RV Camping near Chiefland, Florida

Manatee Springs RV Park

30 RV Sites

Manatee Springs RV Park in Chiefland, FL, offers 30 full-hookup RV sites with 30 and 50-amp service and room for rigs up to 65 feet. Sites come in four categories — small, standard, premium, and pull-through — all carrying water, sewer, and electric with site-delivered WiFi. Two things to know before booking: this is a 55+ community, and RVs must be fully self-contained, because there are no public restrooms or showers on the property. Laundry, propane exchange, and personal mailboxes are available, which tells you how many guests stay the season. The park is open all year and pet friendly, with a dog park. The setting is quiet by design rather than programmed — a place for picnicking, boating on the nearby river, and stargazing, with golf close by. Chiefland sits in Levy County, wrapped in the live oaks and Spanish moss of Old Florida, minutes from Manatee Springs State Park where the spring run meets the Suwannee River. Rates for monthly and seasonal stays are on the booking page. Confirm the 55+ and self-contained requirements before you reserve — both are firm.

Sun Resorts & Residences Southern Leisure

440 RV Sites, 5 Cottages

Southern Leisure in Chiefland, FL, offers 441 full-hookup RV sites and 5 cottages, with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and room for rigs up to 50 feet. Sites come in three categories — standard full-hookup, standard full-hookup pull-through, and oversize full-hookup pull-through — all carrying water, sewer, electric, and cable TV with site-delivered WiFi, on concrete pads. This is a gated 55+ community, open all year and rated big rig friendly. Laundry, a bathhouse with showers, a dump station, on-site dining, and golf cart rentals cover the practical side. Pets are welcome, with a dog park. The amenity list matches the scale: an Olympic-size outdoor pool, a clubhouse, a recreation center, a game room, sport courts, pickleball, bocce, shuffleboard, corn hole, live music, and planned activities, with creek frontage on the property. Chiefland sits on Northwest 21st Avenue, eight miles east of Manatee Springs State Park in the spring-fed Big Bend region of Florida. Golf, boating, a beach, and a lake are all nearby, and hot air ballooning and wine tasting round out the local calendar. Rates for sites and cottages are on the booking page. Confirm the 55+ requirement, and reserve early for the winter season.

Jasmine Breeze RV Park

2 RV Sites

Jasmine Breeze RV Park in Old Town, Florida, offers two full-hookup pull-through RV sites across four riverside acres on the lower Suwannee, with 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 50 feet. A single pull-through category joins a clubhouse, recreation center, laundry, community fire pit, walking trails, and dog park. Two sites are pull-through, carrying water, sewer, and electric on 50-amp with site WiFi, sized to 50 feet. One thing to check before booking: service is 50-amp, so bring an adapter if your rig runs 30. One consistent spec and no backing required. A laundry, restrooms, showers, and RV storage handle the practical side. A clubhouse, recreation center, community fire pit, walking trails, and dog park fill the grounds, with the river alongside for canoeing, kayaking, and fishing. Hiking, wine and beer tasting, a water park, and a state park are all nearby. Pets are welcome. Two sites on four acres means genuine privacy and quiet, which is the whole appeal of a park this size. Dixie County sits on the lower Suwannee River in Florida's Nature Coast, a stretch of the state that has stayed genuinely undeveloped. The Suwannee runs 246 miles from the Okefenokee to the Gulf and the lower reaches are wide, dark, and cypress-lined, with manatees moving up in winter. Fanning Springs and Manatee Springs State Parks are close, the Lower Suwannee National Wildlife Refuge protects the river's mouth, and Cedar Key's oyster and clam waters are within an hour. Gainesville is a similar drive northeast. Winter and spring drive the heaviest demand on the Nature Coast, with manatee season running November through March. Book well ahead.

Sunset Point at Cedar Key

59 RV Sites

Sunset Point at Cedar Key, Florida, offers 60 full-hookup RV sites on the Gulf waterfront, with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 40 feet on a big-rig-friendly layout. Categories are sized by rig length — 25 feet or less, 26 to 30, 31 to 35, and greater than 35 — with two waterfront tiers, a clubhouse, and a community fire pit. Sixty sites span back-in 25 feet or less, back-in 26 to 30 feet, back-in 31 to 35 feet, back-in greater than 35 feet, pull-through, waterfront 35 feet or less, and waterfront greater than 35 feet categories, all carrying water, sewer, and electric on 30 and 50-amp with site WiFi. Pricing and sizing by rig length is genuinely fair — a small trailer does not pay for space it cannot use, and a 40-foot coach knows exactly where it fits. Specify your RV size when booking so the park can match you to the right spot; sites are designed for rigs up to 40 feet. A laundry, restrooms, showers, and a clubhouse handle the practical side. A community fire pit fills out the grounds, with canoeing, kayaking, pickleball, and boating nearby and a state park close. The dark Gulf sky makes for genuinely good stargazing. Pets are welcome. Cedar Key is one of the Gulf Coast's most authentic, least developed, and most stubbornly independent small towns, set on a cluster of low islands. The sunsets here are so reliably spectacular that watching them is the town's daily event. Winter and spring draw the heaviest demand on the Nature Coast. Reserve well ahead for January through April.

High Springs RV Resort and Campground

52 RV Sites, 7 Tent Sites

High Springs RV Resort and Campground in High Springs, Florida, offers 52 RV sites and seven primitive tent sites minutes from Interstate 75, with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 90 feet. Six categories cover grass and paved back-ins and paved pull-throughs, with an outdoor pool and on-site dining, open all year in north-central Florida's spring country. Fifty-two sites run in grass 30-amp back-ins, grass 30/50-amp back-ins, paved 30/50-amp back-ins, paved 30-amp pull-throughs, and paved 30/50-amp pull-throughs, carrying water, sewer, and electric, sized to 90 feet. The grass-versus-paved distinction is useful — paved sites hold up better in Florida's wet season. Seven primitive tent sites cover simpler camping. Laundry, restrooms, showers, and WiFi handle the practical side, with on-site dining for meals. An outdoor pool anchors the on-site recreation, with a playground and walking trails across the grounds. The real draw is what surrounds the property: snorkeling, scuba diving, swimming, and fishing in the spring system, with hiking and boating nearby. Pets are welcome. High Springs sits in Alachua County amid one of the highest concentrations of first-magnitude freshwater springs in the world — natural limestone vents producing millions of gallons of 68-degree water daily, creating some of the most remarkable aquatic environments in North America. Gainesville's university culture is east, the Suwannee River's cypress-shaded corridor north, and a state park is close by. The resort is open year-round. Summer spring-diving season and the mild winter months both draw steadily — reserve ahead for holiday weekends.

Eleanor Oaks RV Park

55 RV Sites

Eleanor Oaks RV Park in Yankeetown, Florida, offers 55 full-hookup RV sites on the Nature Coast, with 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 45 feet. Back-in and pull-through categories join a solar-heated pool, marina, boat docks, fishing pier, kayak rentals, and recreation center in Levy County. Fifty-five sites run in back-in and pull-through categories, both carrying water, sewer, and electric on 50-amp with site WiFi, sized to 45 feet. One thing to check before booking: service is 50-amp throughout, so bring an adapter if your rig runs 30. Furnished rental accommodations round out the lodging. A laundry, restrooms, showers, firewood, RV storage, and boat storage handle the practical side. A solar-heated outdoor pool anchors the property, with a marina, boat docks, fishing pier, and kayak rentals opening the water for boating, canoeing, kayaking, and swimming. A recreation center, clubhouse, walking trails, playground, community fire pit, dog park, horseshoes, and corn hole fill the rest. Pets are welcome. Yankeetown sits at the mouth of the Withlacoochee River on one of the least developed and most ecologically intact stretches of the Florida Gulf Coast. The Withlacoochee Gulf Preserve is a 413-acre parcel of undeveloped wetlands — hardwood and pine, tidal marsh, and salt ponds — with a 30-foot observation tower and walking trails, and it is a short trip from the park. Crystal River's manatees and Cedar Key are both close. Winter is decisively the season on the Nature Coast, with manatee season running November through March. Book well ahead for January through March.

Southern Hammock

63 RV Sites

Southern Hammock in Reddick, Florida, offers 60 full-hookup RV sites two miles off I-75 in the heart of Marion County horse country, with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted up to 100 feet, open all year.

Sites come in various sizes and accommodate everything from the smallest teardrop to the largest Class A towing a car — 100 feet is exceptional capacity, and the dedicated transient tier is a useful distinction for one-night stops. A general store, laundry, propane fills and exchange, restrooms, and showers handle the practical side. An outdoor pool anchors the warm months, with a fitness center, clubhouse, sports courts, pickleball, bocce ball, shuffleboard, corn hole, a pond, and dog park filling the grounds. Planned activities run through the season. Pets are welcome. Marion County is the most productive thoroughbred breeding ground in the Western Hemisphere — more than 900 horse farms on limestone-underlain pasture, with the World Equestrian Center drawing international competition. Reddick sits between Ocala and Gainesville at Exit 368, which puts the farms, the springs, and both cities within easy reach. Winter and spring drive the heaviest demand as snowbirds fill north central Florida and the equestrian calendar peaks. Reserve well ahead for January through April.

The RV Resort at Orange Lake

136 RV Sites

The RV Resort at Orange Lake in Citra, Florida, offers 136 full-hookup RV sites with 30 and 50-amp service in back-in and pull-through configurations, with a lazy river, water park, boat ramp, and boat docks on the lake.

Birding along the lake is productive. Pets are welcome. The setting surprises visitors expecting the coastal or theme-park Florida they have seen advertised. This is thoroughbred horse country — rolling pastures shaded by centuries-old live oaks, iconic horse farms training on open tracks, and the pastoral calm of the Ocala region at its most quietly beautiful. Citra sits squarely between Ocala and Gainesville. The resort serves the North Central Florida season. Winter and spring draw the heaviest demand as snowbirds fill the state and the horse country's breeding and sales calendar peaks, with the lake recreation carrying summer. Reserve ahead for January through April.

Sharrah's RV Park

24 RV Sites

Sharrah's RV Park in Lake City, FL, offers 24 full-hookup pull-through RV sites with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and room for rigs up to 45 feet. Every site is a standard pull-through carrying water, sewer, and electric — nothing needs unhitching, which is exactly what an interstate park should offer. The grounds are gated. Pets are welcome, with a dog park. The park asks that if you ever need to call 911, you also call the office when you can so maintenance staff can meet and escort emergency crews to your site. Birding is the on-site recreation, and the setting is quiet enough for it despite the highway access. Lake City sits just off Interstate 75 in Columbia County at the northern edge of the Florida peninsula, where the longleaf pine and wiregrass flatwoods give way to the limestone karst country of the Suwannee River watershed. Rates and availability are on the booking page. Twenty-four pull-throughs on I-75 means a call ahead is worth the minute on a busy travel weekend.

Dreamin' 'n' Driftin' RV Resort

Dreamin' 'n' Driftin' RV Resort in Lake City, Florida, is a brand-new facility on 35 acres in Columbia County — a full-hookup pull-through campground with modern resort amenities at the I-10 and I-75 interchange that positions guests at the gateway to north-central Florida's extraordinary spring and river recreation corridor. Lake City's crossroads location between the Suwannee River, the Ichetucknee River, and the Osceola National Forest gives guests who stop for more than a single night the freshwater spring access, tubing, and natural Florida character that the crystal-clear spring systems of the Columbia and Hamilton County landscape provide in their most accessible and most spectacular form. Spacious full-hookup pull-through sites, a swimming pool, and the comprehensive modern amenities of a brand-new resort facility give guests the complete practical base for north-central Florida spring exploration from an I-10/I-75 location that makes Lake City one of the most practically accessible campgrounds in the state for travelers on Florida's primary north-south and east-west interstate corridors. The 35-acre property's new infrastructure — roads, utilities, and site layout built to current standards — gives big-rig operators and long-term guests the facility quality that new construction provides in a region where the campground inventory's age often works against comfortable modern RV sizes. Pets are welcome. Ichetucknee Springs State Park, approximately 30 miles west of Lake City in Columbia and Suwannee Counties, protects the Ichetucknee River's nine first-magnitude springs — springs that discharge a combined 233 million gallons of 68-degree water daily through a five-mile river corridor of extraordinary clarity, aquatic vegetation, and wildlife density that is simply one of the finest natural tubing and snorkeling experiences in the United States. The park's summer tubing operation from June through Labor Day manages the river access to protect the spring ecosystem while sustaining the float experience through two-hour and full-day tube floats that reveal successive springs, wildlife, and the specific sensory quality of cold, clear spring water in a North Florida summer. The Suwannee River, winding west of Lake City toward the Gulf, is one of the iconic rivers of the American South — immortalized in Stephen Foster's "Old Folks at Home" (Florida's state song), a genuine wilderness river whose tannin-dark water through cypress and live oak bottomland gives paddlers the specific blackwater Florida character that the spring-fed rivers contrast with in the same north-central Florida landscape. Canoe and kayak travel on the Suwannee through the Big Shoals section north of White Springs — Florida's only significant whitewater — provides the most adventurous paddling in the state's otherwise flat river network. Dreamin' 'n' Driftin' RV Resort serves guests year-round in Lake City's north Florida climate, where the spring and fall seasons from March through May and September through November deliver the most comfortable outdoor recreation conditions and the summer months bring the primary Ichetucknee tubing season that drives Columbia County's most intensive visitor activity. The Osceola National Forest, northeast of Lake City, provides upland pine and cypress dome hunting and wildlife viewing access for guests extending their north Florida stay into the national forest's 157,000 acres of managed public land. Reserve sites ahead for the summer Ichetucknee tubing season and the winter snowbird period when north Florida's mild climate draws the seasonal visitor market from the northeastern and Midwestern states.

Waldo RV Park

77 RV Sites, 90 Tent Sites

Waldo RV Park in Florida offers 77 pull-through RV sites and 90 tent sites with 30 and 50-amp water-and-electric service and rigs accepted to 80 feet, between Gainesville and the northeast Florida countryside. A lake, laundry, and showers serve a park whose all-pull-through layout and 80-foot capacity make it unusually easy for large rigs. Seventy-seven sites are pull-through throughout, carrying water and electric on 30 and 50-amp, sized to 80 feet. Two things to plan around: the sites carry water and electric but not sewer, so manage tank capacity accordingly, and the single-category all-pull-through design means no backing at any site. Eighty feet accommodates the longest coaches with a tow, which is rare at this scale. Ninety tent sites give the park an unusually large tent inventory — more tent sites than RV sites, which is worth knowing if you are traveling with a mixed group. A laundry, restrooms, and showers handle the practical side. A lake sits on the property, with offroading nearby. The amenity set is deliberately spare, which keeps the rate down and suits both through-travelers and longer rural stays. Pets are welcome. Waldo sits in Alachua County at the intersection of small-town Florida and the natural and cultural richness of the Gainesville corridor — the University of Florida, Paynes Prairie, and the region's springs are all within easy reach. Fall football Saturdays and the winter snowbird months tighten availability. Reserve ahead for those, with easy availability otherwise.
