Park employees were pleasant and tried to be helpful.Our site was close to a camper who ran his generator all day, as much as the quiet time rules allowed and beyond.I had to walk over to the site at 11pm, 1 hour AFTER quite hours start, to ask him to turn off the generator. The parks need to implement new rules for generator use!Beyond the generator issue, the springs were wonderful!The bathrooms and showers were clean and maintained well. We would like to visit again to hike more trails and see more of the area. Maybe there wont be a generator running all day and night on our next visit.

Had a very private site with lots of greenery so pretty quiet. Staff was great. Lots to do with the spring for swimming and kayaking and some dirt trails for biking. An older campground but kept up well. Had a great visit.

We loved this state park! Make sure you rent a canoe or kayak to explore the river. We saw so much wildlife.

This might be the mist beautiful and restful place we stayed at in Florida m: the park really is a must to visit.There electricity and a fresh water connection at every rv spot, several and very clean dump stations, there's plenty of space between the spots and therefore a lot of privacy and the location is just gorgeous: everything you hope to find at a camping spot.

Alexander Springs is a beautiful park with excellent camp sites that provide a more private experience than other park campgrounds.

Beautiful area and accessible to everyone. We camped there over labor day weekend and canoed, biked and hiked. There was plenty to do and the facilities were good. My only recommendation....the concessionaire at the spring could do better to have more food options available. The park service would do well to open a cafe there.

Very nice

Secluded, woodsy campsites and well-maintained restrooms & showers (thank you, staff!) make this a pleasant campground... the spring is gravy on the cake! Do NOT leave without swimming out to the springhead... you'll need a mask, and a snorkel is helpful .. you will see an underwater chasm that is spectacular!

Beautiful property. campsites are well maintained but very much natural. Bathhouses and restrooms very clean. Personnel at park nice and polite and helpful. The springs are so beautiful.

Very nice place. We stay here as a family often. They charge $7 for a bag of wood which seems high. Canoe rentals are expensive too. Wanted to stay a third night but if you reserve your spot they make you switch sites for your stay beyond your reservation...even if no one has reserved your spot for that night.

This was our first camping trip. We greatly enjoyed the campground and spring. However, the bathrooms were out of order. We knew the campsites were considered primitive, but it's advertised as having bath houses. They do have port-a-potties, but the only showers are available on loop C between 8pm and 8am. Other than that, was a good first time camping experience. Campsite 50 is awesome!! You can tuck your tent behind two trees and it's barely visible from the road. Very secluded feeling.

Other than the spring, there was not a whole lot of amenities like a playground etc for kids. Bathrooms were kept decent although I did hear that only one shower house was available for use during our stay.
One complaint was after the frequent rain, the cemented area around the picnic area of our campsite became very slippery. My mother in law actually slipped and tore open her knee. In the future, maybe a less slippery surface should be used near the campsites.
Positives include; well kept /free of trash /litter, staff was friendly and helpful, location was very beautiful with many campsites to choose from, and the springs were very clear and relaxing.
Overall, we would stay again if there was no rain in the forecast

Stayed in loop D. Almost all were tents-only. Lovely vegetation. Bath houses were very clean. Showers were spotless. We had a little problem finding a water spigot in the dark, but it was only 100 feet away. Checkin and out was a breeze. Lots of firewood avail for purchase.
My only negative was that I wish the Ranger would have come by much earlier to enforce quiet hours. we listened to loud loud music for several hours, from a campsite at least 1/3 mile away, for most of the day.
Other than that, we LOVED our stay.

Lovely campground. We went to kayak the local waters. We recommend the Silver River, Norris Lake and, of course, Juniper Springs. All absolutely gorgeous!
