1st time visiting while in the area. Nice place to venture out. Not very large bit has plenty of trails to walk. Picnic area in abundance. You need to bring insect repellent for sure. Great places to cast a fishing line too.

This was a beautiful Florida state park, with a nice campground full of lush plant life and palm trees. Lots of great places to enjoy the outdoors and wildlife within the park. We saw a gopher tortoise borrow near a picnic area. We hope to be back! Follow our full time travel journey through state and national parks on Instagram: @arndts.arent.staying.put

My husband & I love this park! It's many little picnic table spots situated along the Tomoka River, makes it the perfect place to relax & unwind after a long work week. It's a beautiful place to just sit & watch the sun go down. But, as peaceful & relaxing as it is, the one big reason we return again & again is due to the Tomoka Outpost store on the property. The store has everything you need & more for camping plus they have many watercraft rental options. They also have awesome cajun boiled peanuts, snacks, drinks (wine & beer as well) which can be enjoyed on their porch overlooking the water. The couple who owns the outpost are very friendly & accommodating & their dog "Cali" is super adorable! We love the park but the outpost is what keeps us coming back. @tomokaoutpost

Beautiful park - reminds us of something very tropical - and there's a really nice campground, but staff/rangers really leave a lot to be desired. The pros: very pretty park with a lot of space to walk or ride your bikes, plenty of water to put your kayak or canoe in. Very quiet park, not a lot of bright lights interfering with the viewing of some stars at night. Clean bathrooms, that are regularly maintained by camp hosts/volunteers. The cons: The most unfriendly and most unhelpful rangers we've ever met. They don't have friendly or hospitality personable personalities. Have a question? Better off asking a stranger. They'll be more helpful and friendlier. We had a package shipped to the park, with our site number clearly listed, and when we went to claim our package, I was told in the future to make sure to put our site number on there. I had to point out that it was. Perhaps he should have put his glasses on before scolding me. I didn't even get an "I'm sorry, I didn't see that". I just got a beligerant look. There are no paper copies of the trail maps. Ranger told us to take a picture with our phone... There are no designated cleaning times for the restrooms. One day it's 8 am, the next it's 10:30 am. It's always a guessing game! The ceiling fans in the restrooms are on - even on nights when the temperature is below 40 degrees. When we asked about turning the fans off at night because it was cold in the showers, we were told no because the bathrooms wouldn't dry and that moisture harbors germs. Are you kidding me?? There's plenty of ventilation in these restrooms, with screened openings for airflow. (The volunteers use so much bleach to scrub the restrooms that I highly doubt this is an issue!) The family/handicapped accessible restroom shower space in the middle restroom building is awful! There's only 1 hook for your dry items to be hung on while showering, and there's no bench to set your dry clothes, bag or whatever personal items on. You could set it on the floor, but then they'll get wet. Not very well thought out! The laundry facilities are affordable, but there's only 1 washer and dryer at each restroom/shower house building. There are 100 campsites. We were there for 14 days, there were multiple times we had wait for other campers to come back remove their laundry. (They were not paying attention to their load of laundry being done - had to wait over 30 minutes once. After that incident, I called it fair game, gave them 10 minutes after the cycle ended, then I put their clothes on top of the dryer for them.) It's a beautiful park, but we know for any future stays to bring a space heater to the restrooms, not to ask the rangers any questions, to bring our own trail maps, and to use off site laundry facilities.

Thanks! Your review is awaiting moderation.

Well-behaved dogs on leaves oods the requirement. FL parks don't have breed restrictions like some private campgrounds. Your dog just needs to be on a leash and not be aggressive.

Hello, Is this park safe?

Sig Thom | Jun 15, 2019
Marg Chauvin | Jun 16, 2019

It's a quiet Florida State Park. There are racoons and squirrels that might pilfer food if left out. You could encounter mosquitoes and snakes so being aware that you are in the woods is always advised. The park has access to a river and estuaries so watching little ones who don't swim is necessary. Safe from people? Generally campers are honest folks and I have never encountered a problem but you have to use your own judgement.
