We spent the July 4th weekend camping at Alexander Springs Recreation Area and had an amazing experience! Our campsite was clean, spacious, and perfect for a relaxing getaway. The staff truly made our visit exceptional. Everyone we met was friendly, professional, and always happy to help, chat, or offer great tips. We especially enjoyed talking with Donny down at the canoe launch, such a kind and knowledgeable person. The staff at both the gatehouse and the store went above and beyond to assist us whenever we needed anything. The springs themselves are beautiful and refreshing. Well definitely be back to enjoy this little slice of paradise again!

Coleene ar admissions was very friendly and accommodating. We found the Pavilion clean and well maintained. The Springs was refreshing to our crowd who had brought their own kyacks for paddling down and back to the Springs. One regret, the Nature Trail was closed. To some, thats the highlight of the visit.

Alexander Springs was nice. The camp ground seemed to be kept well. It was very busy though. Our specific camp ground was tucked back and had lots of ticks and yellow flies. Be sure to bring Deep Woods bug spray and repellent. We had brought some natural stuff and it did not help at all and my fianc and I were chewed up, and my fianc got a lone star tick bite. It was also close to the road, so you could always hear when a car went by.

One of my favorite spots to motorcycle camp. Staff is always friendly and accommodating. The springs are nice to cool down in the summer heat.

I understand it is primitive camping in the forest but,wow, Ive camped here numerous times and the ticks have never been this bad.

Disappointed that Alexander doesn't partner with other spring sites to individual reduce entrance fees ($15 pp vs. $8 for car load at state parks). Would suggest assistant manager check with staff before confronting campers about having switched sites, especially after returning from days off.

Park was clean, our site was well laid out clean and safe.

@Warren18052663 · Camped on Apr 18, 2025 at Campsite #6
No benches in shower they have been removed and not put back. Towel and clothes rack on wall have been wired so they will hold your towel some of them have no wires so the will not hold up anything you hang your towel and it falls off

This was our second stay at Alexander Springs, and we love it! The campsites are clean, private and spacious. There is no electricity, but otherwise very nice. We love swimming in the spring and canoeing the river. All in all, a great park.
@LaurieS7977874 · Camped on Apr 4, 2025 at Campsite #24
This was perhaps the nicest camping experience weve ever hadjust the sounds of the natural world at night and in the morning. The springs were marvelous (especially during the week when there were fewer people) and we loved our paddles on the spring. We stayed 8 nightsand we were so happy to be there. Very nice staff too!
@BrittanyC20663 · Camped on Apr 3, 2025 at Campsite #20
BRING SOMETHING TO REPELL THE NO-SEE-UMS!!! This is a beautiful campground with amazing amenities. Restrooms and shower spots are always well kept, the springs are a short drive or a good walk away for a day of fun. Tiki torches were the way to go for us with helping deter bugs but thats part of nature, just miserable for bites.

Well as soon as we arrived at camp we were happily greeted by staff member Jenna at the front gate. As we spent our trip at camp we were happy to see that Alexander Springs maintains its prestine look. Everywhere we went we saw staff cleaning and maintaining the area safe. It is always a pleasure to come to Alexander Springs Durring our stay Jenna stopped by to make sure we were doing ok and if we needed anything to let them know. It's always great to know the staff care about the people camping in the area. Can't wait to return with the family again.
@MichelleM70561 · Camped on Mar 16, 2025 at Campsite #55
Loved our time there. The ladies at the front office were great. So helpful and very nice.
@ElenaU9350F96A · Camped on Mar 14, 2025 at Campsite #8
Park was clean and well maintained. Bathrooms always clean and well equipped. Park rangers respectful, helpful and kind. We will definitely come back!
@DaleH691212242 · Camped on Mar 10, 2025 at Campsite #17
Pretty bad that the springs access closes at 5:30. Sunset was not until 7:30. Also why would you remodel the restrooms at the springs during the busiest time of the year. The bathrooms on B loop were in bad shape. Broken faucets in the showers, and the sinks where water was running constantly resulting in no hot water for the showers.
@NikkiR122F3972 · Camped on Mar 10, 2025 at Campsite #64
Friendly staff. Nice clean camp ground. The campsite was surrounded by trees to provide a little privacy and some shade. Would stay again
@KimberlyK66506 · Camped on Mar 9, 2025 at Campsite #9
I have been camping at alexander springs for 8 years with 2 other family's and I have to say this year everything was the cleanest we have seen. The staff was for the most part friendly and the park looked like it was getting some much needed work done. We normally all book the same camp sites every year and we were pleasantly surprised to see they might be fixing the roads in loop A that have needed repair for 8 years atleast.
@JonatanE1883B2 · Camped on Mar 7, 2025 at Campsite #48
I would like to mention how great was my vacation on Alexander Springs , this is my third time there, the reason Im coming back is because the staff is great! I really had to mention one of the managers even went to my site to pick up my trash ! That was amazing!
@JenniferL39143 · Camped on Mar 6, 2025 at Campsite #39
Beautiful campground with Springs that stay at 72 degrees. Campsite was not level but had bear box, fire pit and table and was clean and close to hiking trails and shower houses. Would definitely stay again and pick a level site. Friendly, helpful and welcoming staff.
@MelanieG95C0E6 · Camped on Mar 2, 2025 at Campsite #A
Beautiful spring and grounds. We rented one of the pavilions, which was almost perfect. We would love to camp there, but the lack of electric and water at each site is a dealbreaker. However, we love to come for the day and will definitely be back.
@JodieM8770008 · Camped on Feb 28, 2025 at Campsite #28
Renting a kayak was a super experience for us. We found the staff at the ranger station to be so friendly and helpful.
@ArleneW0D259FA · Camped on Feb 27, 2025 at Campsite #67
It was a wonderful place to camp. We participated in everything the park had to offer. We kayaked, biked, and hiked.The park and bathrooms were clean. The staff was very helpful . I also want to say Jenna went the extra mile to help solve a problem after closing time. Alexander Springs was a wonderful place!

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.

@CarlaLThompson - Colorado

I just love this site and I tell everyone about it! It's so competitive to secure desired campsites and the alerts really help track when sites free up. The best part of this story is our alert notified a cancellation the next day!!!!!! Just incredible!!!
