 days. The showers were not cleaned but the water was hot. Other than this, we enjoyed our stay and met some nice people.

Mens restroom and shower room was not cleaned in the 2 1/2 days I was there. Maybe the cleaners dont clean them over the weekends.

Lovely campground on a "pond" that qualifies as a lake. Nice 6- mile bike ride to the Olustee Battleground. No sewer hookup but the dump station has easy access. Many economical sites with only water.

Great views. Very quiet. Its about a half hour to any amenities so bring whatever you need. I would certainly go back. Rangers were very nice and friendly.

I try to follow the "don't move firewood between states and counties" rule. There was no "local" firewood to buy in the area and the host said to just gather, which I'm fine with but seemed strange I didn't have the option to purchase local firewood anywhere nearby.

Snowbirds are taking over another Fl. campground. Being overrun during prime camping months. Sites being reserved and not occupied

The pads are paved and large, tree cover is great, the pond is gorgeous and visible from all sites, bathrooms are clean, showers are older but hot and private, laundry works great. The Florida trail goes right through walking distance. I dont fish but the massive size of this pond tells me its probably fun to fish here. Sunsets are extraordinary. Theres a little beach on the left side of the campground, too. So nice! Easy to get to, weve been back here three times now!

This was a wonderful park. A little of everything in regards to campsites: Electric & water, just water, and then primitive. The camp hosts were very nice and helpful. Bathrooms were sufficient and clean. They had electrical outlets and actual mirrors (not those metal things that don't reflect very well). The showers are separate and individual rooms around the back of the building. One that I ended up in didn't have a bench to set anything down on. There were peg/hook type things, but they were small. I ended up setting my clothes right outside the door of the room. I didn't check every shower room, but looked liked the others had fold down seats/benches.The Wi-Fi was excellent (I have T-Mobile) throughout the campground (Oh, not sure about the primitive sites, sorry). I even used my phone as a hotspot connection to watch some tv in my Teardrop camper (Hey, it was a rainy day, lol).This campground has direct access to the Florida Scenic Trail. I would definitely stay there again as well as recommend it to others.

2 years had passed since my last stay. You needed to put cash in an envelope to reserve. Bathrooms (showers) were in shambles. This stay was a pleasant surprise. The campground is a great resting spot for a weary snowbird. The overall score would of been higher if it wasnt for the new QR check in. You need to address that.

I just used PerfectCamp.com to book six consecutive August nights at the most popular campsite in one of the most popular campgrounds in Humboldt Redwoods State Park in California. That is not anything I could have accomplished anywhere else with the ease I did here! Thank you, PerfectCamp! I LOVE this site! You will find me on several other camping sites but the design, format, functionality, and personality of this the best. It’s fresh and clean.

Wow! Woke up this morning to a notification that a favorite had opened at Paulina, and when I went to check, it was there. This membership just paid for itself in the first 24 hours I owned it. Couldn't take the site it conflicted with a trip already set, but it truly was there. Thanks Tons.
