Spacious campsites with picnic tables and fire rings, no BBQs. The famous Santos bike trails are found here! Enjoy!! Clean bathroom and shower area, no laundry that I could find.

Great biking

Rode from here and hit about 60% of the trails, maybe, then spent about 3 hours at the vortex section jumping. There are a good mix of options all over the place, the drops into the Vortex pit go from mild to very wild. It was a nice warm and moist 90 degrees and 85% humidity, just a perfect FL day in August for MTB riding. - would have liked to spent more time finishing the trails, but we will come back in January for that!

Small, open campground with RV hookups. The grounds are well kept, bathrooms were clean, and you don't need to drive to get to the trails from the campground. Mountain biking, hiking, and horse riding trails are all over the place. This is part of the Marjorie Harris Carr Cross Florida Greenway Rec Trails. Only downside is that about half of the camping spots at Santos do not have any or very little shade.

Is there an age limit

Randall F | Sep 10, 2018
John Allan | Sep 10, 2018

There is no age limit. My son learned to ride a bike really early (2.5 years) so he was there before age 3. My dad is 60+ and he rides there twice a week. Just use common sense and don't try anything, or have your kids try anything, that they're not ready for. Yellow trails are easiest, blue trails are medium, and red trails are hardest.

The Santos campground doesn't have a swinging area.

How many Camper/tent/vehicles are permitted in one site? And is there an overflow parking for guests?

Shane “Konehead” Kohnle | Sep 9, 2021
C Allison | Sep 9, 2021

Depends on what ranger is on duty and how busy the campground is. They are pretty lenient when they have extra room, but on busy weekends and holidays if they let one site bend a rule everyone wants to overdo it. Otherwise it's two cars or one rv and one car. If you are nice about it, other campers with one vehicle will usually let you park an extra one in their spot. (Overflow parking is east of the campsite loop.) Have fun!
