The biggest thing to know is if you camp over the weekend, campers are not allowed to park at the springs. And believe me, theyll know, you cant . Park police are everywhere, at the springs, the campsites with so many places struggling with being understaffed thats NOT a problem at this campground. Its quite a long walk from campsites to springs. Someone can drop you off, but of course then that someone either stays back to pick up later and that person makes the walk back to the camping side. Throughout the weekend they want those parking spots open for day users. Theyve already got the campers money, they want all the day users they can fit in that parking lot. When I complained about this I was told it was a curtesy to campers that we were able to go into the springs free and not pay day user fee each day. That they were actually 2 separate parks and if they chose to could make us pay spring entry too. Other than private campgrounds, this was the most expensive weve camped at.

This was out first trip to the Salt Springs area, everything was well maintained sites were in great shape and well marked. We had no problem finding everything and getting set up after accidentally arriving after dark! All staff encountered was helpful and pleasant- seemed to enjoy their job!

Large spacious sites, clean restroom and bath house, well maintained and friendly, helpful Staff. Nice spring swimming area and easy access launch area for kayak. Only downside in early December were swarms of mosquitoes as we were their before the first frost.

Had great weather for the weekend. NEW staff is extremely welcoming and helpful. Bummer the springs and rec area was closed but I understand, nature. Would visit again once spring reopens.

Site #53 was fairly level with filtered shade. Easy back in, full hook ups, and paved camper parking site. Clean bath houses and paved access roads. Park is well maintained. Will stay again.

We enjoy that park very much and love going in the springs... the flies not too much!

This is a beautiful spot of nature. The other campers were friendly. No one disturbed the peace by loud music. I just wish I didn't have to walk so far to get to the spring from the campground.

@CherylF5689303 · Camped on Mar 5, 2022 at Campsite #53
Nice campground with full hookup, but sites not very large. Also, pretty far from springsdid not like policy of not allowing campers to park in springs parking lot on weekends, even those with handicapped tags! Did not get in the water here because of this policy!
@JoAnnT5003756 · Camped on Feb 22, 2022 at Campsite #53
Awesome place! Beautiful, large sites with full hook-ups. The only negative is the stress of managing to get a one night reservation on-line and then waiting at the office at 7:30 the next morning to try and get one of the FF spots for the rest of a maximum 14-day reservation! (It's worth it though - this campground, salt springs swimming, and the whole area is beautiful!)

The campground is first class and well maintained. The springs are very nice. Otherwise, there is not much to do.

Swimming with the manatees was the highlight of our Florida trip .Also kayaked down the canal which was fun. Campsite was large, full but well maintained.

Paved, back-in full hook up sites. Yeah!
@RobertS9225788 · Camped on Jan 17, 2022 at Campsite #53
We had very grit and help staff. Very good facilities. The only thing I would add is you need to fix the fan that makes so much noise in the bathroom. Iranians grease or a new fan. Other than that we had a very good time thank you for asking

This is a great campground. Everything is clean and kept in excellent shape. When weather is too cold to swim the picnic area is a nice place to chill out. We enjoy this campground so much that we stay there at least once a month.
