Lovely park, much different than any of the others in this area. But much more to do. One of my favorites in old Pasco.

No but call the for more information. 👍
Yes but they must be under reasonable owner control ( a leash) and the owner must provide water and clean up after the animal.
Dogs are allowed in the park but they should be kept on a leash according to the rules. No problems with your dog camping with you.
Currently it's a Kabuto nest.

There was a story in the YouTube comments under an episode of Sasquatch Chronicles, where a man said his family seen a skunk ape near the bike trail. I've spent a lot of time in Starkey. I've camped alone in the remote campsites. If there was a skunk ape there, it may have seen ME, but I never seen him/her - lol. That comment was from around 2014 - 2016, and I cannot remember the actual episode. Whether you are a believer or not, it was still interesting.
yeah there's no enclosed area for dogs at JB Starkey park but there's plenty of areas to walk your dog on a leash and some very big open field you can probably lett the dog run around in a little bit
I think 15 a night but 100 percent.i actually just past thru the kiosk earlier and i meant to check otw out but forgot .
Yes! They have RV hooks ups
When I looked up the phone number you can go on the website and look up the phone number to JB Sparks Starkey park they told me to call the Holiday rec center to rent a Pavilion so I assume you would do the same thing call the Holiday Rec Center and you can go there and pay to rent a spot
No.
No they don't. There's a main public restroom building with an outlet and showers but that's it. The cabins have electric but I don't think they have water either.
No nothing... Bare... Bunk beds and glassless windows... And a door with a screen...
I have been to the park hundreds of times and I can say that every service or facility has been in perfect order. It is a beautiful place and I am not certain, I would be willing to go on a limb and say that they are probably pretty darn nice. Maybe not huge, however they really run a tight ship expect quality but not large.
First, without exception, you You must be a Liscensed pilot and the drone must be registered and properly labeled. Next, Call the park office and ask for a day of permission. The Ranger has no problem letting you fly if they have NO reservations for the park that day. I have a verbal no recording agreement, however they have never said "not" to record. Follow all Federal laws including top and bottom deck, proper flight etiquette, and properly operated Radio frequency use. Have fun and be safe.
When I was there 2 years ago it was like $35 per night
The code should be on your paperwork if not there is a station where someone can help or at least a phone number that you can call listed there
Yes, on the pasco county website
I have seen groups of people ride there but don't know anything about it try calling the park they might have more info
The information is on their Facebook page. The next one I see is September 29.
If you stay a week and want one more can you reserve a cabin again or can your spouse?
You would have to contact them. They do have a phone number. There is also a kiosk and someone will probably be there. Hope this helps.
Can you bring pop up campers ?
Great advise Lisa, Prepare for the night as well, lanterns too. I also take bikes.
Its very safe ive been going there since i was in middle school and i can't remember there ever being reports of anything happening there
The unleashed dogs in the park are not good !
Yes just have to keep on a leash or runner if i remember right
Nope, but there is plenty of room there though. Medard Park has a cool course, but it is in Brandon.
No sport events there
There are a few places to fish but its not known for fishing most the water that id accessible to the public are small channels of the anclote river
They are in fact non of the above answer with no visible ants the are not from snakes do to the lack of arms or feet to create any such mound armadillos do not create mounds. Moles are close but moles make tunnels not mounds. They are from pocket gophers the are the size of a squirrel with no tail. Harmless and rarely seen most often the create lots of mounds do to they come out of one and reburrow in another they cover the openings to keep predators from easily finding them.
no bathrooms or shower ,tent camping off the grid .
No pets in cabins or camping areas. Only daytime use areas with leash.
I don't know the combination but there is always a park ranger on the property at the big house.

Nature is a glorious decoration that humans can't compete with.
Yes there are cabins but only a few and I would bet that they are booked through Christmas by now but call the park office and ask. It is a beautiful park.
Nothing about it on their website or their Facebook page , they are only mentioning the event at safety town, don't think that they are doing it.
Cabins are $30-35 depending on what time of the year you plan to go. April-September is 30, October thru March is $35.
6p 10/20/17, 10/21/17, 10/27/2017, 10/28/2017 This is also known as "Scream Acres".
I would also recommend calling
I've spent a lot of time there with my family and friends, have not seen any bears. Although it wouldn't surprise me to hear of one passing through; it would be very rare for 2017. Lots of deer and gopher tortoises. Years ago there was a Florida black bear near the Hillsborough River close to Sulphur Springs, ecologists said it probably followed the river from central Florida. Starkey is beautiful.
Yes its open.
Trails are open but not passable. Water has pooled to nearly waist high at some points along the trails.
